What class! We really enjoyed our stay here even with the loud audio system from a shop across the road! Okay, and yes, with tepid showers - but really it is hot in Merida! Having hot showers is probably bad for you. Any gripes are totally overwhelm by just how stylish this place is - you feel like Fidel is... More

While visiting the Mayan countryside during the 1990s, I happened across the Gran Hotel while exploring Merida. The elegant woodwork and marble staircase struck me, and I promised myself to stay at the Gran Hotel de Merida someday. That someday arrived during January 2011, when my wife and I were guests at the Gran for three nights. The Gran’s location... More

Rooms renovated, clean with very comfy beds. Toiletriesmprovided and the hotel has an ellegantnfeeling.Staff quite indifferent. Didn't seem to care much about guests. More

This hotel is great. As soon as you walk in you feel you go back in time. The stairs are magnificent, the tiled floors so shiny! Oh well, what i loved the most were those huge old wooden doors. When we got there we got upgraded to a Jr. Suite with 2 bedrooms and balcony with view to the little... More

This kind of hotels are usually either closed (because too old and shabby) or five star and really expensive. But in Merida everything is different, time seems to have come to a stop in the 1960s (1960s rugs and furniture in the rooms) and in the lobby you feel propelled back to 1901 when the hotel was built: beautiful furniture,...

The Gran Hotel looks like you want a Gran Hotel to look like, which has been build up over 100 years ago! The moment you walk into the inner courtyard you feel like jumping into a old picture. The hotel offers rooms with windows to the street or rooms which have only a window to the inner courtyard and the... More

We stayed our first night in Merida at the hotel next door, which was a few dollars cheaper. Big mistake. We moved the following morning to this charming and elegant 100 year old plus beauty. The entry courtyard reaches up three stories, accessed by white Carrera marble stairs and ballustrades, surrounded by columned interior hallways that all open out into... More

When we walked into the lobby of this gorgeous retro relic, my husband and I just smiled and decided we had to stay there. It's just beautiful, clean, and fresh. We had spent the previous few nights in a budget hotel called The Trinidad which had a lovely lobby, but the room was pretty bad...especially the bed, linens, and towels.... More

The hotel is lovely, well-renovated but still with a historic feel. The room tiles are original, so some are chipped. If you are looking for a spanking new place, this is not it. We loved the slightly antiquated decor reminiscent of the early 1900s. High ceilings, good-quality linens. All was well until the music started in the square below. Two... More
