Hotel Casantica
The complete renovation and remodeling of the former Hotel Pombo resulted in The Hostal CasAntica. The hotel consists of 2 interconnecting buildings. One has a large terrace on the 2nd floor. Here you can sit back and relax drink a cup of coffee or get a perfect suntan. All of this while enjoying the big 200 year old Cantera wall. On the third floor of this building you have the most astonishing view of the Oaxacan churches. The other one has a small patio with a beautiful fountain. Around the patios the former nun rooms have been remodeled to 20 Superior rooms safeguarding the colonial design from those times. On the North wall we have 3 floors with 26 standard rooms designed in the old rustic Oaxacan Colonial style. The style of the building reflects the architectural style of that age as well as the typical look of a convent. The inner patio has a heated swimming pool and a beautiful stone fountain right by the Cantera wall. While respecting the rules for the Historical Conservation we tried to implement all modern comfort such as double window doors; cooler fan; Cable TV; digital telephone and Internet jacks. If you wish your stay to be more comfortable we offer you our Jr. Suites with more space and comfort. Our Master Suites have two floors and our Presidential Suite has all the commodities and luxury for a room of this class. The Arco de San Miguel Restaurant used to be the church of the convent. It has the original Arch which has been restored as well as the painting of the Saint Michael the Archangel. Our main goal is to keep our guests happy and we want them to come back in the future. Besides our history and the impressive building it is the owners personal attention and their intention to try and please as much as possible which makes this hotel the best choice for your stay in Oaxaca. Additional Information; Children age 10 and under stay free in the room with parents. Children over this age will be considered an adult.

Charming and convenient
My husband and I traveled in Mexico with our 2 teenage children, and were thrilled with Hostal Casantica. The room was small and a little gloomy, but there is a large, sunny terrace complete with tables and chairs that was perfect for sitting on. The outdoor swimming pool inside the courtyard was warm and well-maintained. The hotel was immaculately clean and bright, painted in bright oranges and yellows, with plants and scupltures. The hotel staff were a delight - they were very friendly and helpful, and did speak decent English, although my husband is fluent in Spanish. The hotel is conveniently located a couple of blocks from the zocalo. There is parking available for a reasonable fee a few blocks away, although the hotel staff gave us the wrong address for the lot. The only problem we had was that the shower was poorly designed and the water did not drain, but seeped into the bathroom and flooded the floor.
