A four-star colonial-style hotel of about 85 rooms on Avenida Domingo Ruiz, two blocks from the Chiapa de Corzo plaza and three from the embarcadero where Sumidero Canyon boats depart. It has an outdoor pool, a spa, and a restaurant, and it is the closest full-service hotel to Tuxtla's international airport.
Hotel La Ceiba is a four-star colonial-style hotel of about 85 rooms on Avenida Domingo Ruiz in Chiapa de Corzo, Chiapas, two blocks from the town's central plaza and three from the embarcadero where boats depart for the Sumidero Canyon. The property is built around courtyards and gardens in a style echoing the colonial architecture of the town, with an outdoor pool and a small spa offering massage treatments. Rooms run from Standard to Junior Suite, with Triple Rooms for families, and all are air-conditioned. The on-site restaurant serves regional Chiapaneco dishes alongside standard Mexican fare, and a business centre supports small corporate bookings. La Ceiba's main advantage is proximity: it sits closer to Tuxtla Gutierrez's international airport than most San Cristobal hotels and is a short walk from the canyon boat launch, making it a practical base for travellers combining an early canyon tour with an onward flight or drive into the highlands.

Tips for visiting
- Book the earliest canyon boat tour, around 08:00, to see the most wildlife before midday heat and larger crowds.
- The embarcadero is walkable from the hotel, so there is no need to arrange a taxi for canyon tours.
- Confirm airport transfer times in advance, as flights out of Tuxtla can be early.
- Request a garden-facing room for quiet, away from the plaza-facing street.
Accessibility
The hotel's courtyard layout includes some stepped walkways between garden sections, though ground-floor rooms are available; guests with mobility needs should request one at booking.
