Perla La Paz, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

Originally designed by engineer Menandro Cárdenas and opened in 1940 as part of a community-led effort to help build a new future for La Paz, Hotel Perla became the first major hotel in what was then the Southern Territory of Baja California and quickly established itself as a gathering place for residents and visitors alike. Over the decades, generations of travelers and locals celebrated milestones within its walls, from weddings and family celebrations to business meetings and social gatherings, cementing its place in the city's collective memory.

Today, Perla La Paz embraces that legacy through a thoughtful restoration that preserves the spirit of the original building while reimagining it for modern travelers. The hotel's signature pastel-pink façade welcomes guests to interiors that draw inspiration from its Art Deco heritage and seaside setting, blending natural materials, Mexican craftsmanship and contemporary design with sweeping views of the Gulf of California.

Operated by Hamak Hotels, the hotel's past remains an integral part of the guest experience. A dedicated "Memory of Perla" space showcases historic photographs, timelines, books and stories that chronicle both the evolution of the property and the broader history of La Paz. Contemporary works by internationally recognized artist Alex Proba and Mexican ceramics studio Cerámica Suro create a bridge between the hotel's past and present.

The guest experience is anchored by a variety of dining and social venues. Guests can enjoy La Terraza, a full-service restaurant serving classic Mexican comfort cuisine, the same menu and recipes that have been served for generations. Set on the waterfront along the Malecón, it has long been a multigenerational gathering place, where the dishes have been enjoyed by locals and visitors alike for years.

Perla is the hotel's signature dining experience, where refined details meet an easygoing, unpretentious spirit, built on a deep collaboration with local fishing cooperatives, sustainability, and responsible, seasonal fishing.

Additional amenities include a heated rooftop pool overlooking the waterfront, an intimate SPA and a state-of-the-art fitness center. The hotel also offers more than 4,600 square feet (430 meters square) of flexible indoor and outdoor spaces for meetings, weddings and social celebrations, making it an ideal destination for both leisure and group travel. Together, these offerings create a balanced experience for travelers seeking relaxation, exploration and connection to the local community.

Positioned along the city's celebrated boardwalk, the hotel places guests within walking distance of local restaurants, shops and cultural attractions while providing easy access to some of the region's most sought-after natural experiences, including whale shark excursions and tours throughout the Sea of Cortez. The hotel's waterfront location offers sweeping views of the Gulf of California, creating an ideal base for leisure travelers exploring the destination.
