This spot easily makes one of my top favorite stays. Imagine your ultra-cool, celebrity friend saying, “Hey, come crash at my fabulous vacation home for the weekend.” That’s exactly how this boutique hotel felt. It’s stylish, intimate, and totally relaxing. There’s even a speakeasy just for the hotel guest! The location? Super walkable. The vibe? Effortlessly chic. But what really made the stay unforgettable? The staff. With only eight rooms, the service was next-level—like they read your mind before you even knew what you needed. BIG SHOUT OUT to Natalia, Angel, Alex Jorge, Guetta, Evelyn, Elena, Sofía, Elsy, Don, Jorge and boss chica running the show Mercedes! Every meal was a hit, the cocktails were delicious, and the design of the rooms? Chef’s kiss. One heads-up: some rooms don’t have windows—but that’s part of the charm. This isn’t just a hotel, it’s a beautiful authentic home that’s been lovingly transformed into something truly special.

Having to leave!

The Hotel: A beautiful property with stunning original architecture and decorative details—truly candy for the eyes! The magnificent traveler’s palm trees in the courtyard were absolutely striking. Room: Very comfortable overall. Good a king-size bed, a spacious bathroom with enough amenities. Quietness: Despite being on a busy street, the inside of the hotel felt completely insulated from the noise of traffic. Room is very quite ( without the AC on) Location: Quite good. While the street itself isn’t particularly interesting, the hotel is just a 10-minute walk from the city center. The walk is safe, even at night. Parking: A paid private parking lot was available at another property right next door , and the cost was quite reasonable.

The AC is a bit noisy, but acceptable The mini bar's pricing is Switzerland level.

Location is wonderful, really close to everything. The room was very clean, the pool was lovely and the bartending staff who made drinks were delightful . It is an oasis from the outside noisy streets.

Room service was poor, food cold and not tasty. I think some of the staff is very young, inexperienced and definitely not schooled in the hospitality business, it basically felt like a bunch of kids running the hotel. Not a 5 five star experience, I'd say a solid 3 star.

Gorgeous property, well maintained and clean. Staff is very kind and friendly. Natalya and the hotel manager were especially great helping us not only with Merida but also Mexico.

The shower was not getting hot, but only warm. This needs to be fixed. Also the pool area needs a shower. This is especially useful if you are checking out and still have a flight later. It is hot in the city and it would have been amazing to take a shower before heading to the airport. Saying this, we would still 100% recommend this hotel and its friendly staff.

Excellent location, gorgeous rooms and building. Staff are excellent, friendly and helpful, even arranged a driver from Mérida to our next stop in Quintana Roo. Breakfasts provided are tasty and fruit is fresh and delicious. Water always available in the lobby. Beds large and comfy. Shower is gorgeous with it's own skylight. Mini bar prices not crazy if you don't fancy the trip to the shops. Great stay in centre of town a short walk from a number of restaurants and the cathedral

WiFi was slow on some days and we had issues connecting to the TV.

This hotel is a hidden gem in the downtown of Merida. Besides the beautiful architecture, detailed interior design, spacious and comfortable rooms, wonderful mattresses and quietness, the service is one of the kindest and attentive we’ve encountered. Everyone was amazingly available, since our late arrival at 1 am, fulfilling all our requests and preparing our meals at the previously agreed time (punctually to the very minute). We’re great fans of small boutique hotels and this one has definitely won our hearts. Highly recommended ❤️

Nothing really, other than it doesn’t offer its own parking. That situation was quickly overcome, by using the next door hotel’s parking space.

Absolutely beautiful property built around an elegant old colonial home and extended into a modern hotel. There’s a beautiful terrace restaurant/bar overlooking the pool and we found it completely relaxing. The continental breakfast was delicious and if you want more choices, you can order separately from the menu. Also, the staff went out of their way to look after our comfort. We would love to return some day!

This hotel is a hidden gem, an Oasis in the middle of Merida downtown area. The hotel is beautiful, every single detail of the architecture and interior design is stunning and unique. The staff are always welcoming and very friendly and professional. The location is perfect! A few block from downtown main square and a few block from Paseo Montejo and el corredor gastronómico.

This boutique hotel was exceptional. The staff, the the style, the smells, the small touches in the room itself, everything. It’s right in centro so we were able to walk to restaurants and shopping. Despite being in centro it was super quiet in the hotel. I highly recommend this place to any type of traveler.

There is absolutely nothing negative I can say about the place.

Stunning hotel, wonderful side. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. My son has a food allergy and they were so sweet we and careful the whole time. It’s cleaned every day of the stay, and the location is ideal for exploring downtown/old town. Delicious breakfast made to order. We would absolutely return.

Nothing. It was great.
