The hotel is right in the heart of the city. Just a few blocks in any direction will keep you busy day and night. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. They go out of their way to provide good service. The hotel is obviously old, but that is part of its’ charm. It is historic and culturally grand, and they keep it in decent condition. But if you are looking for modern perfection, then go stay at the Hilton. I prefer to be where the people treat you like you are part of the family.

Todo fue genial. El único problema menor fue que el WIFI no llegaba a la habitación, así que tuve que ir al pasillo para usar el wifi y hacía mucho calor afuera, pero me quedaría allí de nuevo.

Ok for the price.
It's a very old hotel. Beautiful and part of Merida's history. It could use some renovation and fresh painting all over the halls, rooms and bathrooms. The elevator could be substituted for a new one. What was really a problem was the WIFI service. Not good at all. Specially in the rooms since it only has one modem for all the hotel. Even in common areas like the lobby WIFI is slow and weak.

We should have know you can’t go back. We stayed here for 4 weeks 36 years ago and thought a bit of nostalgia would be fun. It’s an ok hotel, the room we booked was in the deepest bowels of the hotel, it was horrible. There are no pictures of this room. We paid for an upgrade as they knew we would and the charged us an extra night. The refund was so arduous for them we said $&@! it, as they knew we would. That said the place is clean and our room was quiet and centrally located. I am afraid we will not be back. There are so many better options.

We payed for cook to order breakfast for 7 days and all we got was daily vouchers for 'complementary continental breakfast' Fruit ,cereal and coffee . If you order an actual breakfast you have to pay extra and for the price you can definitely eat better elsewhere . Everything else was great and the location is perfect!

The parking is really far. It spoilled our Day 1. We then paid for parking in the adjoining lot. That made things easier. Otherwise its really conveniently located close to the Historic center. Good restaurants and shops really close
