Nothing but wonderful things to say about this hotel. The rooms are gorgeous, the staff is helpful, breakfast was fantastic, the rooftop bar is perfect. We will recommend this hotel to anyone going to Oaxaca. It is in a very clean and safe area of Centro and everything is very walkable from here.

We stayed at Hotel Azul for nine nights and absolutely loved it. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful from start to finish. The hotel itself is beautiful—tastefully designed with a peaceful courtyard and charming details throughout.

The location is just about perfect. It’s a quick five-minute walk to the Zócalo, so everything is easily accessible, but it’s also tucked away on a quieter street. Even during Guelaguetza, we had no trouble getting a good night’s sleep.

The included breakfast was very good—fresh, well-prepared, and a nice option to have. That said, we didn’t take advantage of it as often as we could have, mostly because we were eager to explore the incredible food scene in Oaxaca.

All in all, Hotel Azul was the perfect base camp for exploring one of the most interesting and vibrant cities I’ve ever visited. We’d absolutely stay here again.

The only negative is that the rooms are a little dark. The lighting is poor. The rooms don’t have open windows. They have blinds that give you some light from the center courtyard but it’s really not enough light.

The hotel staff and Mexican food at this hotel were wonderful! It's very walkable and just a couple blocks from the cathedral of Santa Domingo. The toliet in room 4 did not flush well. Except for that 1 thing the hotel was great for the price! There was even a wedding at the hotel while I was there!

Virtual extortion

All of the hotel would have been excellent except the day before we were to return we had to deal with a virtual extortion of one of our people in our group. We are convinced it was an inside job of an employee working at this hotel. Security is a big concern so I wouldn’t recommend this hotel for that reason.

We stayed at Hotel Azul over a a sunny weekend in February. Our room was right next to the cleaning / storage room and stag kept passing by and arranging items loudly at all times. The room’s only window overlooks the passage so we felt very exposed.
As in some other hotels in Mexico, the toilets are not separated with a door from the rest of the room, which could be an uncomfortable feeling for some.

Great service but hotel not a good value

The location was excellent as were the Staff themselves but we were very disappointed with the hotel itself. We had water issues the first night causing great inconvenience when we wanted to shower. The following days we had water but had to leave water running for well over 15 mins to get the hot water in the sink or shower. And while we didn’t use the AC much the controller was not as easy to use - we had to fiddle with it a bit to get it to turn on. For a hotel in this price range these flaws are both unfortunate and a real let down.

HORRIBLE Stay Away!!!

It's Horrible STAY AWAY.
First off I called the Hotel to request an airport pick up and was told it was 300 pesos. I agreed and booked it. When the driver dropped us at the hotel he told us it was 600... the women I spoke to lied and said she never told me the price. Total rip off.
Than I inquired about the tour price which she quoted at 300 pesos an hour... lied again and said it was actually 400.
The room had no light!!! it faced a courtyard and of course you can't open the window because everyone would be able to see you. It was like a cave... dark dark dark.
I left and found another place... went back to tell them I was checking out and they did not care at all - didn't even ask me why!!!! And refused to give any refund back on a 3 night booking.
Hotels.com also was not very helpful in trying to get me my $ back considering I've booked countless rooms with them. Only thing I got was a small credit. I expected more for having been a gold and silver client.
I would NEVER send anyone to that hotel.

Beautiful and clean hotel. Our room was immaculate and very well laid out. The bathroom tile was gorgeous and they had nice shampoo/soap. I typically bring my own but these were nice! The two courtyards were each unique and lovely. We enjoyed spending time in both. The breakfast was so delicious! Exceeded my expectations. Location is fabulous - close to everything but not so close that you hear the noise. I highly recommend - I would tell my mother to stay here.

Worst hotel experience yet

Lets talk about the good: Its a clean hotel and the location is flawless; you can walk to also any main point of interest within 10 minutes. Lastly its a quiet hotel, with a decent rooftop. The breakfast is top-notch, better than Casa Oaxaca.

The bad: The design room of the is absolutely terrible. The bathroom is \"open\" style. That means that there is no door between the toilet /shower area and the room. Which means the rest of the guests in the room will have to step out for a few minutes.

The walls are paper thin. If you sneeze, the other guests will hear it.

Hotel Azul has a fantastic Oaxaca ambiance. It is in walking distance of wonderful restaurants, the Zocolo, and most of the other sites you would want to visit. The staff is exceptional, so kind and accommodating. They often helped us with making reservations, finding directions, etc. The food at the hotel was delicious, and the included breakfast was a great added bonus. I would definitely stay there again.

Well located hotel.

The hotel is very well located, it is very clean and the staff very nice. The particular room that I was assigned (Suite Dubon) is not very comfortable. It is difficult to get in and out of bed because of the setting. The other that this particular room has is that is next to a service room, which means that since early morning there is a lot of noise from the staff.

A Cantina Hotel

This hotel is used as a venue. Every night hotel hold parties with loud music and noisy people. There was no way to have a decent sleep... Worst thing is that in the morning, hotel had a bachelor party making this impossible to have a nice rest. Common areas are leased to locals to have their private parties. GM was useless and not helpful at all.

Clean, modern, and very chic. But dark rooms.

The location can't be beat. And the fixtures, bathrooms, etc., are all top-notch, so much more civilized than many of the more tired or run-down places in Oaxaca. They had fresh fruit waiting on a plate in the room, they had all sorts of things in case you needed them, including advil and pepto-bismol in the room. And condoms in case you need them! Seemed to be populated with by wealthy people from Mexico City. And the breakfast was a nice buffet of yummy mexican foods. The room was modern and sparse, if you like that. But the room was so oppressively dark, the modern window the cortyard and the only way to let light in was to fold in the heavy grill, but that then let everyone from outside see in the room. So we kept in the dark.

Just about perfect

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Azul. The hotel design is impressive and the location is perfect (easy walking distance to all tourist attractions in town, but just far enough off the main tourist strip to be a bit secluded). My only quibble with the building is that I found the bathroom layout awkward. The breakfast was great and the staff were friendly and helpful. We had an early departure on the last day and had a few issues as the arrangements we had made re: taxis and breakfast were not taken care of, but we managed to get it sorted out. Despite that little hiccough, we would definitely stay there again.

Excelent stay! Attached to the boutique concept

I had a very pleasant stay and the staff exceeded my expectations. They welcomed us before the check-in time and also extended the check-out in order to fit our schedule. The bike rentals (free of charge) are great if you want to travel around (make sure to save energies for the uphill road). Make sure you check-in @ Foursquare if you want to receive a nice surprise. One thing we missed was the nice terrace in the upper area, we had not realized about it until our check-out.
