I rarely leave negative reviews, but this stay was disappointing from beginning to end.

The problems started before I even arrived. There was a major festival with road closures around the hotel, yet no one informed us in advance. We arrived with luggage only to find ourselves stranded in large crowds, with no guidance on how to access the property. A simple email or text would have completely avoided this.

After checking in, I mentioned to the staff that better communication would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, the communication issues continued.

The next morning, I was awakened very early by loud construction immediately next to my room. Once again, there had been no warning. For a hotel charging premium rates, this is unacceptable.

The final straw came on the second night when the air conditioning stopped working. At around 2:00 a.m., I had to pack all my belongings and move rooms. What was presented as an “upgrade” turned out to be an even noisier room, making it nearly impossible to get a good night’s sleep.

The hotel offered only a small credit for the inconvenience, but there was little effort to truly recover the experience or make things right.

For the prices this property charges, guests should expect proactive communication, a quiet room, and everything to function properly. Instead, we experienced poor communication, construction noise, and a room change in the middle of the night.

If you want to enjoy a vacation, I would stay away from this place!

The room is small, with the bathroom beibg extremely small. Two people cannot fit in the bathroom. The room looks fabulous but is not very functional. Poor lighting, not enough clothes hangers (although they did bring more when we called), the window shutter does not fully close so you will be waking up early! Overall, the personel were very nice and helpful, the hotel is beautiful and the rooms look great - they are just not very functional. Tiny closet as well. No drawers.

El hotel está bien situado. Nuestro cuarto muy pequeño, incómodo y sin ningún detalle. Parecía cuarto de hostal. Creo que asumir que por ser un hotel”boutique” los cuartos pueden tener lo mínimo, no esta bien. El precio es muy alto, para lo que se recibe.

The staff really made the stay, all were genuine friendly and attentive. The room felt really special, the design details were considered and our room in particular felt somewhere cozy to retreat to from the bustle of the street. The swimming pool was being renovated which was a shame as it would have been nice to have a facility to relax with but overall we really enjoyed our time here - the stay was our favourite of our entire trip.

So happy we chose this hotel. It’s full of character very modern but very rustic at the same time. However, be wary when selecting your room. We initially had a room on the top floor and unfortunately the traffic noise was quite loud surprisingly. We didn’t get asked to move to a patio room which was much quieter. Also ask if you’ll be close to construction Because there was construction happening but that sometimes can’t be avoided. The breakfast was decent and basic, the staff fairy friendly. And close to some great restaurants and shops.

Do not choose rooms 1-3 (or whichever are facing the courtyard). Not sure how they rent these when they have music all day and a show with a guy signing during the pms! Ok if you are not planning to take a nap or enjoy your room during the afternoon. Another example of how hotels try to maximize returns without thinking in their guests.

Great Hotel, but noisy

The hotel is beautiful, but it is located in a very busy street, and the windows don't seal all exterior sounds. If they changed the wooden windows for a sealed double pane windows they would be able to get a better seal.

My partner and I stayed here for 6 nights during our recent trip to Oaxaca and we absolutely loved the experience. The hotel is beautifully designed - very instagrammable from so many angles. The rooms were comfortable, and the staff was welcoming and helpful. We got stuck here for 2 extra nights due to a hurricane, and the hotel did a great job making us feel comfortable and safe during this harrowing experience where we were able to leave due to flights being grounded. The location is good - really close to the sites in town. It does get a bit noisy outside with the normal city traffic - at lease from our room - but use ear plugs if you can't handle (which they provide). In the end, we do recommend this hotel based on our experience here.

One of of my favorite hotels, such a beautiful property, it’s like an oasis in the middle of Oaxaca city. The design of the property and rooms is stunning yet simple, each room has a portable bose speaker and nice lighting to set the mood.

The roof top is a fun place to hang out and have a cocktail and the end of a busy day exploring, watching the sunset.

Cannot wait to stay here again!

Me and my girlfriend stayed at the hotel for 3 nights and it was definitely well worth it. Its location (along with most other hotels in the city) is well located and walking distance to mostly all the restaurants and bars. When we arrived at the hotel they right away took our luggage and brought it up to our rooms, as well as gave us a pretty delicious welcome cocktail. In terms of architecture its fabulous, as most Habitas Group hotels are. The room was well thought out and very comfortable as well. The stay included a basic breakfast that consisted of some bread with a meat and cheese platter, as well as a bowl of fruit. It was basic but it got the job done. We didn’t eat at the hotel other than the included breakfast so not too sure about how the food is, but Im sure it is delicious like most of the food in Oaxaca. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anybody staying in the area!

The property is located a little off the main center of the old town. Which is good as makes it a bit more peaceful. The staff is very helpful. We got the standard room with the king size bed. Found it to be a bit small. And water came in during a rain storm and seems to have spread over the whole floor.

Hôtel au décor sublime et délicat, comme tous les hôtels du Grupo Habita. Personnel serviable et agréable. En revanche, le côté pingre de l’hôtel gâche un peu le séjour : lorsque l’on paie presque 400€ par nuit, n’avoir accès qu’au simple buffet et se voir notifier qu’un cappuccino ou des œufs au plat seront facturés en supplément laisse un goût amer.
