2 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2012

The rooms in this hotel seem to be made of paper. It is very noisy. The beds are rock-hard. The room smells moldy. The only reason this hotel got 2 stars instead of 1 is because the staff was very nice.

My wife and I backpacked through southern Mexico (Mexico city to Cancun) during April 2012. We chose this hotel after a miserable stay in Casa Mexicana the night before. I thoroughly enjoyed this hotel and just loved San Cristobal. Cost was $1550 pesos (13.2 to the dollar) using my credit card. The front desk personnel/ bellboy are learning English and... More

The 4 star hotel that, despite its excellent location, is an enigma. It is either trying very hard to be a 4 star but doesn't have a clue how to achieve it or, assumes it is a 4 star and is failing miserably. The mere fact that the Manager turns-up for work at 11am and leaves at 3pm is probably... More

I travelled to San Cristobal de las Casas for a conference, and found this hotel to be a perfect haven in the midst of the city. It's well-located only a block from the main square, and provides easy walking to most of the city's areas of interest. From here, you can reach more than a handful of amazing churches, two... More

Very comfortable hotel, in a good location. Not a great value for money but there are cheap and stinky hotels in san cristobal, so beware.

The Hotel has a lot of potential, but who on earth would put the master suite next to a loud salsa bar? The music went on till 2am, and I felt like the musicians were in the bedroom with me! The staff thought the whole matter hilarious and were very unhelpful and also untruthful about how long the music would... More

This hotel is lovely as it built in a traditional Spanish building dated back to the 16th century. However, there are a lot of hotels along the streets between bus station & the main square. As our main purpose is to walk around the city & visit the nearby Mayan villiages and tour to Palenque, we can actually stay in... More

I stayed here with my family during the week of Christmas 2005. Its located about 3 blocks from the city square and has a small church right across the street. Inside and out this is a clean and safe hotel with helpful staff. The room we had was a rustic looking room with a king bed and two single matresses... More
