San Juan Guelavía Vacations from $768

The hotel is nice and clean, but the restaurant is very expensive and the food isn't that great. It's very far from the city center and the main square (Zócalo), a 24-minute walk. For elderly people or those with health problems, it's not a good place unless they have a car or take a taxi (120 pesos for a 5-minute drive). Taxis are very expensive, and the hotel is located between some dangerous avenues to cross on foot. I think it's better to pay a little more or choose a simpler hotel in the city center so you can walk everywhere. It was a mistake I made, but I learned my lesson for next time.

This was my 4th trip to Oaxaca but my first staying in a hotel. Best decision! The hotel itself is beautiful in an old, historic building. We loved the courtyard not only to eat but just to hang out and visit with our family. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Ricardo, manager, and all of the staff were kind, friendly and helpful. The area/neighborhood is quiet but is an easy walk to anywhere you might want to go. We will definitely stay here again on future visits and recommend it to anyone else - it was a fabulous experience!

Staff was very professional and helpful. The room, in fact the entire hotel is a work of art.

The house is beautiful, clean rooms, friendly staff and a pretty view of the street. The bed was a little bit uncomfortable, but other than that, it is a nice place to stay.

This hotel has so much history - it was once a convent. The staff was wonderful and friendly and helpful. And the location is ideal, with markets and restaurants all walkable. Totally recommend!
