The 50 best bed and breakfasts in Merida

The noisy and dangerously loose ceiling fan looks like it is about to fly off of the ceiling, and Indiana Jone's style decapitate you. I had to switch it off as it was so loud, we couldn't sleep, and I was worried it was going to go flying across the room. Lots of random noises from the street such as dogs bark, police sirens, and motor bikes. The best part was that after leaving a verified review on Booking.com the owners sent a message to my girlfriend complaining about our honest and accurate review (no doubt they will follow up here too). Basically, this place is overpriced for what it is, the staff go home at 6pm so if you have any issues you have to phone a number and hope somebody picks up. The internet is good though, so well done there. There is parking on the street, there is no private parking.

Beautiful B&B! This place is in a good location and the property is so nice and well taken care of with a pool and many areas to sit. It’s a little oasis back there. Breakfast was tasty and staff were super friendly. When we booked through Delta Stays it said there was parking so I assumed a parking lot, but there is only street parking. If we are ever in Merida again we will return!

Beautiful place. The photos don’t do it justice. Lovely atmosphere. Aaron was very helpful. I felt very looked after. A little outside the center which liked because it was quite and I found some nice restaurants and jazz club I might not have found otherwise.

This is a wonderful bed and breakfast. It is in a quiet neighborhood that is still close to tourist areas. Aaron, the manager, was helpful and had a lot of good suggestions for places to eat and things to do. The place is cute and the interior patio and pool are well appointed and relaxing. We enjoyed our breakfast every morning. Definitely would stay here again on my next trip to Merida.

Not surprised that this is the leading bed and breakfast in Merida. A place with a lot of love to all the details and the atmosphere is great. The host is super friendly and makes him one of the greatest hosts that we met in Mexico. So if you are planning to stay in Mira then this is the place to go. It is also very close to the centre and you can get there by foot. we will come back and thank you all for this great stay at your place and the great talks. Wish you all the best.

If you're looking for a place to stay in Merida, search no more. This truly is the one you're looking for. We stayed here for 3 nights and we would go back immediately. Amazing, big rooms with the best beds, super friendly service, staff is very interested in your plans for the day and loves giving some extra local tips. And when they breakfast, just amazing. Every day you get something different, fresh as ever. We're going back some day! Thanks for a great stay!

If you are looking for a place to stay in this wonderful city, pick this one. Location wise is perfect. A lot of Merida places of interest are on walking distance. It's also located in a quiet place so our nights were relaxing and restful. The hosts and staff were amazing and really friendly. They had plenty of tips and suggestions on what to do to maximize your stay. Our room was cozy, bright, full of lovely colors and clean, they also come with AC which is really nice since the weather is very hot. Breakfast was tasty and fulfilling. There was plenty of coffee to drink. I definitely recommend this place. Thanks to the owners for making us feel at home.

(Translated by Google) Comfortable, super clean (the rooms smell delicious) and quiet, if you are looking to rest comfortably, this is the perfect place. The attention from the team was excellent.

We recently stayed here and absolutely loved our experience. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Our two favorite things about our stay was; the fresh cooked breakfast in their beautiful courtyard and the location, it’s close enough to walk to any restaurant/bar you would like to go to in Merida. - Also, Juan was a wonderful host that is happy to help with any recommendations you may need 4.5/5

We loved our stay in this hotel. The rooms vere beautiful with big beds and hot showers. The staff was very nice and they prepared very tasty breakfast ♥️

This hotel is a literal oasis in Mérida. Absolutely stunning hotel that offers a really nice breakfast. The whole outside area is really lovely. The owner of the hotel has a true passion for hospitality. On the first morning we had a great server for breakfast. I left my purse and he literally ran after me down the street. The following morning unfortunately the service was very slow, and all the servers hid in the kitchen so you often would have to get up and find them for anything. Apart from that, this place is wonderful. If you're thinking of booking, don't hesitate! Thank you Juan!

The location is incorrect on google maps, which they know about, but it’s not until you pay your reservation that they let you know. It show to be in the downtown area but it is far away from there.

Great place to stay in Mérida. Beautiful rooms and swiming pool area. They have only a few rooms, so it’s very peaceful. Friendly staff and good breakfast.

My family stayed at Casa Dos Lirios for a week - the rooms and bathrooms are spacious, clean and private, and the A/C was the quietest I have ever experienced! The beds are incredibly comfortable. Sue and Steve are amazing hosts and the breakfast each morning was delicious. Merida is a lovely city and a great base for exploring the Yucatan. We saw cenotes, the beach, and the Maya ruins at Uxmal, all within an easy drive from Casa Dos Lirios. The location in the Centro part of Merida is perfect for exploring the city - easy walking distance to the historic sites, cool restaurants and fun bars. Cannot recommend highly enough - our stay was perfect!

Hôtel 15 min walk from the Centro really comfortable, the reception Maya the receptionist is very kind and helpfull and the miss ou make the breakfast do excellent Omellette I recommend it :)

We had an amazing stay! The private room was like a little apartment away from the main house. The beds are very comfortable. There is loads of room and the air conditioning is excellent. The pool is nice and the outside area is calm and quiet with lots of birds. The kitchen facilities are excellent with free coffee and water and cooking facilities available. It felt more like being welcomed into a home than a hotel. An oasis in the city!

Beautiful house with an amazing patio and design. The host is so lovely and makes you feel like home. It is also located very well with only a few minutes into the city centre, where you can find all the restaurants and bars. Only thing: when you have the room with the balcony on top, it can be very noisy because of the cars and motorcycles passing by. So if you're sensitive to noise, ask for an apartment without balcony. But it was no big deal for us because we were very tired after a long day and had oropax.

I so enjoyed my time at Casa Lool Beh, Ananda and Jose felt like family. I appreciated the energy of the home and hosts, even their dogs, who were so sweet and well behaved. The pool was just perfect and the vibe was perfect after having travelled for awhile. I extended my stay here as I wasn't ready to pack up and leave. There's a great cantina a block or so away and the location is perfect, walkable to centro (10 mins) and quiet home. Thank You for helping to make my stay in Merida so memorable 💖 💕

Easily our favourite hotel so far travelling in Mexico. The friendliest owners in Ananda and Jose. We really liked when we first arrived, they gave us a tour of the hotel and introduced us to guests which is always helpful to make it less awkward. The rooms are really nicely decorated, with a great desk to work from, really good cupboard space, perfectly working wifi and a cute little bathroom (with hot water if needed although the water naturally heats up so isn't really ever needed). The rest of the house is really clean as well, my girlfriend did a yoga class downstairs which was really good for only 100 pesos, and use of the kitchen was really helpful for breakfast, and free coffee! Last but not least, in the boiling heat that Merida seems to have (when we were there it felt hotter than anywhere else) they also have a lovely pool at the back of the garden perfect for cooling off. Wait, ONE MORE thing, they also have 2 really fun well behaved loving dogs Valentine and Rulo.

The accommodation is great and Ananda and José are amazing hosts. We felt super comfortable from the first moment. The location is ideal to get to the city quickly by foot. In the super cozy garden with pool, it is very good to relax after day trips. Rooms are functionally furnished and very clean. The coffee in the morning promises a good start into the day 😉. In short; there is a great energy and we liked it extremely well. We will definitely be back!!!

Best stay ever. The house of Ananda and José is so cute and welcoming. We felt like home. Ananda took time for us to explain all the specifics of the house. And we had a pdf with all the recommandations, tones of Books in the house in case of you are looking for something to do. Thanks a lot Ananda ! The room was clean, comfy and big enough to feel at ease. With the air conditionair, ceiling fan and a private bathroom. We slept very well. It was so quiet🛌🧡. We had the posibilty to make us thé or café. We used the pool everyday. It felt so good because Merida is really a hot city. You can also do Yoga if you are up to. The location was very good(10 min walking from the center!) To sum up it is a little paradise in the Merida city where you can rest properly. Recommandation 100%🔝🔝🔝⏫⏫❤️ Hasta proxima y muchas gracias !

One of the warmest, feel at home places I ever stayed. From the beggining Jose and Ananda will make you feel welcome, it is indeed and experience to stay at 'casa loolbeh' the central location is just the beggining, the garden with pool at the back of the house is like an oasis in the middle of the busy downtown streets of Merida, bed is super comfy and the indoor spaces of the house are lovely and quite large. The hosts have such a nice and relax personality, they know their way around, they gave me excelent recomendations for local activities, not to mention their 2 dogs which are the soul of the house, if you are a pet lover you definitely need to know these fury fellows. Thank you for a wonderfull couple of nights, it was surely a plus of my trip to meet you guys.

From the moment we booked, Dave was in touch with great tips—even connected us with a car service from our hotel in Cancun, which made everything so easy. When we arrived, Dave, Patrick, and their sweet pups welcomed us like old friends. Their home is gorgeous, tucked into a real neighborhood but just a short walk to great restaurants and everything we wanted to explore in Merida. They had the best food recommendations, and breakfast each morning was something we looked forward to—not just the delicious food, but the chance to chat with them and the other guests. One of the highlights was a tour they put together just for us—a perfect mix of history, a stunning hacienda, and a cenote swim we’ll never forget. It’s easy to see why people fall in love with Ochenta y Dos. We came as guests, and by the time we left, it felt more like we were visiting friends. Thank you, Dave and Patrick—we can’t wait to come back.

A beautiful house with all the charm of Mexican architecture, and modern comforts. The details, furnishings and decor are unique and harmonious and the hosts warm and welcoming, the rooms face a patio with a fabulous pool and the bed and bathroom were very comfortable. A truly relaxing and enriching experience.

Review Ochenta y Dos is a true gem. Tucked away on a fairly quiet street, yet it is close enough to all the main city attractions. It is an easy 30 minute walk to Calle 47 (the new culinary district), Plaza Grande (the main city square) and Parque de Santa Lucia (the Thursday night concert area with excellent restaurants). Uber service to and from was easy and quick. David is an excellent, attentive host. He communicated clearly and frequently (using WhatsAp) before our arrival. He served a chilled welcome drink upon arrival, and prepared a delicious, hearty breakfast each morning. The dining room is a visual treat - curated full of beautiful art and a collection of “carry-on treasures” from their travels. The room was spacious with a comfortable king bed along with a plant-filled open-air shower in the ensuite. The little things really add up. The bed linens have been carefully chosen to ensure a good night’s sleep (not too hot, not too cold). The pool is clean and heated. The magazines convey a wealth of local intel. The music playlist throughout the day is perfect for relaxing. Various seating areas throughout (the main house patio, the pool deck, and outside each room) create little vignettes that welcome you to slow down and enjoy a glass of wine. It was a truly wonderful stay. Thank you David!

This was such a lovely and perfect place for our family to stay during our visit to Merida! Dave and Patrick were amazing hosts and we truly enjoyed meeting them and exploring the area. Dave was a wonderful guide who took us on two excursions that we will always remember. The pool was gorgeous, the breakfasts were amazing, and the rooms were extremely nice! We especially appreciated the beds - so comfortable and high quality. Thank you so much.

*Must like dogs! There are 5 of them from 2-17 years old. David and Patrick are wonderful hosts who made us feel welcome in their small, peaceful oasis near downtown. This place is friendly, relaxing, and casual, not fancy. The pool is heated and we were welcome to use it at all hours. David arranged a masseuse for us one night. He makes delightful breakfasts. There is a steam room and a rooftop. Parking is free on the street. The location is convenient.

5 out of 5 for Ochenta Y Dos! From the warm welcome, to the excellent breakfasts, luxurious accommodations and divine swimming pool it’s the perfect stay in Merida! Dave and Patrick took very good care of us the entire stay with great recommendations and linking us up with a private driver. They are the epitome of class and warmth, cannot recommend enough! We hope to be back!

Warm, relaxed atmosphere. The room Is comfortable with refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and very comfortable bed. Steps from the room is a heated pool. The breakfasts were delicious. Dave is a great cook and tour guide. We went on three different excursions to popular travel sites with Dave. There is a steam room, weight room and massage room on property. There are only three guest rooms so it is quiet and easy to get to know the other guests. A great place to unwind. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Uber is readily available in Merida and inexpensive. There is no need to walk any where. We often did walk to the Main Street. It is about a one mile walk. Long enough to get some exercise.

We spent just over 2 weeks travelling across Mexico and our stay at Nuik Casa Tropical was the best one without any doubt. We loved what Claudia (the owner) did with the property - it felt very much authentic and cosy, yet modern. Our room was very big and spotless, with a large bed (which is not that common in Mexico). The outdoor space, with a small cute swimming pool and plenty of greenery really made our stay something special. The only weak point is the location - half an hour walking to the center. Besides that, absolutely recommended!

One of the best places to stay in Mérida! Nuik is just a tropical paradise, beautifully decorated and developed to take you to relax mode. Claudia and her staff are kind and attentive, making you feel at home. I'm grateful for the hospitality and attention and can't wait to come back🙏😊

Absolutely wonderful stay at Nuik. It's a very unique property that is extremely tranquil yet close to everything in Mérida. Rooms are quite comfortable, breakfast delicious, pool very nice to cool off from the heat, but the highlight was undoubtedly the kindness received from Claudia and her team. Very, very welcoming and professional. Highly recommended.

Nuik is the place to stay in Merida. The design harmoniously integrates modern comforts with the history of the house. And the host Claudia is wonderful. I am sure you will have an unforgettable experience.

Nuik is a true hidden gem! Claudia has clearly put a lot of time and attention into every little detail. The space is beautiful and relaxing, truly designed with a lot of taste. The rooms are spacious and really comfortable. The team is lovely and attentive. Claudia helped us with planning a beach outing outside of town with great recommendations, and was also really helpful and present when my partner got sick from travelling. Really couldn’t recommend this place more for your stay in Merida!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an absolutely enchanting experience at Boutique Hotel Casa Nuik! From the moment I stepped in, I was captivated by the charming ambiance and impeccable attention to detail. Claudia, the owner, is a true gem – her warmth and dedication to ensuring a memorable experience for her guests shine through. The personalized service made me feel like a cherished friend rather than just a visitor. The rooms are simply furnished, combining modern comfort with a touch of local flair. Every corner of the hotel seems to have a story to tell, and I loved exploring the unique decor. What truly sets Casa Nuik apart is its central location – nestled in the heart of the city, making it a perfect launchpad for exploring local attractions. Claudia's recommendations for nearby restaurants, cafes, and adventure tours were spot-on. If you're seeking a boutique hotel that seamlessly blends luxury, warmth, and cultural immersion, look no further than Casa Nuik. My time there was nothing short of magical, and I can't wait to return. Thank you, Claudia, for creating such a haven for travelers!

Staying here was an exceptionally peaceful and magical experience. The meticulous attention to detail in creating an oasis was evident in every aspect, making it one of the most enchanting places I've ever stayed. The hosts, with their kindness and helpfulness, transformed the stay into a genuine "home away from home," offering valuable recommendations that enriched our exploration of the city. This hidden gem not only provided a beautifully crafted space but also a warm and inviting atmosphere, a true respite from the exhaustion of travel and chaos of the city. It's a unique haven where thoughtful design meets genuine hospitality, a truly unforgettable travel experience.

(Translated by Google) Superb, perfectly decorated hotel (it's an annex of Kuka y Melpa, with the same reception). Located a 10-15 minute walk from the central square (no security concerns for those who have that concern). You can park your car on the street. The hotel's atmosphere is cozy and quiet. The room was a good size, the bed very comfortable. A large shower with hot water. We had a wonderful, quiet night's sleep. Breakfast is prepared fresh for all three rooms, but it takes a long time to serve. (Original) Superbe hôtel parfaitement décoré (il est une annexe de Kuka y Melpa, la réception est la même). Situé à 10/15 minutes à pied de la place centrale (pas de problèmes de sécurité pour ceux qui ont cette crainte). On peut garer la voiture dans la rue. L'ambiance de l'hôtel est cosy et calme. La chambre était de bonne taille, le lit très confortable. Une grande douche avec de l'eau chaude. Nous avons passé une excellente nuit au calme. Le petit déjeuner est fait à la minute pour les trois chambres de l'hôtel, mais il est du coup assez long à servir.

100 percent Recommeded. Great in all categories. We will always stay here

(Translated by Google) Very well-kept structure in vintage Mexican style. The welcome was warm and attentive to all the details, the house where the rooms are is very cute, with a beautiful internal atrium with a small pool and lots of greenery. The room is small but very comfortable, huge and very comfortable bed and spacious bathroom with a fantastic shower! It is a bit decentralized but we were with a rental car so it was not a problem. The area at first sight can inspire some fear but it turned out to be quiet, after a bit of settling in you feel perfectly safe! Highly recommended!!! (Original) Struttura curatissima in stile vintage messicano. L'accoglienza è stata calorosa e attenta a tutti i dettagli, la casa in cui sono le stanze è carinissima, con un bell'atrio interno con una piccola piscina e tanto verde. La stanza è piccola ma molto comoda, letto enorme e comodissimo e bagno spazioso con una doccia fantastica! È un po' decentrato ma eravamo con un auto a noleggio quindi non è stato un problema. La zona alla vista può incutere qualche timore ma si è rivelata tranquilla, dopo un po' di ambientamento ci si sente perfettamente al sicuro! Consigliatissimo!!!

(Translated by Google) I'll start with what I liked: The decor and design of the house has a unique touch. The bed was comfortable. The staff is friendly, with details I'll get into later. The sandwiches they left ready for us the next day were fabulous. It's like being in your own home; you have a quiet living room, a kitchen with the basics, and the pool is a must. The bathroom amenities smell delicious of honey. You can see out the windows perfectly, but inside you have complete privacy. The neighborhood where it's located is quiet; there aren't many businesses nearby, but it's easily accessible and offers the city's characteristic security. What could be improved: Communication among the staff. I met at least four people, and it seems they didn't leave everything out. For example, due to the construction issue next door, they offered to compensate us by choosing some services at no additional cost. The first day did happen, but the second day wasn't what we expected. Due to an issue with the bathroom, it took them a long time to fix it, wasting time that, at least because we had a tour, we couldn't afford to wait long. The solution was to change rooms, which took longer than expected. After that, they sent me a message saying someone from reception would meet me, but that never happened. At checkout, I was expecting something and they just told me to leave the key on the kitchen counter. Cleaning the refrigerator should be a priority; there were leftover food and dead mosquitoes inside. If they had left us wipes or something to clean it, it would have been possible. The day we were leaving, the door was open because the batteries had died, so anyone could have gotten in, which is unlikely, but not impossible. I don't recommend it during the week; only on weekends when the builders are resting and there was no noise or materials in the yard or going up the stairs. I hope they finish their next project as new and this one is just as charming. For the price-quality, for the time and the details, I considered other options. (Original) Empezaré por lo que me gustó: La decoración y diseño de la casa, tiene un toque que la hace única. La cama fue confortable. El staff es amable con detalles que después entraré en materia. Los sándwiches que nos dejaron listos para el día siguiente, estaban fabulosos. Es cómo estar en tu propia casa, tienes una sala de estar tranquila, una cocina con lo básico y bueno la piscina ya es el must. Los artículos de baño con un aroma delicioso a miel. Puedes ver perfectamente hacia fuera de las ventanas, pero hacía dentro tiene toda la privacidad. La colonia dónde se ubica es tranquila, no hay mucho negocios cerca pero de fácil acceso y con la seguridad que caracteriza a la ciudad. Lo que puede mejorar: La comunicación entre el staff, al menos conocí a 4 personas y parece que no se dejan dicho todo. Por ejemplo por el tema que tienen con la construcción de al lado nos ofrecieron compensar dicho tema escogiendo algunos servicios sin costo adicional. Que el primer día sí ocurrió, pero el segundo ya no fue lo esperado. Que por un tema que hubo en el baño, tardaron mucho en solucionarlo, perdiendo tiempo que al menos por tener un tour no podíamos darnos el lujo de esperar mucho. La solución fue cambiarnos de habitación qué nos hizo demorar más de lo esperado, después de ello me mandaron un mensaje en dónde alguien de recepción iba a presentarse conmigo, pero eso jamás ocurrió, a la hora del check-out esperaba algo y solo me dijeron que dejará la llave sobre la encimera de la cocina. La limpieza del refri debería ser prioritario, había restos de comida y mosquitos muertos dentro de el. Sí nos dejaran toallitas o algo para limpiar se podría hacer sin problema. El día que nos íbamos la puerta estaba abierta, por qué las pilas se acabaron así que bueno cualquier persona podría entrar, poco probable más no imposible. Entre semana no lo recomiendo, sólo en fin de semana que los albañiles están descansando y no había ruido ni material en el patio o subiendo las escaleras. Espero que acaben nuevo con su próximo proyecto y este igual de encantador. Por el precio- calidad, por el momento y los detalles consideró otras opciones.

(Translated by Google) The place itself is very nice. The rooms are well-appointed and the breakfast is very good. Unfortunately, I have to give it a negative review because we had agreed with José Antonio to refund one night's stay due to ongoing renovations, but after 90 days, the refund hasn't arrived. (Original) Il posto in sé è molto carino. Le stanze ben arredate e colazione molto buona. Purtroppo devo dare una recensione negativa perché avevamo concordato con José Antonio un rimborso di una notte causa lavori in corso nella struttura, ma dopo 90 giorni il rimborso non è mai arrivato.

(Translated by Google) The hotel is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. We were upgraded to a larger room and the hotel offered us free breakfast throughout our stay, as there was construction in the house next door between 9am and 5pm. The hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from the central square. I highly recommend it; there is no better hotel for the price. (Original) L’hôtel est magnifique et le personnel est très sympa. Nous avons été surclassé pour une chambre plus grande et l’hôtel nous a offert le petit déjeuner gratuitement tout notre séjour, car il y avait de la construction dans la maison voisine entre 9h et 17h. L’hôtel est à 10-15 minutes de marche de la place centrale. Je recommande fortement, il n’y a pas meilleur hôtel niveau qualité-prix.

(Translated by Google) Excellent hotel, delicious breakfast, cooked in front of you. Caffe de Olla is a must-try. I messed up the safe, but the staff was kind and helpful, and resolved the issue efficiently (just let them know they didn't have a spare key). Recommended! (Original) Ottimo hotel, la colazione squisita, cucinata a vista. Caffe de Olla assolutamente da provare. Ho combinato un casino con la cassaforte, il personale gentile e disponibile a risolvere il problema con efficienza(unica cosa, avvisare che non avevano la chiave di scorta) Consigliato!

I stay at this hotel often. It is in a great location, rooms are large, free continental breakfast and pet friendly. Great restaurants eithon walking distance.

Couldn't find it. Only the back door. My feet were too sore to go around the block.

(Translated by Google) This very nice property has a kitchen and refrigerator, the microwave oven does not work and there is no one to take care of you in the house. (Original) Esta muy bonita la finca tiene cocina y refrigerador el horno de microondas no funciona y no hay nadie que te atienda en la casa.

(Translated by Google) The service is excellent. The people who served us were very attentive and polite. The only thing I didn't like was that Casa San Juan isn't the hotel. One is the hotel and the other is the house. It's in a different location than the hotel, and although the facilities are very nice, I think it's necessary for each bed to have an electrical outlet nearby so you can plug in chargers or electronic devices. There is a terrace at the house, but that's all it is. It doesn't have a view of anything. (Original) El servicio es excelente. Las personas que nos atendieron son muy atentas y educadas. Lo único que no me gustó fue que la casa san Juan no es el hotel. Uno es el hotel y el otro es la casa. Esta en una ubicación diferente al hotel, y aunque las instalaciones estan muy bonitas, creo que es necesario que cada cama tenga cerca una instalación eléctrica para poder conectar cargadores o dispositivos electrónicos. Hay una terraza en la casa, pero solo es eso. No tiene vista a ninguna parte.

(Translated by Google) The hostel 10/10, very comfortable and cute, if you are not picky and a traveler or backpacker, I highly recommend it, the staff is very friendly and the breakfast is excellent. (Original) El hostal 10/10 muy cómodo y lindo, si no eres quisquilloso y viajero o backpacker lo recomiendo mucho, el staff muy amable y desayuno excelente

(Translated by Google) He hosts well, good attention. They just need to fix some details with the bathrooms (Original) El hospeda bien, buena atención. Solo falta que arreglen algunos detalles con los baños

(Translated by Google) Excellent hotel...nice, nice, clean...has a small gym...excellent location one block from the convention center (Original) Excelente hotel...agradable, bonito, limpio..tiene un pequeño gym.. excelente ubicacion a una cuadra del centro de convenciones

Amazing boutique style hotel. Casa Tunkul is a newly renovated property with spacious rooms that feature very comfortable beds. Juan does a great job making you feel welcome. Highly recommend this stay for anyone visiting Mérida.

Really enjoyed the stay at Casa Tunkul, the cozy/unique touches of an Airbnb but also the services of a hotel. Juan is very easy to communicate with over WhatsApp.

(Translated by Google) The room was spectacular, in general everything was very good! Besides, it is in an excellent location if you are looking to explore Mérida! And the host is very attentive to your needs! If I would stay again! (Original) La habitación espectacular, en general todo muy bien ! Aparte se encuentra en una Excelente ubicación si buscas recorrer Mérida ! Y el host muy atento a tus necesidades ! Si me quedaría de nuevo !

Best hotel we stayed in Mexico. Super clean, freshly renovated, spacecious, beautiful interior, good pool to refresh and kind owner. You see in the room they thought of everything (luxurious shampoo conditioner etc, all utensils needed in the Kitchen, many Kitchen appliances like cappuchino maker). Safe location, 10 minute walk to the centre.

(Translated by Google) It was a very pleasant experience. Juan was super friendly from the first day. We arrived before check-in time and were greeted without any problems. The hotel has three rooms, one of them a single room, and a shared terrace and pool. We were there for a short time, but we had a great time. The hotel bed was super comfortable. The room is a good size and has practically everything you need during your stay. The hotel is very nice; the decor and architecture are in keeping with the city. I would definitely return there again. (Original) Fue una muy grata experiencia, Juan fue súper amable desde el primer día. Llegamos antes de la hora de Check-in y sin problema nos recibieron. El hotel cuenta con 3 habitaciones, una sola y terraza comunitaria y alberca. El tiempo que estuvimos fue corto pero la pasamos muy bien. La cama del hotel súper cómoda. La habitación es de buen tamaño y cuenta con prácticamente todo para no requerir algo extra en la estadía. El hotel está muy padre, la decoración, la arquitecta del lugar va acorde a la ciudad. Sin lugar a dudas volvería ahí en otra ocasión.

One of the best places we stayed in in Mexico, very nice and recently built room and welcoming people.

(Translated by Google) Very clean, completely new - we felt very comfortable! (Original) Sehr sauber, komplett neu - wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!

Great location and a nice enough hotel. It's clean and the staff are helpful. Water is only warm at times not hot and the bed is very hard. It's located nest to a hostel that can be quite loud until 2300. The breakfast is pretty good and the grounds are nice. Adding double glazing for noise, fixing the hot water and upgrading the bed would make this place a gem.

Charming, elegant and understated hotel that spreads across three beautifully restored old town houses. Delightful and dedicated staff help to create a perfect urban refuge

The place was good for a weekend trip to merida. Great location, super close great restaurants, rooms are comfortable and clean, common areas and pools are great. Parking was included. Price is right. just booked it again for my next weekend trip to merida in a few weeks.

Everything about this Hacienda turned Hotel was stellar. It was quiet and peaceful, with tons of historic character, while still only a few blocks from some of the main areas and restaurants in Merida. The rooms are clean and spacious, with air con and wifi. The hotel bar and restaurant was only open at certain times, which meant that nothing too "rowdy" happened in the evenings and you could really wind-down after a long day of travel or exploration. The menu is limited but delish - the margaritas are freshly made with love and the huevos montulenos at breakfast are amazing. Plenty of towels in the room as well as by the pool areas (of which there are 3)! There is free parking in a gated garage about a block away - very convenient and safe. Most importantly, the staff at Hotel Hacienda was superb. Every morning, afternoon, and evening we were greeted with smiles and well wishes. When we asked questions, no one blinked an eye at helping us. I would recommend this hotel to all my friends and family.

Very nice ambiance! Very quiet and serene, until the weekend when the music travels over from the Cuban Restaurant next door. Rooms clean, with both AC and ceiling fans. The bed was comfy. Would stay there again.

Excellent location and amazing service! Staff takes care of each guest on a personal level. Beautiful pool area and cozy bar. Close to everything in a safe area. Stylish, tasteful decor. Cuban establishment next door had music in the evening, which I found quite entertaining.... it was also over before 10pm, so not a disturbance.

Loved it! The team was amazing and we felt Like we were in our own castle. Highly recommend.

Absolutely Outstanding Experience! My stay at this hotel was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, every detail exceeded my expectations. The breakfast was a real highlight—delicious, varied, and beautifully presented each morning. The rooms were incredibly stylish, spotless, and offered a peaceful retreat after a busy day. I was especially impressed by the quiet atmosphere and the thoughtful design touches throughout. The staff truly made my stay unforgettable. They were unfailingly friendly and genuinely attentive, always ready with a great recommendation yet never intrusive. Upon my arrival, they had already made a dinner reservation for me at a wonderful local restaurant (with no obligation, of course), which was a delightful surprise and made me feel truly welcome. All in all, I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. Every aspect was simply outstanding!

You have to stay at this hotel. You will not regret it. My amazing experience began even before I arrived. Sara, the owner, reached out to me personally to offer special options for my stay. When I got there, her staff greeted me with a warm welcome, a tour, and a drink and snacks—the perfect start after a long flight. The hotel itself is marvelous. The design is thoughtful, and the spacious, comfortable rooms feel luxurious and peaceful. Fresh flowers and plants add a beautiful touch. The hospitality is truly phenomenal. The staff is top-notch and their kindness shows in every detail, from the kind notes and cookies left in my room to the daily cleaning. They even gave great recommendations for places to see and eat. The breakfast is also fantastic; you can tell the chefs are passionate about what they do. They truly go above and beyond. I mentioned I was celebrating my birthday, and they surprised me with decorations in my room. This hotel takes the time to get to know you. This is the best hotel I have ever stayed at, and I can't recommend it enough.

I’m not entirely sure how hotel star ratings are determined, but if ever a place deserved five stars, it’s The Diplomat Hotel. From the moment I arrived, I felt comforted. That may not be the word most would choose, but for me, it's everything—especially when landing somewhere new. I had a very rough flight into Mérida, one that left me quite ill, and I’ve been carrying the weight of some deeply stressful personal circumstances. So to find myself in a space so serene, so welcoming, so impeccably maintained—it felt like a gift. Every element of The Diplomat feels intentional. You can sense the love and thought behind it all. There’s a story behind each piece of furniture, every fixture, and the small daily rituals that make the experience feel quietly luxurious. And the soul of the space is its people. The staff are not only gracious, they are deeply thoughtful—and that spirit begins with Sara, the owner, whose presence is as integral as any design choice. She sets the tone, and it ripples through the entire experience. I spent two days of my stay recovering from that difficult arrival, and they cared for me in a way that went far beyond hospitality—checking in often, bringing ginger tea, offering ice packs, and making sure I felt safe. It wasn’t just service. It was care, offered with heart. I couldn’t recommend The Diplomat more, and I’m already looking forward to the day I am able to return.

A Magical Honeymoon at The Diplomat Boutique Hotel!! My husband and I finally took our long-overdue honeymoon to Mérida, Mexico this past January (2025), and we had the absolute pleasure of staying at The Diplomat Boutique Hotel. I think it's taken me this long to write this review because I’ve missed it so much — I cried the day we left. The hotel itself is clean, beautifully designed, and perfect in every way. It feels like a true oasis. Neil, Sara, and the rest of the staff could not have been more gracious, welcoming, and kind — they made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. As a big foodie who also eats gluten-free, I was blown away by the breakfasts — each one was fresh, flavorful, thoughtfully prepared, and tailored to my dietary needs. Truly, truly, truly top-notch. If you're looking for a magical, memorable experience in Mérida, please do yourself a favor and stay here. You will not be disappointed. We are counting the days we can go back!

A fantastic boutique hotel set in beautiful surroundings. Sara and Neil are the perfect hosts. They recommended a number of great restaurants and cantinas and helped organise our sightseeing trips with Argel, a very knowledgeable guide. All the staff were very friendly and helpful - and the breakfasts were spectacular! Muchas Gracias!

Absolutely the best hotel, minus a gym, i have ever been to. The rooms have very very high ceilings and are incredibly charming. Fresh flowers everywhere. The service was unmatched anywhere in the U.S. They were over-accomodating. The meatless breakfast was perfect. They gave me and partner (girlfriend) recommendations for restaurants, bars, and attractions. They even had daily free tequila (various types). The location is a little out of the way of the main tourist attractions, but it costs close to nothing to catch an urber. This was an incredible find. If you ever go to Merida, stay at the Diplomat!!!!!

What an amazing hotel! The staff were impeccable and friendly. They went above and beyond for our stay as well as helping us arrange an outing. There is honestly not a better place to stay in Merida!

I'm struggling with this review. The owners meant well and tried hard but at the end of the day it was one of the more expensive places we stayed and therefore gets greater inspection. Firstly, when you arrive in 30deg heat after 5hrs of travelling you just want your room, you don't want a 20min lecture on the languages of Mexico. We couldn't ever get in or out without a conversation and perhaps we just didn't want that level of scrutiny. It's a bit run down, especially the garden and nobody would ever go near that pool. We didn't get a hot shower the whole time there. The breakfasts where nice but again accompanied by continuous conversation. I am sure some people would love this.

I rate this b&b five stars mainly because the host Gina & Jean-Pierre were the best, very friendly and informative. We had two rooms and really enjoyed our stay. The place is about five long block from the main plaza, however nothing much really close by. The Uber ride to the close by restaurants was only $3 or $4 US dollars. There are a couple of negatives, there was no water and/or hot water on several occasions. Jean-Pierre tried to stay on top of this but it was definitely a problem. The back patio could be really nice but was not upkeep and the pool was not usable. I enjoyed my stay there but feel obligated to point out these problems

Our stay at La Pantera Negra Bed & Breakfast/Galleria was delightful. The owners Gina and Jean-Pierre are very kind. They are also quite knowledgeable about the area and will gladly recommend different things to do while staying in Mérida. The continental breakfast they provide daily was just the right amount of food and was very tasty as well. It is centrally located at about a 10 minute walking distance to the main plaza, the market, the bus station, and different restaurants. My wife and I truly enjoyed our first time staying in Mérida and would return & stay here in the future! ~ Hugo & Vero

An interesting, quirky place that is a B&B and an art gallery at the same time, operated by the owners. The place is quiet, located in the working class neighborhood not far from the centre. Our room was comfortable, except for a few small issues. The breakfast is served with love and is accompanied by some good stories about Merida's history, but not very good for its own merit.

During our 2 month trip throughout Mexico, this was the best accommodation. The interior is beautiful and well-kept. The rooms are tasteful and comfortable. Breakfast is French-style with local ingredients, and they accommodate personal dietary requirements. They are helpful and have great recommendations on where to eat and what to see and do in and around Merida. The prices are also good value for money. Jean-Pierre and Gina are the best hosts ever! Next time we come to Merida, we wouldn't think twice about booking this place again.

This was a great place to stay in Mérida ♥️ It is well kept. The art is great as well as the atmosphere and the rooms are clean. Jean-Pierre and Gina provide a wealth of knowledge of the area and their recommendations were awesome. They also have 2 loving doggies, Chavela and Mostaza. We would definitely stay here again.

Jean Pierre and Gin were the perfect hosts. The location was great, as it was a few minute walk from the ADO bus station, and within 10 minutes to the main Square.

Judy was so welcoming. I appreciated having a private balcony but also really enjoyed chatting with other guests in the courtyard after breakfast.

Nice location, near to main plaza, but far enough away to avoid noise. The house is spotlessly clean and well maintained by very friendly American expats living the dream, who will go out of their way to help make your stay memorable. Good aircon in our room and nicely decorated. Breakfast was great - something different each morning.

We spent three nights at Casona 66 and couldn't be happier with our choice. The location is fantastic, only a 5-10 minute walk from the main square and easy access to the market and Paseo de Montejo. The owners and hosts, Judy and Danny, are a wonderful couple. They've done a fantastic job renovating this historic building; once you walk in the front doors, you're in a beautiful and very cozy home. We had the Esmeralda room on the top floor, which was spacious and very comfortable. Every morning we enjoyed delicious coffee and breakfast prepared by Judy. We'll definitely stay with them again on our next trip to Merida.

We spent 5 nights at this charming boutique hotel and loved every minute of our stay in Merida! Our hosts Judy and Danny were fantastic and fun (and I love thier kitties Zuzu & Luca 😊). The hotel is absolutely stunning and had the cleanest and most comfortable rooms we’ve seen through our travels in Mexico. The location near the historic center is perfect! And Judy makes the best coffee accompanied by an amazing breakfast I can’t recommend this place enough! We will definitely be back to Casona 66!

Amazing place! A lovely little hotel in the heart of Merida. You'll remember the superior service from owners Judy and Danny for the rest of your life. Enjoy the atmosphere, the comfort and Judy's masterpiece breakfasts😊

Excellent stay. Wonderful retreat from the hectic El Centro hussle and bussle. Modern rooms. Comfortable bed. Great water pressure. Blackout curtains. Shower has textured tile on the floor. No worry about slipping. Hot water. Good WiFi. Very friendly and attentive staff. Well maintained pool. Crystal clear water. Great value. I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed my 4 days here.

Exactly what you think of when you book a B&B. Warm and friendly, generous space, lovely surroundings, location can’t be beat. Then there’s the breakfast - WOW!

If you can avoid this place do it, they advertise free parking not parking at all, you need to park on the street at your own risk. They advertise luxury boutique not true, we tried to go to the upper terrace the bar was in terrible conditions. Excellent staff good breakfast,good location.

Thank you for a lovely stay at Rosas y Xocolate. Our room was right next to the pool which felt like a real treat, as we could enjoy the peaceful atmosphere just off the bustle of the Main Street. Even though there were 3 of us in the room it felt like there was plenty of space, with a separate bedroom and lounge. The staff were friendly and attentive, and patient with me trying to practise my Spanish. We really enjoyed the complementary breakfast, including a hot drink, juice, pastry, and an option from the extensive menu. I would particularly recommend the smoked salmon bagel. The location was perfect, about a 20 minute walk to the main square but lots to see closer too. This was a perfect start to our trip across the peninsula and would recommend Rosas to anyone considering a trip to Merida.

My stay at Rosas & Xocolate Boutique Hotel and Spa in Mérida was a delightful experience that left a lasting impression, thanks to its unique charm and warm hospitality. Nestled in the heart of Mérida, this boutique hotel stands out with its breathtaking architecture and distinctive style. The fusion of colonial elegance with bold pink and chocolate-hued accents creates a visually striking ambiance that feels both luxurious and whimsical. Every corner of the property, from the lush courtyard to the meticulously designed rooms, showcases a thoughtful blend of modern sophistication and Yucatecan heritage. The attention to detail in the decor—think vibrant tiles, artisanal touches, and elegant furnishings—makes it a haven for anyone who appreciates aesthetic excellence.The staff at Rosas & Xocolate deserves high praise for their friendliness and professionalism. From the moment I arrived, they were welcoming, attentive, and eager to ensure my stay was comfortable. Whether it was offering recommendations for exploring Mérida’s vibrant cultural scene or accommodating special requests, their service added a personal touch that elevated the entire experience. The on-site amenities, including the spa and the restaurant, further enhanced my stay. The restaurant, in particular, served up delicious dishes that beautifully blended local flavors with a gourmet twist, making every meal a treat.However, there was one peculiar aspect of my stay that stood out for the wrong reasons: the hotel’s deposit policy. Upon checking in, they charge a deposit, which is fairly standard, but by the end of the stay, they retain a single cent from the refund. This practice felt odd and unnecessary, and it’s something I haven’t encountered at any other hotel I’ve stayed at worldwide. While it’s a minor amount and didn’t significantly detract from the experience, it left me puzzled and slightly annoyed, as it seemed like an unusual quirk for an otherwise polished establishment.Overall, Rosas & Xocolate is a fantastic choice for travelers seeking a boutique hotel with character, style, and heart in Mérida. The stunning architecture, exceptional staff, and unique vibe make it a standout. If you can overlook the odd deposit practice, this hotel is well worth a visit for a memorable stay in the Yucatán. I’d happily recommend it to anyone looking for a blend of luxury and local charm!

This is a really charming hotel in a renovated mansion on a beautiful avenue. I stayed in the master suite - it was bright and airy, had massively high ceilings, was comfortable and spotless. (I did get an upgrade and for those of you with Bonvoy status, the staff did a great job of recognizing and valuing me throughout my weeklong stay. They were helpful, courteous and attentive) Crisiant, the Sales Manager, was particularly helpful. He contacted me promptly after my booking to assist with spa appointments and suggesting and arranging excursions. His assistance was valuable in planning my visit, as I had done little to no research before booking. The hotel's location is convenient for exploring the city. Paseo de Montejo is beautiful, offered a good base for walking to many city attractions and experiencing the local area. There are so many really good restaurants and shops in easy walking distance. It's a really great choice for a more than comfortable stay in Mérida.

I came for the food and dispute all of the less than 5 star reviews, I still went. I have to say the food was fantastic!! I got the Eggs Benedict and the chef did not disappoint!!! From the perfect hollandaise and poached egg to the mimosa...Fantastic!! The service was also top shelf. I was afraid to try the coffee because of all the bad reviewers who complained about the coffee, food and service but I'll definitely try it the next time I go back. If the coffee is the only thing that some people gave bad reviews, I'll skip it!

We always stop by here to get their pear salad. The other food was very good as well.

I've always had a rather ambivalent regard for the Pet Shop Boys. Whilst their tunes are undeniably catchy their lyrics often humorous and clever they are equally often let down by a rather laboured rhyme or a clichéd phrase. However, I've often found myself quoting the line from the song Left to My Own Devices that states "...learn to ignore what the photographer saw" and that's what you need to do at Rosas and Xocolate. Rarely has a website been so misleading. See photos. There certainly aren't any Roses and no Chocolate either 😕 😄 But let's start with the positives. The hotel staff are accommodating and polite (special mention for the breakfast server Sophie) with a comprehensive breakfast menu of decent quality and the location is very good. That's it. Now the reasons I wouldn't return. In general the hotel is unloved and poorly maintained. On arrival, the lobby had a large broken glass candle holder, the corridor had dirty glasses on the floor that remained untouched for over 24 hours and our room (the Master Suite) was tired and inadequately maintained. On arrival, the power shorted, the toilet leaked (this was fixed) the coffee maker didn't work (this too was fixed - but by turning off the refrigerator) and the bed linen faded and poor quality. The breakfast courtyard was dirty and unswept and the windows generally needed a good clean. The overall feel was one of decline and neglect which is unforgiveable in any establishment but given the prices being charged it almost amounts to theft. Read my other reviews; you'll see I'm not given to unnecessary criticism nor over reaction to a single incident of  bad service. There's another lyric from the Pet Shop Boys song Shopping that goes "...our gain is your loss, that's the price you pay". This might just sum up the Rosas and Xocolate experience. P.S. I'm honestly not a big Pet Shop Boys fan.

The hotel could be charming, but it’s old and poorly maintained. It has a strong waxy smell (and you can’t open the windows) and a musty odor. The elevators are extremely outdated, and we didn’t feel safe using them. The first room we were given was dirty and very small for three people. They moved us to a different room for the next two nights, which was better, but still, it’s overpriced for what it offers. They had placed a duvet on the mattresses (perhaps to make them feel softer), but it only made us sweat more than anything else. Given the condition of the hotel, we didn’t feel comfortable using the pool. The only positives were its location and the friendly staff. However, in that area, there are many newer hotels available for the same price.

Great location walking distance to great places and amazing restaurants. Everyone was nice a polite. Common areas adorable. Rooms need a little update. Best shower ever great water pressure and hot water!!

Hotel has potential but is quite dated and needs maintenance and upgrades to justify the price. The pool area and two other nooks are pleasant. The staff are good and the restaurant is very good. Basically overpriced for what you get.

No wifi past the ground floor. The outlet for the fridge didn't work. Cleaning staff was excellent (Candy), hot water was hot, and funky elevators. But with El Gran Hotel and other places within the same price within the area, I don't plan to return.

This is a review/complaint about the clothing store at Casa Del Balam. Beware of the pricing. I purchased a blouse that I thought was marked $700 pesos but later found out I was charged $4000 pesos. When I went back to return the blouse and get a refund they told me I would have to go through my credit card company to challenge the charge. I have done this and the merchant keeps telling the credit card company that it is a legitimate charge and they will not credit my account. I made another trip to the store and spoke with a different employee who told me the blouse I purchased should only have been $1400 pesos, not $4000 that I was charged on the previous day. If you go there make sure you know what they are charging as none of the items are marked so they can claim whatever price they want.

Outdated and bad service. First of all the communication and service is substandard. When we arrived at the hotel it turned out the pool was out of order. We weren't notified about this before checking in, there was nothing they could do about it. The day after when we wanted to leave the parking lot, there were roadworks going on making it impossible to leave. This also wasn't communicated with us! When asked about this there was nothing they could do for us. We just had to figure it out. You would expect a little more compassion and better service when faced with these problems. The lobby is very outdated and the bathroom is not clean. I would not recommend going to this hotel if you're looking for a hassle-free and accommodating stay.

We stayed for 2 nights at this place. The ladies at the reception are super friendly and helpful! First night in room 110 was similar to staying in an outdated youth hostel: no natural light, mould in the bathroom, bad smell, not clean. The second night, we got another room, 407: more natural light, very poor breakfast (do you actually call this a breakfast?) same bad smell, no option to open a window, completely outdated bathroom (must not have updated since somewhere in the 80s) and by surprise we both got BED BUGGS. Doctor insisted to leave the hotel immediately. The owner of the hotel refused to pay back the money we paid for the 2 remaining nights. We contacted our travel agent and changed to the hotel in front where we paid similar price for so much more value. We were unable to meet other guests who were positive about their experience… one advise: do not consider to book a room here.

I can’t say enough good things about this oasis in the city except when can I go back? I was contacted one week before my stay via WhatsApp to give me some very helpful arrival/check-in information. They also arranged for a masseuse to come to the hotel and were available for any questions I had. The location is a bit far from the center (20min walk), but I didn’t mind because I like exploring on foot and staying in a quiet area. After a hot morning traversing the city, it was amazing to come back to the rooftop pool and quiet ambiance away from the hustle and bustle of the zócalo (city center). I booked directly on their website and breakfast was included in my rate. The portions were very generous, the presentation was beautiful, and the food was excellent! The rooftop room with the private terrace was incredibly comfortable, clean, and quiet. It has excellent A/C and the decor was quirky yet inviting. Not only is it a beautiful property, but the staff – especially Michelle, Angel, and Perla – are outstanding! They were always available and took excellent care of me. You could tell they all enjoyed being there. I even left my retainer there and they kindly worked with me to send it back to the U.S.!

I recently stayed at this beautiful hotel in Mérida, Mexico, and I was beyond impressed! The property is absolutely gorgeous—every corner feels thoughtfully designed, with a charming mix of local character and elegance. The rooms and common areas were spotless; you can tell cleanliness is a top priority here. The food was outstanding as well—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, making every meal a treat. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. Most of the staff are fluent in English. I can’t wait to come back! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

A fantastic experience to say the least! From the moment you walk in you’re greeted with a friendly face, a welcome drink and the best scent we’ve smelled thus far in our travels! Thank you to Darwin, Frank, Michelle & Jennifer for making our trip so special and memorable! The hotel itself transforms you from a city street to an oasis! Do yourself a favor if you’re traveling to Merida, BOOK HERE!

Can only recommend this hotel to anyone and especially people that appreciate design and attention to detail. It is such an oasis of calm in busy Merida and from the interior design to the service and the food everything is perfect. We will be back !

This beautiful hotel is definitely worth a visit!! The location is wonderful, so close to Centro without all the noise. We walked everywhere while we stayed here and it was so easy to get around. If you're not used to walking you can drive but parking around El Centro is difficult. Now back to the hotel upon arrival we were greeted by the most amazing scent. The hotel lobby, rooms, and communal areas are beautiful and tastefully decorated. The whole staff was amazing. We got to work with Michelle the most at the front desk, Perla was our server on multiple occasions, Frank was also super nice and helpful. The housekeeping team was also wonderful! Michelle was friendly and attentive she welcomed us with drinks and showed us to our rooms. Perla was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Frank recommended great cocktails for us and shared so much about delicious local liquors. The food at the restaurant was amazing! The presentation and flavor were on point. The kitchen has the cochinita pibil down to a science. It was by far the best cochinita I had in Merida. I loved our room it was so big and had high ceilings. I will absolutely be returning and can't wait!

An absolute gem! The decor is fantastic, the pools are small yet extremely well designed, and the rooms are simply amazing. Probably one of the best hotels in Merida!

I love everything about this hotelito in Merida. The decor is beautiful, the rooms are super comfortable and the staff is incredibly nice and hospitable. The food is also exquisite! They have a beautiful rooftop with a pool perfect to cool down in the hot days and just relax and enjoy the moment. If you’re visiting Merida and are looking for a nice tranquil hotel where you can feel right at home, I would highly recommend Cigno as a top option.

Excellent hotel - would stay here again in a heartbeat. Everything was good: location, room, service, and AMAZING breakfast (take the menu, it does cost a bit extra but 10000000% worth it). Also would recommend pre-booking (before your stay) a mezcal tasting! Pool is also lovely.

This place is a must, lovely hotel, staff going the extra mile from check inn, restaurant, bell boys etc. This is a 9 room hotel so you feel at home all time, surroundings are walkable with a pizza restaurant and a bakery just around the corner, will go back for sure.

Excellent !! Get Boutique hotel in a great location. The staff is excellent! Delicious breakfast. Mario was our waiter every morning and he was a pleasure. Told us allot about the culture which we really enjoyed. The rooms are great and enjoyed sitting by the pool.

This excellent hotel offers spacious very well-appointed loggia rooms which are high-ceilinged and cool. We received superb friendly service at all times with plenty of areas to relax and a refreshing pool. The breakfast was served with elegance and style.

A piece of quiet in a perfect location, like a little oasis in the busy city. The customer focus was outstanding, from our waiter Mario at breakfast to the hotel staff who helped us tremendously to find the right restaurant for a romantic Christmas dinner. We stayed for only two nights during our roundtrip through Yucatan and would have certainly extended the stay if we‘d had more time. Our room was impeccable, perfectly clean, charming with a super comfortable bed.

We stayed Casa Lecanda at end of October and beginning of November. This is a beautiful, private and very lush Boutique hotel. The rooms are tastefully styled, the tiling that is in the bathroom is beautiful and the beds are very comfortable. Every night with turn down service we also got a delicious chocolate. The staff is magical. Each day and night they were so eager to help us. We woke up at 5 am to tour Bacalar and our tour got canceled. We went back and told the staff what happened and they gave us a splendid hot breakfast on the house (the omelet which I highly recommend- the sauce was so good we licked the bowl (our board was only for fruit, yogurt and bread which by the way was more than enough and delicious as well. I would definitely stay here again and hope to in the future as there are more Cenotes and more of Merida to discover

We took a cooking class with Marcos here and he was AMAZING. We also had a great tamarind margarita - and I normally dont like tamarind. The food he cooked was delicious and they included a personalized apron for me and my husband. Definitely one of the best things we did on the trip! The hotel looked beautiful, but we only saw the pool area. It's in an area of town with a lot of recommended restaurants and close to the main avenue.

This is family owned B&B style hotel. The hotel has 6 rooms. My family and I unfortunately got the worst room in this hotel. All other 5 rooms face the small pretty garden. Our room is the only one that's located in the center of the building. Because of this, our room has very poor natural lightening and ventilation. If we don't keep the air conditioning on, we feel suffocated inside the room because we don't get fresh air from the window. The worst part about this room, is that the owners place a refrigerator right in front of the door, as you can see from the picture. As of the location, the hotel is about 30 minutes away walking from the downtown area of Merida. There is nothing nearby the hotel, no restaurant, no grocery. Thus, if you choose to stay in this hotel, you will just have to take taxi or walk half hour everyday to eat out. The hotel staffs are friendly enough but only few young male staffs speak ok English. Overall, the hotel is ok but I would definitely not recommend it.

It's really lovely little hotel with all tue services

Not so close to the downtown. In front of the police station. Looks good in the lobby.

Fine place to stay, a bit outdated though. Good for one night

God bedroom Awesome hotel

Very kind, nice and cool service!

Great place to stay.!

It's not the best place to stay, yet its clean and the bed are good.

Good

(Translated by Google) Excellent ! It is the second time we have stayed there. Kindness, cleanliness, comfort, tranquility. I recommend it 100%. (Original) Excelente ! Es la segunda ocasión que nos quedamos ahí. Amabilidad, limpieza, comodidad, tranquilidad. Lo recomiendo al 100%.

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful place, all the rooms very well maintained. I can only say that a compressor occasionally kicks on at night, and sometimes the noise interferes with sleep. (Original) Muy hermoso lugar, todos los ambientes muy bien cuidados. Sólo podría decir que de repente hay compresor que prende en las noches y a veces el ruido molesta para poder dormir.

(Translated by Google) Excellent place to stay if you want to stay on that side of town. The hostess is a lovely person! (Original) Excelente lugar para hospedarse si deseas quedarte en ese lado de la ciudad. La anfitriona es una belleza de persona!

(Translated by Google) The beds are comfortable, it's clean (coming from a very picky person with cleanliness). The kitchen needs a good shake of cobwebs and spiders. The bathroom had problems going down and there was a leak in the room (Original) Las camas son cómodas, es limpio (viniendo de una persona muy picky con la limpieza). La cocina necesita una buena sacudida de telarañas y arañas. El baño ttenia problemas en bajar y había una gotera en el cuarto

This hotel was a lovely experience. It was a last-minute booking after a mix-up at our initial hotel, and we didn't know what to expect. We were really happy that we ended up here! The hotel is beautiful from top to bottom, and our room was particularly charming - nicely decorated and quite spacious with a private patio and plunge pool. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We also loved the location, which is just around the corner from the Calle 47 "restaurant row." Parking is in a secure lot. I would highly recommend staying here.

A beautiful new hotel with a great location, great staff and amazing cocktails! 🍸

Great service, incredibly beautiful room, quaint bar, quiet and romantic

(Translated by Google) Thank you so much!!! We had an experience that we enjoyed with all five of our senses: the view of the architecture, the vegetation, the decorative details; the scent of the candles in the lobby; the delicious dishes in the restaurant; the cool water of the pool; and knowing the song of the suite we stayed in. Highly recommended. (Original) Muchas gracias!!! Vivimos una experiencia que disfrutamos con nuestros 5 sentidos, la vista de la arquitectura, la vegetación, los detalles de decoración; el aroma de las velas en el lobby; los deliciosos platillos del restaurante; el agua fresca de la alberca y el conocer la canción de la suite en la que nos hospedamos. Totalmente recomendable.

(Translated by Google) I loved the hotel. The entire staff is very friendly, the service exceeded expectations, and the hotel is beautiful as well. I have no complaints about the location; it's very close to the main attractions, and they have parking. It's worth mentioning that it's a bit far from the hotel, but you can get there in less than 5 minutes since it's just a few blocks away. I highly recommend it. (Original) Me encantó el hotel, todo el personal es muy amable, el servicio superó las expectativas y lo bonito del hotel también, en la ubicación ninguna queja está muy cerca de los lugares principales, y cuentan con estacionamiento, cabe mencionar que es un poco alejado del hotel pero llegas en menos de 5 minutos ya que está a unas cuadras. Lo recomiendo ampliamente(:

(Translated by Google) I loved the hotel, surrounded by gardens and flowers from the region, and a central courtyard where we spent the afternoon. The room was very comfortable and had an original design. The location was close to everything new in downtown Mérida. I would come back with my husband! (Original) Me encantó el hotel, rodeado de jardines y flores de la región y un patio central donde estuvimos pasando la tarde .. la habitación muy cómoda y original su diseño. La ubicación cerca de todo lo nuevo del centro de Mérida. Volvería a llegar con mi marido !!

(Translated by Google) It's located in the coolest part of downtown Mérida, very close to the gastronomic tourist corridor, Parque de la Plancha, and Paseo de Montejo. The architecture is exquisite, and the rooms boast a level of detail rarely seen. The service is excellent—in short, an unforgettable experience we hope to repeat soon! (Original) Está en la zona más padre del centro de Mérida, muy cerca del corredor gastronómico turístico, del Parque de la Plancha y de Paseo de Montejo. La arquitectura es exquisita, los cuartos tienen un nivel de detalle pocas veces visto. El servicio es excelente, en fin, una experiencia inolvidable y que esperamos repetir pronto!

Unique food experiences at Kuuk. We loved it. Our favorite dish of all was the smoky shrimp over rice. the pumpkin appetizer is a must try. i wish we would have saved more room for a second dessert. we shared a light one with tofu & celery. imaginative and delicious. Good wine. Great cocktails. Excellent service. We loved it.

We dined at Kuuk 9/20/25. This is a big house that was converted into a restaurant. What used to be bedrooms have now been converted in dining areas and the room we were seated in accommodated 3 tables for dining. Pedro, our waiter, always seemed in a rush! We ordered pulpo and esquite as our starter. The pulpo was delicious and the esquite, I did not care for, the corn was not to my liking. Then 4 guests arrived and ordered the chef prefix which is a lot of small portions of food and drinks throughout the dining experience which if I remember correctly is $2100.00 per person. So, what happened once that table started ordering, all the attention and service was totally devoted to that table. That left us, a table of 2 and another table of 2 guests also dining in that one room. Service was “Horrible”! … “NO” Service for the other 2 tables of 2 guests! When we were done eating, I asked for a dessert menu. I started asking the waiter Pedro questions and then suddenly, tells me, look over the menu and think of what you might like and then Pedro took off to the table of 4 guest that ordered prefix. It was a very good while before Pedro came back and asked, ok, so what would you like for dessert. At that point I told him, “I don’t care to order dessert, I am ready for the check”. Then as the hostess came to our table with the terminal to tally us out, Pedro appears at our table stating it was our anniversary and here is a dessert on us. The timing was 100% off as Pedro was too busy catering to the table that ordered the Prefix. We were ready to leave much less have dessert at this point!!! The Hostess was very lovely, personable young girl who later showed us what used to be a private house. The bottom line to Kuuk is “I would NOT recommend this restaurant to any of my friends or anyone one in general!”

We had an amazing Bordeaux with our food thanks to the sommelier for making a great suggestion. The staff was very good even though there was a horribly rude Dutch family playing board games next to us and treating the staff poorly the staff was professional and always smiled. It was a great experience. Europeans, please don’t act rude to Mexicans!

Kuuk is the finest dining experience in Mérida. Exceptional quality, variety and execution. Great ambience and top service as well. Great wine list with a large selection of Mexican wines and solid representations from everywhere else in the world. Love coming here anytime I am in Merida.

Went to celebrate a birthday on Sunday for lunch 3pm. The menu is spectacular! We had robalo and shrimps. Delicious!! But, the Waiter was really not pleasant all the time and the restaurant was totally empty, we were the only table. The waiter seemed upset and in a rush. Food is good! Site is beautiful.

Of course we did the tasting menu and it did not disappoint. Not much that can be said that probably hasnt been said before. The service is great but it felt a bit impersonal compared to other restaurants of this stature. The food is bold and it's nice that they introduce you, or at least not let you forget that you're eating ingredients not found elsewhere. The physical place is gorgeous.

The service was outstanding. Traditional food with a modern touch, expensive for what was served. Everything needed a bit more attention, the lime soup was excellent once we requested and added some salt. The rooms were beautiful but the noise from the bar reverberates though-out making conversation difficult.

The food and its presentation was creative here and the flavours were very good. All 4 of us had different main course dishes. Short ribs were excellent, fish of the day was also excellent. The lamb burger was ordered well done, but it was still quite pink inside.... But the flavours were very good. My pasta dish with truffle oil was delicious, and just the right amount. The appetizers were okay, but we all felt the desserts were just excellent! My partner said it was the best dessert he'd ever had in Mérida. There was a very limited selection of red wines the evening we were there, and we're thinking there was a problem with the air conditioning because it was terribly hot and they had a fan running. It was a great dining experience overall.

My boyfriend and I had an incredible time at Nectar. David was our waiter and he was more than fantastic. We both had the 7 course dinner. I had the lamb, and he had the quail. Both were delicious. Our favorite was the mamey sorbet desert. Perfect portions, atmosphere, and staff. Thank you Nectar for a beautiful date night!

Perfect experience from the minute we walked in! The only thing better than the food, was the service. Jorge was attentive and knowledgeable. He made the evening a great first experience for us. Had the 5 course tasting and was immediately impressed by all the flavors and textures.

Nectar was a nice treat while visiting Merida. My group I enjoyed a very nice meal. Enjoyed the relaxed, friendly welcoming atmosphere the music was good too and not too loud. However, the location is a bit strange insofar as my view from the table was the parking lot and through out the meal I was somewhat blinded by the lights of cars that were parking right in front of the building. We chose the 7 course tasting meun which was good but perhaps needed more balance of the course offerings. The group favorite items were the pork belly taco and the grilled red snapper. The entre finale pork chop was over cooked a bit tough and dry and disappointing. The coconut dessert was nice and the yogurt dessert was interesting but seemed unnecessary and didn't pair well with the tasting menu. It would have been nice to have something light a fruity like a sorbet. The service was good but lower than expected as there were mistakes throughout. It seemed some of the service staff may have been in training, but not sure. In fact the last dish was served to everyone at the table but one person. The service staff came back and forth but it took awhile before they noticed the person did not have their dish. They brought as soon as they noticed but a restaurant rated highly as their you'd expect more stellar service. But all in all not a bad dining experience. But didn't quite meet my expectations. But by all means still worth trying...

Had the 7 course set menu but swapped out the pork chop for the picanha special, which was amazing. The final dessert was some weird garlic experimental thing that was disgusting but overall the course was really good.

Jesus, our server was outstanding. He was the highlight of the evening. Great job! However… The owner, Roberto Solis, came into the restaurant, shortly after my partner and I sat down - we were the only seated patrons at the time, right next to the kitchen. He spent time chatting with the kitchen staff, looked our way a number of times, but never so much as even smiled in our general direction. Yet, with each subsequent table (of locals) that came in, he greeted them, spent time talking to them, and even sat at one table for the vast majority of their meal. Us? We were never even acknowledged. I’m typically not paranoid nor a complainer but, we were clearly the only Americans in the restaurant and it felt like a deliberate snub. The vast majority of the food was delightful, but the pork chop was nearly inedible. It looked lovely and had a great flavor but it was 90% fat. There was so much left on the plate that the server asked my partner if he wanted a to-go box. Hard pass. Jesus, our server, was, as mentioned, wonderful - and the restaurant is beautiful. Being able to watch the kitchen while at work was akin to sitting at a chef’s table & very much enjoyable but… For the cost of the food, I expect it all to be exemplary - Not inedible. To note: I grew up in the restaurant business and I would’ve fired an employee if he behaved like the owner did - it was just a slap in the face. Won’t be back & won’t be recommending to others. Do better.

Their menu has some delightful gems! The star of our meal was a caramelized onion sheet! Wow. So fun to eat. Also we ordered a "venado almendrado" venison; AMAZING, unforgettable. The rest of the meal was good and the service of our waiter was impeccable.

The gnocchi and sauce were good, but to me drowned in cheese. They charged an extra $35 or $40 pesos for the bread, pushing the lunch cost over $300 pesos. The server seemed distracted most of the time, maybe because it was a slow time of day. Okay value for the money but not a 5-star experience.

You’ve got to try this place. We went there once to get some macaroons but we ended up eating there and then had to comeback the next day to order half the menu (That’s how good this was). This is one of those places that Anthony Bourdain would probably make a whole show of. Outstanding food, Compliments to the chef.

Enjoyed our visit to this very nice spot in the plaza. Tare, our waiter was very patient and informative with us. The food was very well presented and delicious. I have never tasted crickets, Tare was kind and set them aside from my main dish, so I could try them or not.

The meal was beautifully presented and everything was quite delicious. The only thing I would say about the snapper fish dish I had was it was ever so slightly overcooked. But here in the Yucatan they tend to overcook shrimp and fish a little bit rather than undercook. I would rather that than undercooked. One of the colourful carrots on the plate was not edible at all because it was so hard I couldn't even cut it with a knife. But that really is the worst I can say about this meal. My partner's salad was absolutely delicious he said. It was a great place with great service and a beautiful spot at Santa Lucia park. The dessert was absolutely delicious and it included very lovely little edible flowers on top as you can see in the picture. I would definitely recommend dining here and we would go back again ourselves.

My new favorite restaurant in the city from now on! High quality products were prepared perfectly. Everything was delicious!! The waiters are doing their utmost best. You'll see me back because this restaurant makes me feel at home (similar cuisine to Belgium, where I'm from)

I am only 4 days into my 1 month stay here in Merida and I have already dined here 4 times (nice relaxing lunches and dinners). This is an excellent restaurant with a perfect selection of menu choices including foie gras. Wines by the glass options are available for food pairing and their cocktails are well crafted. And the best after dinner Carajillos I have had in the Yucatan (Tulum, Valladolid, and Merida) over the past 2 months. The staff have always been friendly, professional, and knowledgeable about the menu. And the Parque de Santa Lucía location is picturesque. Excellent in every way and highly recommended.

I've been coming here for a year. I enjoy their cocktails and brunch menu. Service is always professional and friendly. They have singers entertaining you during dinner as well. The guy who sings Wednesday to Friday is fabulous! Good food plus good music. Perfect combination!

Was an unexpected experience. Little bit further from the city mayhem but worth walking. Vegan food was great, music nice and service perfect. Happy we tried this place. On a Monday evening it was very quiet and we enjoyed that.

Excellent food and service. Easy to walk past the door if you’re not looking for it. The guacamole had bacon rinds in it. The hot dog was spot on. Great margaritas.

Food is ok. I came looking forward since reviews were excellent. However, I did not find the food so delicious, it is okay. I have eaten better tacos. Also, the waitress was very pushy asking us what else we wanted it while i just want to eat quietly. Apparently, you need to feel obligated to give at least 10% tip. However, I did not find that the service deserved it 😤 but she came to chase us to the door. Definitely a bad experience and I would not recommend coming back at all!!

Wow! We really, really liked this place. We enjoyed this restaurant. Their food was very fresh and flavorful. Our tacos were very delicious. I recommend their octopus tacos and fried ice cream. The place is somewhat hidden.but the service and food will be something we will remember.

Such a cool space, and the food was delicious! I lucked out making this my first stop in Mérida, just searched for any place to grab a bite within walking distance of the bus station.

Industrial looking restaurant, good vibe. I went on a Sunday night so it was mostly empty but looks like they are used to be crowded. Had the chicken kimchi burger and it was amazing. They also have a great variety of beers and the prices are really fair compared to some other places closer to the center.

It was quite good . I had empanadas and a mezcal cocktail and both were delicious. The environment had an upbeat vibe with interesting music and a sort of warehouse decor. I would recommend it to those who like the unusual.

I’m writing this as a local.This is my go to when I want old world elegance and tranquility. Mexican food, great waiters, and very fair prices. Willie, Octavio, Fabio all are wonderful, the food excellent, chilaquiles, ensalada, galletas but the other day I had a coffee and I don’t usually as I drink decaf but I had a high test coffee and OMG it was worth it. Probably the best coffee I’ve had in a very long time. Go here. It’s a small boutique hotel with a great restaurant on the main level and TBH I see mainly locals in the restaurant and that’s always a good sign.

Beautiful place to stay in Merida. The rooms are nice, clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and gentle. The only concern about the hotel is located next to a bar, they play music out loud at night and the rooms are not noise proof. I couldn’t sleep two nights during the weekend.

Best hotel we’ve stayed at in the Yucatán so far. The lobby is so charming and the staff were all helpful and polite. The handmade market is also great for gifts. 100% will be returning.

Bigotry prejudice and discrimination by a single individual makes this an unfriendly place to stay. After three nights the best moment was leaving. Physically a charming boutique hotel, but I suggest readers find a friendlier place to stay.

Strange hotel in a beautiful 19 th century large palm filled house organised around central courtyard. The house parrots make disturbing screaming noise. You are given keys to the garage and told to figure it out yourself ( where ? how ? ). There was a Mexican rock concert in the square in front of the hotel - so no sleep possible before 1 am…….

Lovely hotel, beautiful courtyard, comfortable rooms with good AC. Slightly obsessive about breakfast.

Such a beautiful hotel and restaurant. The dining atmosphere is great. The food is delicous and the menu extensive.

I came with a single mission to Parque Santiago. I needed my "fix" of Relleno Negro, a Yucatecan specialty. I was not disappointed. The flavor was spot on, the meatball was perfect and the broth was as black as the moonless night. Charred peppers never tasted so good.

Did I come here because of all the hype this place gets? Yes, but let me tell you it lives up to the hype. I ordered a Torta con lechón, it was fantastic! They bake their own bread, wood-fired just like the lechón so it's fresh and tasty and it's perfect with the pork. I also got a Cochinita Pibil Panucho and a Salbute de relleno negro. Both were amazing as well, however relleno negro was my favorite, it's such an unexpected taste, it's just great. Come to La Lupita, you won't be disappointed, it's worth the trip and the wait.

Get the pork roll - it’s heavenly and only $40 pesos. The chia de limon is also delicious!

They made vegan tacos upon request but since it’s a very traditional spot, all the rest of the dishes were meat + cheese heavy. Not many options for a vegan. Other than that, super authentic though.

Most unique and original experience for local fast food. The best option is to arrive early as it opens at 8 am but demand is so high you may not find all of their variety of dishes by 10 am. You may need to wait no longer than 15 minutes in the line as it is big but it's demand is over their available tables. Totally worth it!

It’s incredibly popular and if you don’t come first thing in the morning they may have sold out on some of the more popular items on the menu! Some of juiciest and most succulent meat I have had was here at Taqueria La Lupita - delicious food with generous servings of meat. For how busy it was, being realistic, I was happy with the level and friendliness of the service and the speed at which I was looked after.

wonderful place, there are a lot of places in this city where you can lechon, cochinita. but la lupita was even featured in a netflix tacos special, the lechon taco is soft and so rich in flavor you’ll need some 6 at least to get the hang of it. i love the fact that it’s inside an actual mercado and walking by yo have more options! like tetiz

Quiet little place with only 10 or so tables. The ambiance is calm and you can take your time e enjoying the food without the next course being pushed on you. The food, Wow! I had the gnocchi and they truly were like clouds and the primavera say se was amazing. She had the ravioli and it was delightful with aroma of the spinach and topped with little crispy Italian sausage bits. The prices are very very reasonable. About 250 is pesos or $12 per pasta entree. The menu is simple and amazing. Cant wait to come back.

Nice little place. You will be happy. Excellent flavor combos. No problem recommending for when you’re tired of tacos and want some Italian food.

One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to in my trip! The pastas are amazing! We also had the ricotta salad which was great! The staff are wonderful and the restaurant is inside a beautiful inner courtyard! Highly recommended!

After one week trying mexican and Mayan food we wanted to eat something familiar. So we tried this place and it was worth it! It was really good food and everyone was really nice. We tried the burrata and some homemade pasta. I recommend this place if you want to eat some good Italian food. The white wine was also nice.

For the love of god. If you sell pasta, please know what al dente is. There is nothing simpler than putting a timer and taking out the pasta at the right moment and nothing worse than carelessly leaving the pasta too long so that it resembles a soup more than a pasta. The sauce was also watery and with bland taste. To be fair we had previously had a good pasta here, but this one was no more than a 4.3. Last time ordering from here RESPONSE: point taken on the delivery, but if you know it will cook more, then please adjust the cook time accordingly!

Came here for some bites with my buddies. The food was wonderful their deserts were great. But due to the seasons, me and my friends all left with many mosquito stings, store manager mention they are doing something about it. Hopefully, they sort it out as the food were really good. AMEX accepted 🤣

A nice italian restaurant near the City center. It has a beautiful backyard, where you can take a seat and escape from the noise of the city. They have lot of pasta options from you can choose from. We really enjoyed our meal and time there. Worth the visit!

For me, the best flat white and the best cortado in town! Just the right flavor and an intense but not bitter or sour taste, milk alternatives are also available (oat milk). Totally recommend it! The nice add-on is the selection of board games that can be played for free while enjoying a coffee and a pastry.

One of the best cafe here. Nice location, lots of books (there are not a lot of cafes that are book themed in Merida as far as I know), reasonable price, and good jugo del dia. Def will come back

Found this cafe on Google Maps when we had to kill time before checking into a room and it couldn't have been better - delicious coffee, air conditioning, and wifi. We had a flat white and cappuccino frio and both were very good!

Love this place! Excellent coffee and very friendly staff and owners. The avocado toast is perfect. The owners let me borrow their one copy of The Catcher in the Rye for my trip to Tulum. Now we all know people never return borrowed books! Because of their kindness, I most certainly will return it at the end of the month and visit wherever I’m in Mérida!

What a gem 💎 of a place. Such nice people and staff and so inviting. The food quality is tops. The atmosphere is so relaxing and inviting. We could easily spend an afternoon just enjoying great food and books to read from their accumulated library. Our complete to this establishment as it all comes together for a wonderful and appetizing experience.😋

Fabulous oasis in centro district. They have books for sale as well as plenty of room for a meeting, coffee date, or to study/work. Their coffee is delicious and their food is fresh and yummy. Good spot for a sandwich + salad.

I have visited here on several occasions and have always enjoyed each visit. A nice, quiet and relaxed atmosphere to enjoy great breakfast items and a wide selection of hot and cold coffees, teas, etc. The amazing yogurt parfait, fresh fruit and yogurt, is my favorite along with their delicious variety of cookies. Waffles are highly enjoyable as well. Highly recommended...

A pleasant spot with good food, desserts, and drinks. It’s slightly pricier than others nearby, but the experience and service are worth it. Great for brunch, a date, or a quiet coffee. Shops and galleries with creative designs are also there.

Amazing place! We enjoyed it to the fullest! Had an amazing brunch, bought some art and perfumes. Top notch products and designs.

Lovely place I love to have breakfast when I’m in Merida. I always thought their avocado toast is the best in town but I have to say that recently, I felt it went a bit downhill, probably for the low quality bread they use. The waitress are really nice. The place remains a good place to spend some time and to work from a computer. Expensive for what it delivers. The quality is average!

Well, Mérida is definitely hot and humid — but at Casa Tho, it was a nightmare. We went this morning for breakfast, and while the place itself is beautiful, the experience was very disappointing. We asked them to turn on the fans, but they said there was no electricity — quite odd for such a nice establishment. Service was terrible and breakfast was just okay. It took over an hour for our food to come out of the kitchen, and another 20 minutes just to get the check. Overall, I do not recommend this place. Beautiful setting, but the service and organization were unacceptable.

We've had two lunches here, and we've loved both. The first day we had the avocado an salmon toasts. The next day, I had the tuna tartare and my wife had the spicy ca rrot soup. Everything was excellent. It has a lovely quiet atmosphere, similar to old Singapore (the weather is so similar). The margarita was probably one of the best I've ever had.

You must stop by this place for a divine meal and artisanal shopping. We had some cute cocktails and bites including the arancini and the sandwich made with bacon , grilled pineapple, Gruyère. The stores include an art gallery a carla Fernandez store with amazing clothes and a number of other boutiques including a jewelry spot and some home furnishings

Gorgeous older building with precious courtyard turned into a collection of boutique shops and a restaurant. The shops feature high end designer clothes, products and art. Definitely an interesting stop as you’re exploring Paseo de Montejo.

This is my second time staying at this hotel and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff are very customer focused, and provided amazing service. The new pool is really well designed and I very much appreciated there was an adults only pool that would provide a more peaceful environment. Highlight at the end was the staff was quick to check our room to see if we forgot anything when checking out, and I did manage to leave my charger. Those little things make a huge difference to your vacation.

Had the best time staying here. Hotel staff was wonderful and we really enjoyed the place. We only had 2 small issues 1. the advertise 3 pools, in reality only the big new pool can be used to swim as the other two are a bit unkept and lots of debris, dead bugs etc floating around but quite nice if you want to be by the pool but not in the pool. 2. the second thing is the fact that we didn’t know construction was going on. They’re building lots of apartments in the property (90+) right by the main pool, which kinda was a bummer, really takes away from the boutique hotel experience we wanted, nevertheless the real issue is the noise! Obviously construction work is loud so when only one pool is nice and clean to swim in, and the environment is loud, well, it wasn’t ideal. The room was lovely, the staff amazing and caring. Location for us was perfect as we wanted something between beach and city so it was ideal, but you’ll either need a car or Uber a lot. Definitely loved our stay. Sad to know it won’t be a boutique hotel anymore tho.

I really enjoyed my stay at Hacienda Xcanatun. It is lovely and lush with greenery. The room was comfortable and large with an outdoor patio. Breakfast and dinner were all very tasty and room service was the same quality. The gym on site is great with a sizable amount of equipment and in a beautiful setting. The pool is also lovely although it is currently surrounded by local outside of the hotel unfortunately. There are a ton of rooms and there is not much like it in the area if you need a larger number of spots together for a group like we did. The downside is the area surrounding it does not have anything and it is a good 20 min ride into Merida to get to other restaurants etc. If you are looking for a place for a group or a spot for some R&R, it's great.

First time staying here. Two adults and a 15mo toddler. We had a wonderful stay! The property is ~25 mins away from the Airport, Downtown Mérida, and Progresso beach - so plan to Uber, drive, or have transportation. We drove and it was easy and free parking. If you’re walking impaired make sure and state so when reserving - there are a lot of steps in certain areas. Service - 10/10 Could not be better. Everyone amazing to our family from the moment we arrived till we drove away. It was an absolute pleasure & they did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. Even left surprise birthday cake for me ❤️ Hotel - 9.7/10 Amazing property. Felt like being in a jungle. We had a suite and it was quite large. Some construction at back of property but it was minimal. Had daily activities. Pool was great. Loved it! Restaurant- 6/10 😔 hurts me to say but we did not have best food experience at the restaurant. Staff was amazing and attentive, no issues at all with them. But food quality and taste was just not what I come to expect from Mexico. Wasn’t bad, just wasn’t necessarily great. We ate there three times and each had an element that was a bit below average (pork belly too much fat, octopus tostada not very good). The good is that the vegetables, bread, tortillas, butter and jams were some of the best we’ve ever had!! Plus they had a vegetarian menu for my wife which was very helpful Overall we’d absolutely return here and had an excellent stay. I think if they could just get the restaurant food a bit better, it’d make this place even better! Thank you to the staff for hosting us and taking such good care of us 🙏🏾🙏🏾

This was an amazing time! This was a friend getaway and birthday. The massage was so relaxing and the pool was to die for! Everyone was so accommodating and welcoming. Service was sensational! We can’t wait to tell everyone that we know to come here!

This resort should be removed from the luxury list. This is not a luxury resort. This is not even a resort. It is a mediocre hotel. The food was it fresh. The fruit was at least a day or two old when we got it. Customer service was horrific. We waited 60 minutes for eggs and French toast. We finally got up and left, and they still made us pay for it. We had one stand for a two person room when we asked the front desk about why we couldn’t get another stand on the other side. They said that that was how the room came . So we used our suitcase as our other nightstand see in photos . The light in the closet kept falling off. I actually asked him to fix it several times, that never happened. I was trying to fix it myself because we could not close the sliding closet door with the broken lights that kept falling . The coffee area the tray kept falling off. It was broken. There is NO smart TV, false advertisement! This was the worst experience I have ever had at a hotel. The outside property itself was nice. The chef for the restaurant should be fired, and the staff should be trained not to say yes when they don’t understand.

Truly beautiful Hacienda set amidst gorgeous and peaceful gardens. The rooms are very spacious and tasteful, the restaurant is fantastic and there is a palpable sense of historic grandeur and respect for the past. Highly recommended!

Close to paseo de Montejo. Staff was super helpful. A small fridge and a microwave in the room wouldnt hurt. We had one/two small issues with safe ... don't use it.

I wasnˋt accommodated in the hotel just visited the cafeteria; considering these days the temperature in Merida has been above 40°C, I expected the place to be cool but not, the a.c. was not working properly. Second complaint: I ordered an american coffee TO STAY and the waitress brought it in a disposable cup! despite the hotel having its own restaurant.

The staff was amazing at the Wyndham Merida. Everyone from the front desk, restaurant service, housekeeping, bellmen, concierge, and management greeted me and my family with a smile and buenos dias every time they saw us out and about. The room was a little small, but the service way over compensated for the small time we were in our rooms. Thank-You for a terrific stay!

Very quite, great getaway for 2 people. Shopping within walking distance.

I feel like the rooms could've been slightly cleaner (there was a used water bottle and a lot of stray hairs in my room) but overall decent stay for the money. Staff was super polite and nice the Starbucks was appreciated for the days I just needed to grab something quick before being out all day

Place is pretty average and is in desperate need of being upgraded/refurbished. Pool is very small and not upkept. Front office staff was nice but not much help; they told us that the nearest place to get something to eat was in downtown (we later found a number of places in the area with delicious one named "Platos Rotos" [Broken Dishes] about 3 blocks away). Not sure if I'd return to this place when there's much nicer places in the downtown area.

First time at this hotel. I usually stay at fiesta americana but it was all booked for to a convention and it was also due to the carnival. Main entrance looks ok. Lobby is small and unimpressive. Staff was ok. Rooms were clean. Bed was comfortable. No tissue box though. I was given a room in the 4th floor. Next day. Elevator broke. Also that night, there was no water at all. We had to go to another hotel to shower. We had no water for almost 24 hours! Elevator was not fixed even when I left after 6 days. Every time, I pass by the lobby counter, I see the staff sitting. The problem with that is that the counter seems to be too high. So if they sit, it looks like there is nobody at the counter. In my opinion, this does not look good when someone is entering the hotel. Parking lot is small too. Most of the time, we had to park in the street.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and it was an absolute disappointment. The cleanliness was appalling. Upon entering the bathroom, I found insects crawling around the toilet and spider webs in the corners. The room had a strange, musty smell. To make matters worse, there were noticeable holes and cracks in the walls.The noise from outside kept me up all night, and the overall lack of care for basic hygiene and maintenance was shocking. Definitely not what I expected from a 5star hotel. I would not recommend staying here.

Everything is great about this hotel and the history is amazing. Don't expect a bunch of modern amenities as the building has been kept as original as possible. We've had a great time so far and the personnel are outstanding.

This is such a beautiful hotel. It has it all, the location, the excellent staff always willing to help, the cleanliness of the rooms was outstanding. The front desk staff, Rosario, and the other people made our stay even more pleasant. Imar, Cristi, Luis in the restaurant were always helpful and kind. Don Daniel and housekeeping made sure we had a great stay in this beautiful hotel. Thank you! Randy & Gaby Fletcher Room 206

We were greeted with a big smile at check in with a sincere happiness professionalism by Hansel and Ingrid they show us to the room beautiful room very cleaned and trust me when I say clean I check everything. Breakfast man and cleaning staff so friendly. Restaurant night life bars shopping just steps away from the hotel perfect location in Merida super safe . Very quiet hotel even if it’s on the busy street.

What a beautiful place! The hotel is also very well located, comfortable and close to Paseo Montejo and a lot of coffee places, restaurants and bars. The personnel is beyond kind, they are always pampering you, and making you feel home. Best place to stay in Mérida for sure.

Could not rate this hotel higher. Such wonderful staff and location. We were very well looked after and the presidential suite was exactly everything we wanted for our honeymoon. Thank you so much to Daniel and team.

The staff is very helpful and friendly. The location is great! The hotel is clean and close to restaurants, museums, the Plaza Grande and stores.

La Ermita is one of the most quaint locations in Mérida. It's located in a historic corner where most of the locals live. We visited the churches and found that manifestation happens quickly in the area. You'll be guided by spirits and forces of nature and receive guidance along your journey if you allow your self to explore. Beware, there's pockets of energy traps that consume your vitality and you'll sense it right away, so pack you mosquito repellent. The beds are cozy and most locals stay here at a fare rate, breakfast is plentiful! Which was the best part of a shared room, the beds were not something to consider at the rate, nor the conditions of the guests but it is a space for renewal landing and grace if you allow your self to explore a humble version of Merida religious faithful community so be reverent.

Good location... not too far from city center and very close to the ADO station which I valued a lot. The hotel is very clean, the pool welcome under a scorching heat. The breakfast buffet albeit similar to every hostal in quality was free-refill. A great plus for big eaters like myself. The staff kept my bag for a full day in the reception as well which is cool. AC comes at an extra cost which should be mandatory as its really too hot. Decently sized lockers. Curtains on the beds for privacy would be welcome Only minus: you have to get there before 23:00 (to be considered if you come by late night bus from Valladolid- although there is a 1h time difference.)

From Bad to WORSE. The shower was not in service. Had to walk out to another outside shower. Woke up @ 7am to shower and found out it was closed until 8am. Breakfast is bad. Toast and cornflakes. Beds are awful. You can feel every spring in them... thank goodness for AC working properly... you would not want to go in the pool...

We really enjoyed our time here. We had the private room and although it's a hostel, it was quiet at night. So we slept well. The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast was free and although basic, we found it very nice. You get fruits, toast, yoghurt, juice, coffee and tea. Fine! It's a little walk to the city center but that wasn't a problem for us🚶 The staff speaks English and was very helpful and friendly. ✅ We recommend this hostel for sure!

One of the best hotels i ever stayed in. Its a beautiful oasis with a clean pool in the centro of merida. Good Service, friendly Staff, breakfast and you can even Play Pool. Very relaxed atmosphere and cute animals around <3

Sadly we didn't have a great experience here. We booked a 6 bed AC dorm for 3 nights but never actually slept in the room. The first night there was a very bad smell and a man snoring loudly at 6pm onwards. The 2nd night a smell of cigarettes and the same man. The next morning all 5 people asked to move or for the man to be moved. Weirdly they moved everyone but him. The room also never went dark because of the outside lights. The bathroom wasn't clean. This hostel is far from town, we often used Uber. The staff did try to resolve our problems but with varying success. The breakfast was very nice and free! We wouldn't stay again.

Nice Hostel in the suburbs of Merida. Friendly and helpful staff, good standard breakfast and a nice refreshing pool. Bikes can also be leased for a day. Going to the city center is a nice 20 min walk and definitely worth it. There are also some parking spots in the back of the hostel garden.

Perfect location. Room was ok, but sometimes the tap water was coming out green and really bad smelling. One morning there was no water from the tap. The stuff was friendly, the only thing is that they have an agreement with a local parking that is not 24h and even if initially they told us we could use another parking with a voucher provided by them too, then they changed their mind and we had to pay the parking by our own.

Spotlessly clean, I can honestly say I have never been to such a clean hostel, it is cleaner than many hotels I have been to. The staff are really nice, polite and helpful. One thing that may be a slight concern to some people is the fact that it seems anyone could walk in off the street as the front door is always open and the hostel do not ask you to wear wrist bands or anything, that being said the reception is constantly manned and the hostel provides large lockers for personal belongings and I felt safe at all times here. Excellent toilets/showers, hot water, good kitchen and breakfast provided for free (melon, sandwiches, cereal, eggs, coffee, juice). I would be more than happy to stay here again.

The best thing next to the absolute central location, was the spacious bathroom with big shower cabins. The rest did not appear as expected. Small room with very shaky bulk beds and lots of noice starting in the kitchen already by 5am. The breakfast was freshly made which was good but most of the dishes were not clean at all. This is not really a place for travelers, lots of people stay there because they're working in Merida etc.

Good central location, very clean and quite cheap. The bathrooms are a good size although water pressure is pretty poor. The free breakfast great and includes hot food items, not just the usual fruit and yogurt. Each room has it's own wifi, the wifi network for our room was terrible and unfortunately the reception wifi barely reached the room. The rooms were also quite small and don't have windows or anything so there is no ventilation or fresh air which is what I disliked most. The AC is only turned on at 8pm at night so the rooms ate very uncomfortable during the day

Great hostel. unbelievable how cheap this place is considering the location and the free breakfast. They even gave us a free glass of cold fresh watermelon juice when we arrived which was amazing. Friendly staff who also speak English which is great for gringos like me. Highly recommend this place.

Very good hostel! The location is the best, the rooms are nice and clean, with lockers, there is a large common area with a table, a good kitchen and the bathrooms were also very clean. The staff was helpful and nice. Also, the breakfast is amazing!

Good place to stay in Merida. Located just next to the cathedral. It gives you the opportunity to see downtown without worrying about getting back to your hostel. The rooms are ok. Aircon during the night and two ceiling fans. The beds are comfortable enough, and have a plug next to them. All the rooms surround the common area ( breakfast area), and that could be noisy in the morning, especially the bunk beds next to the windows. There is a kitchenette, and free drinking water. The bathrooms are massive, and the showers have free soap. There is pop music always playing during the day, but at a moderate volume. It starts at 8ish and is off at 10ish. You are received with a cold drink by the manager of the hostel. The breakfast is good, buffet style. The internet was not the best.

From the moment you step into Casa Garza Hostel, you are pulled into a welcoming and authentic Yucatán atmosphere. This beautifully restored traditional house offers a truly outstanding experience that goes above and beyond typical hostel. The entire hostel, from the comfortable dorm rooms and private suites to the common areas and bathrooms, is consistently clean. You can truly relax and feel at home in this well-maintained environment. The staff at Casa Garza give exceptional service. They are friendly, helpful, and attentive, always ready to assist with any questions or needs, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable stay for every guest. Casa Garza has easy access to the city's main attractions, including the Main Square, Cathedral, and various restaurants and shops. It's also conveniently located near the bus station, making travel a breeze. The complimentary breakfast, which often includes fresh fruit, yogurt, and a daily warm dish which changes everyday is amazing and I often still think about it! Loved this hostel and recommend it to everyone we talk too going to Merida!

Wow! We loved our stay at Casa Garza. The staff are absolutely lovely- they go out of their way to make you feel welcomed. They start by giving you lots of suggestions and you never feel rushed asking questions or soaking in the information. They are very attentive. On top this, the hostel is beautiful we stayed in a private dorm that was clean and nicely decorated. There is a cute turtle that lives outside and a nice pool area. Another highlight was the breakfast. It changes each day and it is an all you can eat buffet and super fresh. Thank you very much. From Emilio and Maddie

Really amazing hostel -- it's like stepping into a different world from the streets of downtown Merida. The interior is so well decorated and maintained and has basically anything you need -- a pool, hammocks, many seating areas, a kitchen, and a public TV area. Also, they have a turtle! The hosts know some English. They have recommendations for food and other services. My room was super beautiful with stone accented background and good lighting, the whole place was clean and comfortable. I found out that there is a door to a massive private patio overlooking the city! (Shared with the adjacent room, but private from all the other rooms). The lighting is so beautiful. The showers were not hot when I was using them, which is common in the Yucatan peninsula.

This was a breath of fresh air. The front desk person was incredibly helpful, and the staff in general were wonderful! It was an interesting place to stay, with a mix of folks sharing bunkbeds and looking for more privacy. The facilities are cute and nicely decorated. The breakfast was great and filling! They had a solid enough variety to compensate for the lack of an egg dish. I'll take quesadillas and beans any day! Though it was a bit challenging to get up to our room on the second floor, the front desk person, Aaron, helped with our bags. We also loved the balcony, though we didn't use it as much as we would have liked. It's also a 5-10 minute walk to the downtown area, which was perfect for us since we also don't mind walking a bit. Overall, we loved this place and would be open to staying here again. Getting to our room was a bit of a hazardous trek, especially on a rainy day. The ladder that leads to the second floor is a bit wobbly, and you're not entirely sure it can support your weight. The bathrooms in the common space were out of commission and clogged up. Not sure what that was about, but my understanding was that they were working on the plumbing. I also remember the mattress being harder than the average hotel. Not sure what that's about. My wife also mentioned that the room was not as clean as she would have liked. She found long hair on the walls and on the floor. Overall, though, we had a pleasant experience and would 100% stay here again.

Enjoyed staying here! The staff were lovely, really appreciated the free breakfast (and that soy milk was on offer!), excellent location close to the main plaza, and the dorm rooms were quiet and dark to sleep in. Loved the hostel pet tortoise! Did find the mattresses quite hard, and the lockers are drawers that don’t fit a lot so everyone’s bags were all over the floor (ironically blocking the drawers) and it felt quite cramped.

This was a really nice hostel. The rooms are spacious with ac and a very nice ensuite bathroom. There's tons of outdoor space and the included breakfast was pretty good. The only issue I had was that it's not the best place to be when it's raining, you often have to pass through outdoor space to get to different areas of the hostel.

We had a great time in this Hostel. The pool was so refreshing and we enjoyed every breakfast

Absolute stellar mixology spot with a wild selection of sotoles. An absolute must for spirit nerds and the staff are lovely.

Great bar for cocktails, mescal, and other indigenous distilled specialities. The cocktails are top notch and the atmosphere is chill with good music. Definitely worth a return trip next time we are in town.

Wow! What an amazing place! Such great service and the best mezcals we have had, and we’ve had a lot haha. We asked to try four of their favorites and they were all beyond amazing! They also brought us a plate of fruit and warm salt to go with the mezcal and it really made the experience one of a kind!! Super super recommend this amazing spot!!!

Huge fan of Mezcal and Sotol and this place has a delicious selection and a wonderful bartender who guides us through some wonderful tastings! Love the music….

Great drinks & fantastic vibes

Beautiful cocktail bar with great ambiance! Had the cuccurrumber - a fantastically refreshing cucumber and rum drink- loved it! Swanky, sexy music fills out the vibe.

Great drinks and great service, there was a cool dj playing smooth in the background. Its a nice bar for a tranquil night out !

This is our favorite hotel in Merida. We have stayed here more than 5 times. The owners and staff treat us like family. Their restaurant serves some of the best vegan food we've ever had with a different menu every night. The rooms are spacious and clean. The perfect place to come home to in the evening.

Great small family run hotel. Owners and staff friendly and helpful. The location is convenient and quiet. The restaurant is vegan and serve a great breakfast with excellent coffee. The evening meal, also vegan, has a different international offering each evening. The service is friendly and atmosphere casual. We will definitely return. J&S

The most perfect place to stay in Mérida. Affordable, beautiful, impeccably kept, historical colonial architecture, clean, quiet: an oasis in the city. The owner is the kindest and most helpful host we've met in all our travels. He speaks multiple languages well, and has a lifetime of experience in the hospitality industry. We have visited twice so far and are eager to return.

I absolutely loved my 7 day stay at Mediomundo. Why? Because it was quiet, cool stone rooms, big dressing room and place to hang your clothes and shelves to organize items. The bed was comfortable and it had air con which I barely used and fresh cool water from the water dispenser. The pool we as lovely and I went there every afternoon. Nelson was a genuine person who was very interesting to chat with and had a big heart. The rooms were very nice with super high ceilings and Mexican hacienda style. I liked this place because it was very private in a quiet neighborhood and surrounded by restaurants, tiendas, Y plazas with live music and a place you do not need a car. I will recommend everyone to stay here and I didn't want to leave. Muchos Gracias and hope to see you around town!

Great place to stay if you don’t mind noise from a fountain or cars, constant light from the corridor, lack of basic cleaning service or mosquitos. Positive aspects: - you can meet new people partying next to your room at midnight, - could be waken up by loud singing and meditating persons, - if the noise, light and mosquitoes don’t make you leave, you are ready for anything, - at least you are not sleeping on the street Negative aspects: - swimming pool rash - sheets not cleaned, - the owner’s attitude- promise service but has a great excuse not to deliver any because of virus. Maybe better to close the business then. It was a quite experience. Even the most remote places in the World that I have stayed in had better service.

Comfortable clean private economical in safe quiet location relatively close to old center and community parks. Highly recommend for English speaking seniors who seek relaxation. Strictly vegan meals that are delicious and original, with middle eastern garnishes and spreads. Excellent staff in Spanish and English with helpful ideas of things to see and enjoy. Comfortable patios and peaceful.

This was my favorite place I have stayed in all of Mexico. The hosts are so kind and genuinely take the time to make sure that your stay in Merida is wonderful. The rooms are so bright and colorful and the entire building feels like an oasis from the heat. I loved the pool, the fountains, and all of the seating areas. I’ll stay here every time I visit Merida :)

Probably would have been a good place to stay but after I contacted the house to make a reservation and the person in charge confirmed my reservation. When the day arrived and I checked if everything is ok to check in, they simply told me it's full and they cannot accommodate me. What kind of business is that? 😃🤙🏼

i was here for a couple of days. they have private rooms and dorms. the dorms was a small four bunk bedroom. The facilities were basic. This place is close to the bus station but a 20 min walk to the center plaza. The caretaker lady was very welcoming. She do not speak english but will use google translate to communicate. The kitchen is well equipped. The toilets could have been better and a locker to keep the bags missing too.

You get what you pay for. Good enough and in a good location. Cons: Mosquitoes in our bedroom, family of cats living in the kitchen, water worked intermittently, flooding when it rained and our toilet did not flush. Pros: Location, 24 hour access, good wifi, the manager is extremely helpful and offered us new sheets mid stay. Worked for us but come with low expectations.

This is not a hostel! Just a room with 4 beds and a broken toilet. Plus a stoned owner, who keeps turning off the running water on his guests.

Good location, cheap, very, very small. The shower in room 5 didn't work very well at all, the water doesn't come out the nozzle properly. The owner charges more to extend your stay than the price on Hostelworld. He also doesn't issue receipts or make a written record when you make a payment in cash so I ended up paying for my extension twice because the owner couldn't remember me paying. I recommend the owner keeps a written record and issue receipts when payments are made in cash.

Its a little rough around the edges so won't suit all tastes (peeling paint, antique feel to the place) but perfect for a couple on a budget! Kitchen had everything you needed to cook but was smelly/felt a bit unsanitary and there were 3 very friendly dogs which we didn't mind but some people might.

We booked 2 nights with booking.com, and messaged before we arrived. The owner reacted that everything was okay, and that they where happy to receive us. But when we arrived there, they told us that there was only place for one of us, in a shared room. Even though they new about our booking, and that we booked a whole room for ourselves. So the owner walked us to a hotel that was more expensive, a few minutes further in the street. And invited us for a free breakfast in the morning in the hostel. So the next morning we went there, and after waiting for an hour, we got our breakfast with the words that we would get a discount for the breakfast. Because apparently he expected us to pay for the breakfast, because we didn't stay at his place and his invention was according to his words "symbolic", and the price he asked was 50 pesos. So after that we left the place without haven taken a bite of the small breakfast.

Nice smaller hotel. Great owner, comfy beds location decent and quiet. Breakfast was pretty good. Could hear noise from the room next door a little throughthroom, but not a big deal.

Nicey located close to downtown Merida. This hotel is a historic house that is in the process of being remodeled (June 2017). At the moment it seems there is only one room available. It looks like the owner lives on the back and they rent 3 rooms on the front of the property, though it seems they are in the process of expanding. The service was nice, the bed was comfy and the location was good. Nice breakfast prepared to order by the owner and wifi was available. Would only accept cash payment, no credit card. Parking was on the same street.

So incredibly helpful with arrangements for catching a early morning bus to Cancun and getting around the city. They have gated parking, a/c, and breakfast incl. Definitely would recommend staying here.

We have been admitted in a room for one person and I wouldnt notice. It did not bother the host and they wouldnt warn you about it. Then make it you charge an extra for rhe breakfast it does not seem very clear from the beginning.

Beautifully furnished hotel with big rooms, AC and uncomplicated check in. Everything super fast. 7 min (4 blocks) from the city centre and 20 min from the bus terminal.

Perfectly nice and helpful staff. Great hotel near the old city and still quite for comfortable sleeping.

Good place to stay right in the center of Merida, very handy, good price/quality deal

Conveniently located near the central ADO bus station, this chill family owned and operated hostel was shockingly quiet and cozy. The owners are incredibly caring and kind. The male owner, Santiago has many recommendations for what you will love to do in Merida and he will explain them while he makes your breakfast; and his wife, Sarah will make you laugh, get you checked in, show you around, and make you feel at home and part of the family within moments of your arrival. Even the dog, Coco, will fall asleep on your lap like you belong there beneath him. Welcome home! Here you will be. I went there planning to stay 1 night, and I very comfortably stayed 5.

Stayed for a couple of nights. The beds are comfy and design is cute, but all staff is full of micro-aggressions. One worker was particularly rude. Her mean attitude upset and insulted me and my friend.

Spent one night in the private room. Bed sheets and bathroom were clean, ground could have been cleaner and there was a big cockroach. We had only one towel. Water was warm and breakfast was good. WiFi was good. The parking is a block away.

Me and my group of friend stayed 5 days in guaya hostel and we really enjoyed our stay! The staff is lovely, they offer breakfast in the morning which i really recommend. The location is great, really close to the bus station and of the main street. If i ever come back to Merida i will def' chose this hostel again!❤️

The room was not clean. There was a strong fish smell. Same for the bathrooms and shower. We didn’t receive clean sheets. The owner is really not kind. The day after we slept, we couldn’t even wait 30 minutes there before taking our bus. The landlord told us we had to pay a day pass for the 30 minutes. I strongly do not recommend.

I stayed here as a work away volunteer for a month let me just say Santiago the owner is the rudest and most unprofessional business owner I have ever met. The place it's self was nice (although I did end up with a lot of bedbug bites at one point) I also had some trouble with my items being "misplaced" I'd ask the wife Sara if she knew where my items were and she'd say she didn't know anything about it then I'd find my stuff in their laundry room and when she saw i found them she said she thought another guest who had checked out already left the items behind, I had my own locker where i kept my stuff so I don't know why she would assume that. I hope others have a different experience but Santiago specifically made my stay less desirable with his rude comments and bad attitude. Would not recommend this place unless there is a change in management.

What I really loved about this hostel is you are having breakfast with the owner and his family, like you are a part of it. It is really a nice chill and small hostel, with a garden, a small roof and pool an very nice equipped kitchen there. On the breakfast they serve waffle fruits or fried egg on a bread and with fruits. The owner of the hostel has a lot information about the city and archeolocigal areas, he really gave nice tips to visit. I really enjoyed the time that I spent there.

It’s a neat little capsule hostel near the centre. Breakfast is included and they have a waffle machine where you can make your own waffles which is very cool and a nice perk! The beds were very clean and they provided towels which was very nice. However, a couple of things I noticed which could be improved: 1. The hooks all fell off the wall and there was absolutely no where to hang your towels. This was really annoying 2. The key card is not very secure as it opens all the lockers, not just the one you’re assigned to…. 3. There isn’t a plug inside a capsule and you can only plug one USB C and one USB cable to the wall. If you want to charge a laptop or anything else then you need to leave your device in the hallway or outside. 4. It’s NOT fire safe at all. If you need to leave the capsule then you need to press a button. This button only works if the keycard is slotted in and your capsule has electricity. So if you accidentally lock yourself in without the keycard, there is no way out… the emergency unlock button does not work Oh and also you can only pay in cash which was annoying… But, for the price you pay, it is still very good and I would recommend it despite the flaws. Just be aware of the points above when you’re there and prepare accordingly

This place is okay for maybe one maximum 2 nights. Firstly, it’s pretty far from the centre of town, at least a 20 minute walk. When we arrived there had been some heavy rain & there was a bucket in the reception area to collect water (a great first impression 😅). They couldn’t accept card as their card machine doesn’t work, which is really inconvenient. Considering that the capsules are for two people, they only provide a locker big enough to fit one bag in. Meaning our other bag had to be left in the already cramped hallway. The capsules themselves are alright, a unique experience if anything. The A/C wasn’t working in ours so it would get hot throughout the night, which made it a little claustrophobic. There is only one USB port inside the capsule, again it’s for two people so this is useless & there’s no where to charge a laptop, another inconvenience. The shared bathrooms have a really disgusting smell coming from them, we had to hold our breaths every time we went inside. The showers & toilets are dirty & there is black mould growing on the ceiling. Some more care towards cleanliness would go a long way, we didn’t see any cleaners the entire two nights we spent here. Positives we can think of are the price, it’s one of the cheaper places to stay in Merida & the fact that they provide towels. Other than that, the place is pretty shit.

This hotel would make the hotels on ‘Gordon Ramsey’s Hotel Hell’ look like the Ritz. There are sooo many things wrong with this place, it’s hard to even start. Firstly, who we presumed was the manager knew nothing about hospitality & how to treat a customer. The ‘showers’ if that’s what you can call them, are SO bad & dirty it’s beyond belief. What’s more than water can change in an instant from luke warm to boiling hot, due to other people showering or using the loo’s meaning it’s impossible to get a steady temperature for longer than 10 seconds. The owner needs to open his eyes & stop seeing tourists as money bags, actually invest in this place & stop being a tight git.

No maintenance at all dirty badromm the place is ok for 1 night

Lacking soul and cleaning staff.

(Translated by Google) My experience at Kapsul Mérida was good; the attention from the entire staff was sensational. Perhaps the only minor issue would be the cleanliness of both the capsule and the showers and bathrooms. And perhaps they could work on better soundproofing the capsules, as it's easily audible and sometimes makes it difficult to sleep. What really stands out about the experience is the friendly service from the entire staff and the innovative concept. I would definitely return. :) (Original) Mi experiencia en Kapsul Mérida fue buena si; la atención de todo el equipo fué sensacional, quizás el único detalle sería la limpieza tanto en la cápsula como en las regaderas y baños. Y quizás que trabajaran en aislar mejor el ruido de las cápsulas ya que si se escucha con facilidad y en ocasiones cuesta conciliar el sueño. Lo que rescata la experiencia es el buen trato de todo el equipo, y lo novedoso del concepto. Sin dudarlo regresaría. :)

(Translated by Google) If you're just staying for one night, it's a good option—affordable, comfortable, and clean. Although it could be better in this regard, it's an option if you're just passing through; they have options for 1 and 2 people. For longer stays, it's a bit cold and not as comfortable. Luggage can be stored outside the capsule area in locked lockers. You can park on the street in front of the hotel. There's always a staff member, but they could improve their attitude. Overall, it's good. (Original) Si vas sólo por una noche, es buena opción, económico, cómodo y limpio, aunque podría mejorar en este aspecto, es opción si solo vas de paso, tienen opciones de 1 y 2 personas. Para estancias más largas, si es algo frío y no tan cómodo. Las maletas van afuera del área de cápsulas, en lockers con llave. Puedes estacionarte en la calle frente al hotel, Siempre hay una persona del staff pero pudieran mejorar la actitud. En general bien.

New bar and enhanced amenities since my last visit- I have never commented on toilet power before but they have the best toilet paper and paper towels I have ever encountered in a rental. Even five star hotels 😝 the service was wonderful in the morning for coffee and the 2 for 1 special had long hours , there are daily specials and the pool is very clean and welcoming , there is a large modern communal kitchen and the bikes are in very good condition , I will rent here again for short term between places

Really unexpectedly luxurious hostel, and a really fun crew of volunteers to be around with! Yes it’s not in the center, but I will argue that this actually even gives it a more authentic taste. The pool is amazing to have, the rooms are clean and spacious. And I’m not saying all that just because of the free beer. It’s actually a thing. Check it out Morties!

This is a brand new hostel and no detail has been overlooked in its coming together, the design is flawless, all details have been thought of. The kitchen is well stocked, the bedding is new and the mattresses and pillows are high quality, the dorms are spacious, it's super clean, there are loads of social areas to hang out, super nice staff, really decent coffee, free water and free bikes. I have no idea how it is so cheap. It's not in the centre, thats a 10-minute cycle which we didn't mind at all. They try to offer optional activities every day if you're feeling social, so perfect for solo travellers, but we felt no pressure to join in if we didn't want. The neighbourhood is really pretty and safe. We loved Merida, best vibe on our travels all through Mexico. If I was being nit-picky for one improvement it would be that it would be nice if the dorm beds had curtains for a little privacy, but that's the only thing I can think of. Super nice place.

This hostel in Merida exceeded expectations with its modern, clean and cozy accommodations. The friendly staff provided excellent service, we can also rent bike for 25pesos the day!

This is a great hostel that has recently opened! The staff are super buena onda, and we really took advantage of the pool and the free bikes. They definitely make the heat more bearable! The air-con is also really good, and esential to get a good night's sleep. Its great value for money. Would definitely come back. Perfect for both group and solo travellers, couples and people visiting Merida for a short time. Hasta la proxima!

I've gotta say, hands down, the best hostel experience I've had in Mexico. This place has got that artistic touch in its design and decor, giving off this super chill yet spiritual vibe. They've got it all – a cinema room, a kitchen that's basically a chef's dream, a pool that actually works, and a gym cozy enough for some yoga or cardio sessions. Oh, and the free breakfast? It's a lazy vacation dream – from 9 to 11. Perfect for those late risers like me. Sure, I've heard some folks grumble about the location, but personally, I'm loving it. What I did was catch a bus from Park San Juan (close to the ADO terminal), asked for the route to the Park of Las Americas, hopped on for a 10-minute joy ride, all for just 7 pesos, and boom, I'm at the hostel. And let me tell you, it's a stone's throw away from the Park of Las Americas – great spot for workouts, chilling, and diving into some street food goodness. Need groceries? La Macarena Petronila is just a 10-minute stroll, and they've got this killer deal on roasted chicken – under 100 pesos! Beats Walmart prices any day. Plus, you can snag a bike for just 25 pesos a day. But seriously, the real MVPs here are the staff and the owner. Top-notch patience, super helpful, and welcoming vibes all around. Major props to the owner for actively hiring more female workers, supporting the community – impressive move. Casa Encuentro De Joaquín Garcia isn't your typical party scene; it's more like a Yucatán oasis where you can unwind, get some remote work done, and just feel at home for a while. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Stayed at this cozy Casa in Mexico and loved it! Clean rooms and had a real family vibe. The place is nice and quiet. The staff is awesome, really friendly and made me feel right at home. Totally recommend it! 😊

You can see that the hosts, Roger and George, had at one time put a lot of time and energy in to this beautiful facility but today many things are in need of attention. Dirty floors, burnt out lights, and rusted out furniture are a shame. The pool should be a nice retreat but I found it dark, overgrown and the stones around the pool are uneven and in need of a good cleaning. Beautiful antiques in each room tell of the love and effort that was once here but today everything shows the lack of attention. And even sadder is that what was once a retreat in this busy city is now overpowered by a noisy nightclub only a block away. Everything is adequate, including the breakfast, but nothing is remarkable.

If your preference is for something unique and not mainstream, you will find it in Casa Mexilio. Ornately adorned with antique object that each have their own place, this place is full of charm. We stayed in the Penthouse, which has it's own patio and rooftop porch. I found it to be economical, especially coming from Tulum. The location is a five minute walk to the main plaza. No regrets staying here for a couple of nights.

The rooms are beautiful and spacious and the staff is very friendly and attentive. (Original) Buena ubicación, justo a la vuelta del emblemático parque de Santiago.

Very Beautiful, super clean , quiet and romantic villa . The owner and the staff are very kind and also super pet friendly. We will definitely come back whenever we get to Merida again. Thank you for the wonderful stay villa Octavia! Andy, Bruno and Allison

This is one of the most beautiful houses I ever seen in Merida .The owner is a very nice person. If you want to visit Merida and you dont know where stay, this is te perfect place.

Wow, this place deserves all 5 stars and more. It is stunning, with gorgeous art and impeccable design in every space. The owner and staff make you feel right at home, they are friendly, warm and happy to help with anything from dinner or tour reservations to restaurant recommendations. The location was perfectly situated between the Plaza Grande downtown and the tony Paseo Montejo area, as well as a 10-15 minute walk to the lovely Parque Santa Lucia and even closer to Parque and mercado Santa Ana and the delicious upscale restaurants of Calle 47 (don't miss Micaela Mar y Leña on 47th or music in Santa Lucia park Thursdays at 9pm). When we got home every night, not only was our room always spotless, they left little chocolate kisses and, on Valentine's day, gorgeous mini brownies with flower frosting ❤️. Highly recommend, especially for a romantic get away.

Very warm host, nice old house, 15 minute walk to downtown.

(Translated by Google) Unfortunate stay although the house is beautiful and beautiful for the aesthetics there is no complaint, we rented through Air b and b, but we had a TERRIBLE problem IN THE DRAINAGE of two rooms, we used the tub in the room called ROSA and it connects to another room, when draining the tub, all my water came out through the next room, which flooded the entire room of the neighbor who was staying, the worst thing is that it came out with 💩💩💩 this happened twice in the 3-day stay and well we had to clean dirty water with 💩 that drained from the room to the living room and kitchen, you can imagine the terrible smell... it happened twice because they didn't even know what was causing it until I realized it, the first time they sent cleaning and the second time it happened at night they didn't send cleaning until mid-morning of the next day OBVIOUSLY I HAD ALREADY CLEANED BECAUSE I WASN'T GOING TO BE WITH THE SMELL OF POOP THROUGHOUT THE HOUSE. Another point: The private pools in each room are out of service. I assume that's why their cistern doesn't have the capacity to handle so much water, because water gushes out with 💩💩. They don't tell you this until you make a reservation that they can't be used. Another point: There are no irons to iron your clothes, so you walk around all wrinkled. The app indicates that there are irons, but they don't have one in the house. Although the place is beautiful, this is a big demerit on the experience! Little mistakes ruin a great place, such a shame. (Original) Desafortunada estancia si bien la casa es bella y hermosa por la estetica no hay queja, rentamos mediante Air b and b , pero tuvimos un problema TERRIBLE EN EL DRENAJE de dos cuartos , usabamos la tina de la habitacion llamada ROSA y se conecta con otro cuarto, al desagüar la tina, toda mi agua salia por el cuarto de alado, lo cual nos inundó toda la habitación del vecino hospedado, lo peor es que salia con 💩💩💩 esto pasó dos veces en la estancia de 3 dias y pues tuvimos que limpiar agua sucia con 💩que escurrió del cuarto hasta sala y cocina ya se imaginaran el olor terrible…..pasó dos veces por que ni ellos sabian que lo causaba hasta que yo me di cuenta, la primer vez mandaron limpieza y la segunda vez paso de noche no mandaron a limpiar hasta la media mañana del dia siguiente OBVIOOOO YA HABIA LIMPIADO YO POR QUE NO HIBA A ESTAR CON EL OLOR A CACA POR TODA LA CASA. Otro punto las albercas privadas que tiene cada habitación estan fuera de servicio, supongo por lo mismo su cisterna no tiene capacidad de recibir tanta descarga de agua, por que brota agua con 💩💩, eso no te lo dicen hasta que ya reservas sobre que no se pueden usar, otro punto , no hay planchas para planchar tu ropa, asi q uno anda todo arrugado , en la app indica que si hay y no tienen ninguna en la casa, si bien el lugar es bello con esto es un gran tache en experiencia!! pequeños errorsitos arruinan un gran lugar , una lastima

(Translated by Google) A beautiful place in the center of Mérida. They welcomed us very kindly with our dog Negrita, who made friends with Rosita, the loving guardian of the place.
