Santiago Huauclilla Vacations from $982

Positives: Location was great. Staff were very friendly. Rooms were cleaned very well. Courtyard area was very nice. Food at the restaurant was good. Negatives: Our room was quite dark and didn’t have much natural light. Wifi in our room wasn’t very good and would drop out often and was generally very slow during our 4 day stay. Our room (#101) was close to the restaurant so it was quite noisy. This was an issue in the morning as staff are setting up early for breakfast so it wakes you up. Overall our stay was OK, but I would avoid room #101. We tried to swap rooms but there was none available when we asked.

Very central to all, and room was beautifully appointed, and quite spacious The air conditioning worked well, bed was just right to our liking, not too soft, not too hard. You have amenities in the bathroom, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, soap that all smell heavenly “verbena”, as well as you are provided robes, a coffee station and bottled water. The hotel had bikes (4) and one motorized scooter for guests, did not use since we had a car. The “parking” is arranged with a 3rd party, and is around the block. However we did not use. Fortunately we were able to leave our car right in front of the front door (only one spot for loading and unloading) since we had a 5:00am departure. We would definitely return to this hotel, with one caveat, a room in the back that would be quieter.

A wonderful — and very beautiful — boutique hotel with kind and very efficient staff. They spoke English expertly and were eager to help in any way needed. The breakfasts provided were delicious! The hotel is a short walk to the major tourist and shopping sites. I would definitely stay here again on future visits to Oaxaca!

Clean rooms, friendly staff & excellent location in the heart of the city.
