This is a historic building that is being maintained at a high level. The only thing to comment on is the low quality of towels being used and sometimes the inconsistency of cleaning staff to supply the appropriate number of towels. Even though, I would stay here again.

This is a very charming hotel just a short walk from the city historic center. This is not your cookie cutter hotel. Quiet, and relaxing. Away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. It has a beautiful patio courtyard with a fountain and a second courtyard with a pool. The room we had was very spacious with very high ceilings. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant staff were very attentive. I would come back to La Mision Del Fray Diego Boutique Hotel.

Not a bad hotel, but could be a lot better
All and all, the hotel was fine. Front desk people were great, friendly and helpful. Bar/restaurant people were at times rude, slow, and quite unfriendly. There were also a couple bellboys or whatever they were called that slept the entire time. Rooms were okay. Beds are firm/hard. Bathroom is small but functional. Pool was nice, water perfect temperature decent seating space for small groups. Restaurant was not really worth the money (especially breakfast). Very few options for breakfast. Location was pretty good, only 1.5 blocks from the main square.

This was an absolutely beautiful old building remade into a boutique hotel. There is a lovely pool in the courtyard and the rooms are very pretty and comfortable. The staff goes way out of its way to be helpful. For example when we could not stay for our complimentary breakfast they send us off to the airport with a box lunch for each of us. I couldn't recommend it more highly and I have stayed in a number of hotels in Merida

Property was a block away from hotel. Room was run down and in bad shape. Toilet flushes once every 10 minutes as it would take that long for tank to fill. Bathroom overall was gross and needed to be remodeled 20 years ago. Pillows were stained with what looked like blood. Towels looked old and dingy. A chair was falling apart and had to pull aside so kids wouldn’t sit on it. Overall room looked straight out of Narcos Mexico torture scene….

This boutique hotel really is most beautiful; - this is actually the reason we have chosen to book our six nights stay there, -'old world charm' at its best. The one person we spoke with the most is Carlos, who is extremely friendly and helpful; - but then again, - all the staff were so friendly and helpful and efficient. A most wonderful experience. Viva Mérida - y Viva México !!!

Amazing stay - would always come back
The hotel is really close to the main plaza. It is really charming and beautiful, very personal with the courtyard and the pool. No street noise at all, as rooms are in second courtyard. Rooms were clean and have an old charm. Once the room service found out we had a kid, her towel was shaped each time in a different way, a rabbit, an elephant, a girl. Our daughter was absolutely delighted. Such a nice personal touch. Only the pool wasn’t super clean.

What an amazing stay. The staff are so attentive and friendly. Everyone was bilingual or trilingual. The property was close to the town square and great restaurants. The hotel is very quaint and the building is historic, so just note that if you’re looking for soundproof rooms or really modern, it’s not that. And it might not be a good remote work spot if you need high speed wifi (my room in the back of the hotel had less reception than my mom’s room at the front).

Would not book again.
We stayed in the “garden view hot tub suite”. I would not book this room for the garden view or the hot tub. The hot tub was very old and had hair in it when we arrived. The room was big but overall would not stay here again. Woke up both nights with ant bites and spider bites. Ants all over the room. The staff was kind and we especially appreciated being able to book a CoVID test (to return to the USA) through the front desk, performed in our room. I do not think the poor conditions of the room should reflect on restaurant / front desk staff who were kind.
