Latest Tecate hotel reviews
briantravelman Says: Tecate isn't the sort of place you go for site seeing. Aside from Parque Hidalgo, the town's only tourist attraction is the old church on the corner of Miguel Hidalgo y Castillo and Pdte Lazaro Cardenas, just down the road from Parque Hidalgo. Since the church is the town's...
briantravelman Says: Tecate isn't really the sort of place you go for site seeing, as there isn't that much to see. Tecate is more of a place to go for a shopping trip. That's what we did, and that's what most visitors do. There are stores and street vendors located almost everywhere in the...
malianrob Says: From Tecate we took the Mexico #3 road and headed toward Ensenada. Along this road is called La Ruta del Vino. Along this road and in this area there are about 32 wineries. The best part is that wine tasting is free! I was so shocked when they told me this. We tasted alot of...
malianrob Says: When I came here on a Sunday afternoon the Brewery was closed. I saw online that there are free tours available here and a beer garden. There is also a train ride that goes from San Diego to Tecate. Pacific Southwest Railway Museum does these tours. I didnt do this train...
Don Benja - Master of the Pottery Arts
malecon Says: He's big, burly and as hospitable as your best friend. You pass his little shop on the left after about the third mile from Tecate on Highway 3. With the help of his daughters this family business thrives, in part due to its outstanding location.When I first walked up to Don...
Where the locals go for a cold one
malecon Says: It's not fancy by any means, but the Diana Bar is the place to go for a drink or two or three. American's pour into this place like an obligation. There's not much to it. Just a bar, a bartender, a few picures on the wall, a jukebox, billiards, and a picture of a naked woman...
Parque Hildalgo; where tourists and locals mix
malecon Says: There once was a small town named Tecate. This town was so small it didn't give you reason enough to stop there. Now you can't find the town for a city has grown up around it. Population 100,000. There still isn't a whole lot to do but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy...

Hotel Rosita Resort Inn: DANGER- HOTEL ROSITA- YOU MAY NOT RETURN HOME!
jaat12or Says: The worse experience of my life! My family stayed in a suite and i stayed in another one bed room. The family members in the Suite were entoxicated by gas. The laundry room is right down stairs and even though the people from the hotel were told about a weird smell they just...
Mqb12345 Says: Tecate is a town just south of California on the USA-Mexcio border. Tecate basically changed my view of mexico. The only towns i have been to in Mexico is Juarez, Tijuana and Tecate. I expected Tecate to be similar in chaos because it is still Mexico. I felt completley safe...
cptgerard Says: This was a surprise along hwy 3 just south of Tecate. My friend and I visit Tecate at least twice a year for the shrimp tacos at Chemel's. We usually camp on the US side at Potrero Campground. This weekend, Dec 21, 2007, it was just too cold and windy, so we started to look...
Rosita Resort Inn Hotel: As good as it looks
malecon Says: And I thought I was familiar with all of Tecate's hotels. On a shopping excursion down Highway 3 I discovered this fabulous hotel towering above the road. I walked in and inquired about rates and asked if I could walk around. I was very iimpressed. Then, on my next trip to...
Motel El Dorado: Friendly and comfortable accomodations
malecon Says: My stay at this motel went flawlessly. Matter of fact I would recommend it to others. In a town with few, if any, moderately priced hotels, this motel is a good find. After several passes through town I settled on this motel. It beat out one other that costs more, was newer...
Poncho's: Best tacos in Tecate
truenarnian Says: Your classic open-wall Mexican taquiera. Plastic furniture, exceptionally friendly staff that speak a little English. The tacos here are the best in Tecate. Get your taco with flour or corn torillas, any of several meat filling. Their fried green onions are great, and for...
El Paisano: Best tortas in Tecate
truenarnian Says: First, you need to know what tortas are: take a Mexican bun (large, oval-shaped, and flat) which is sliced open. The inside surfaces are spread with mayonaise, and then put on a grill to brown. When the buns are golden, the cook takes chopped, seasoned beef and heaps it onto...

Q: As previously suggested, a day trip to Tecate sounds interesting. What are some of the main things "to do or see" and is it easy...
A: It's been a while since I was in Tecate, but there's not a lot to "see." Still, it is a border town, though not as large, popular or gaudy as Tijuana. I think the five...

I can't figure this place out; there's something new to discover around every corner and over every hill, literally. The more I experience the town of Tecate the more I realize how much there is to......

I worked at an orphanage for special-needs children in an area about 50 miles south on the 3, so I passed through and spent time in Tecate fairly often. A nice middle-sized town situated on hills with...

There is a border crossing here, but it's very small, only 2 booths... you're better off crossing the border in Tijuana, since it has multiple lanes and booths. There is a beer garden as well as a......
