About Barrio Latino

This Italian-managed boutique hotel, opened in 1997, celebrates traditional Mexican design through the respectful vision of a European architect, further refined over the years by a resident Mexican designer.

Located in Casco Viejo (the old town featuring Mayan ruins alongside charming single-story homes and restaurants from the late 1970s), the hotel offers convenient access to beaches, pedestrian areas, the ferry dock, and bus stations.

Guests enjoy a safe, characteristic neighborhood where a mix of European and Mexican residents live alongside established local families.

It's a good budget hotel in a convenient location.

It's a good budget hotel in a convenient location. Its very convenient to 5th Avenue, the bus station and the ferry to Cozumel. A really good Italian restaurant is across the street and many more restaurants, shops, dive operators, convenience stores and cafes are close. It's a cute, clean hotel, the rooms are simply but nicely decorated. The room was very clean, but because they leave the windows open ( no screens), the room had lots of mosquitos. I got bug spray from reception, so except for the smell, not a huge problem. I sprayed the room and left to go to dinner. There was a mini fridge, but it didn't work. It's very low season right now, so there was plenty of time to check that it worked. It has a bit of standing water in it. It's HOT this time of year, so that would really have been nice. There was also pretty noticable music from a nearby club, it went on pretty late and it was a Sunday, so be prepared for noise - to be fair, that the same for most places in the vicinity of 5th or 10th Avenue. All in all, it was fine.

2nd time at this property. I like the proximity to the beach, 5th Ave, restaurants, shopping and the Pier with Ferries to Cozumel. All within walking distance. The only thing was the noice from a nightclub in the corner. Music very loud, but after a couple of night you get used to it.

The hotel looked like the picture , the staff was friendly. It’s walkable to the beach and many restaurants. The room was clean , comfy the amenities is nothing high end but clean. Note the following; the pool is not on property , it’s in another hotel. No elevator so if you can’t use stair then it’s not for you. The parking is limited it your renting a car , I don’t as lucky that I got a parking but if I left I would probably loose my spot. Over all it was nothing fancy but I enjoyed the location.

It’s a quaint property and handy to many amenities. The bed is very hard, if you like a firm
mattress. If I was to offer a suggestion for improvement, I would recommend having coffee available at the location. Although there’s a communal coffee maker, it’s just for hot water and it’s just not convenient. But I really loved the location, and I loved the resident cat 😁

This has been a lovely, value-for-money stay at a very convenient location in the heart of Playa del Carmen. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful and having them at the gated entrance 24 hour round was a great tick in the piece of mind box. Yes, the bar at the street corner could be loud some nights, but only occasionally, and a pair of earplugs (available from the reception) does the trick.

Nice stay at barillo

I loved the hotel in the day time but evening it’s too noisy because of a bar near by till 2 or 3 am . They also charge for an other person to stay in a a room made for two so it’s quiet strange to me as I never experience it before . I like that there is many local restaurant around and beach is close . The cat :) the place is lovely and the staff very kind

The staff was great here and it’s cheap and convenient location, but the biggest issue for me was that the doors didn’t deadbolt and the doors were pretty thin so if you’re a nervous traveller I would opt for something a bit more expensive. All the budget hotels are like this there though. Cute little seating areas outside though with a hammock which was nice and overall it was pretty clean.

Great if all you need is a clean bed

I just needed a bed and a clean room and got it here. It's pretty bare bones but it does the trick. There's no drinking water available which is kind of annoying but I guess they're saving on costs where they can.

Bring ear plugs. I chose this place in part to avoid the 5th Avenue noise but there's a bar blasting music within ear shot.

Air conditioner was non-functional in that it did not blow any cool air, just room temperature. It was obvious that the refrigerant had been depleted and hadn't been serviced in years.The rooms two electrical outlets were also non-functional in that they were worn out and could not firmly hold the the plug of the device you would plug into the outlet.

The location is perfect for a solo traveler, it’s safe, central and 5 mins to the beach and bus station.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The room had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It is a very walkable location. The staff was friendly. A big bonus was Enzo, the resident cat. He was so friendly and came to our room multiple times to hang out. The sound from the bar nearby is a little loud sometimes, but personally it didn't bother us. The hammock was a nice touch and there were places to dry your beach clothes. Will stay here again.

I hate to give a bad review and rarely do so but we only ended up staying here for 3 nights out of 9 due to the noise. The club next door (we think?) was playing music so loud it sounded as if it was in the room until 5am the 3 nights we stayed. We like to party as much as anyone else but not being able to sleep until after 5am every night is just too much. We tried to get a refund for the remaining 6 nights we didn’t stay and they refused to refund, which is something most places would gladly do. I would not recommend staying here, but if you do make sure to get only one night to try it out because you will not be refunded if you decide it’s much too loud. They did provide ear plugs but those don’t particularly help when the bed is shaking from the music, and they did not muffle the noise much either. It also wasn’t the best when they justified their reason to not give a refund as being because the noise wasn’t “from the hotel directly” and then subsequently blamed Expedia, although Expedia attempted at getting our refund several times and in the final attempt gave us a small credit on our account (Expedia did, not the hotel).

Not a bad place to stay, it is what it is… cheap, rooms were clean & safe. It was a bit loud at night from the neighboring bar. My BIGGEST issue was that they wanted $200 to watch our bags after checkout while we went to Walmart (8 minutes away). After spending 2 nights there, this felt excessive & greedy. Won’t be coming back, too many other/ better options.

READ BEFORE YOUR PURCHASE OF ROOM

Hotel appears run down on the outside the inside is not so bad it is clean the cleaning lady is phenomenal does a great job if you are a smoker you will not be able to get outside of the hotel to smoke after 2:00 a.m. as they use a padlock to lock you inside if there is an emergency I guess you just have to scream until someone comes to open the gate not sure they keep your driver's license if this is your only form of identification I suggest not staying at this hotel now this could be other hotels I'm not sure.
The room was clean the bedding was clean the only thing that I really didn't like about this hotel I would have to say that they lock that gate and if you leave the room and your gone more than 15 minutes they will turn your air conditioner off from the breaker box in the office so when you come back it will be extremely hot. There is also a $600 peso fee if you lose the key to the safe in the room I suggest not putting anything in there and make sure when you check in to inform them that you do not want it you do not want the key you do not want to use the safe. Other than that the staff was friendly and there's some really good places to eat a few steps from the hotel. There's a major club less than a block away I didn't hear them myself once in my room but other reviews say the noise is bad I had no problem with it myself. I don't recommend taking any animals or children if you plan on staying more than two or three nights.

The hotel and staff were great. However, on the corner of the street was this open air nightclub that played loud terrible techno music until 3 or 4 am in the morning. Even with ear plugs we couldn’t drown out the noise. We didn’t sleep for the entire week we were in Playa del Carmen. If you want some sleep I would recommend staying somewhere else far away from that location.

good location but night club noise at night

nice place, as in the pictures, clean, nice courtyard, good location. horrendous noise at night from a near by night club. it would be 9/10 for me w/o the club noise but you just can't sleep until 2-3 a.m. in the current format.

I have stayed here many times. It’s convenient, close to the ADO station. I feel safe here. Its close enough to all you would want in PDC yet feels quiet. The place is not a fancy hotel but it’s perfect to get a local feel. I live part time in Mexico and this is my go to place when I need to stop in PDC.

Amazing hotel

Amazing , cost effective , boutique, local hotel near the famous avenue. All needs including air condition, safe etc. can be found in the room. Italian owner was very friendly and explain about all attractions. Instead of tasting different mix of food of city's plurality of restaurants and cafes, it is meaningless to have the meals at the same hotel. Holbox is one of my favourite islands worth seeing. I will come back for Holbox. So cosy, friendly and tropical island within 2 hr distance by a rental car.

It was my third stay in mexico. The best hotel I have seen so far. Wifi works just perfect, you dont need to go to lobby for it, the room is just amazing, sparkling clean with safe in it.Also the little patio outside gives just perfect touch of mexican wibe. Just love it. Also the stuff were great. Location is perfect too, one block down and you reach the beach and if you feel hungry there is some restaurants accross the street.By the way the main ADO bus station is 1,5 block away too.

Central location, cozy, friendly stuff. Overall ok

Overall, my stay was pleasant. The stuff is exceptionally friendly and helpful, happy to explain everything about the town and recommend activities. The location is central, just a few minutes by foot from the ADO station. My bed was very comfortable, and each room has a little balcony facing the courtyard, with a hammock. That was really great.

However, there were some cons that need to be mentioned:
1. The central location means it can get noisy at night. This is not the hotel's fault, of course, but be aware that just a block away there is a very loud rooftop club, that plays loud music to the very late hours of the night.
2. Unlike other hotels in Mexico, there is no place to get purified water. You can ask the stuff at breakfast to do it for you, and they probably will but not with a smile.
3. Breakfast itself: it is, as the stuff put it, a continental breakfast. You get coffee, a fresh pastry with butter and jam, and that's mostly it. No vegetables, or even fruit. They do offer yogurt and a freshly squeezed lime juice, but you can't even toast the pastry, not to mention getting eggs. More than one morning I found myself completing my breakfast somewhere else.
4. As in a lot of places in Mexico, the shower has only an American-style, unadjustable shower head. I personally hate that.

Property is located next to night venues, so noise is a problem. Not for anyone with light sleep or with babies. Rooms are small palapas, so not fully sealed and this contributes to mosquitos and noise contamination. Some of the staff is friendly. Parking is limited to about 6/7 vehicles. But located a few blocks from 5th Ave and the ferry station. I used it as a layover option, but ended up moving to another hotel due to noise.

Great spot!

Lovely little hotel, with kind and helpful staff in an excellent location. We walked everywhere and found everything we could possible want or need. One thing to keep in mind: Saturday nights have a pretty loud party at the bar next door which definitely kept us up a bit (which ended around 4am), but to be expected when you’re in that area. We just remembered when WE would’ve been the ones at that party instead of trying to sleep at 11pm :)
We would stay there again, as everything else was great.

Nice little budget hotel

It was a good hotel for the convenience. Central downtown area, super close proximity to the beach. The continental breakfast wasn’t great- just two types of dry cereal and a bun. When we first checked in we were given the room at the top of the stairs, right above the concierge- that was the worst room, it was sooo loud we couldn’t sleep all night and could hear everyone coming up the stairs and everyone talking in the office and slamming the gate. We requested they switch our room and they were very accommodating. Overall, good staff and good central location- great for the price.

Hotel is perfectly located, close to the beach and main shopping/restaurant area. Rooms are basic but comfortable and always clean. They all have a little private “courtyard” in front with a hammock which is a very nice touch. Overall a great experience, the only downside is breakfast which is really basic of basic coffee, bread and sometimes yogurt. Fruit could be a nice addition specially in a country where produce and labor are inexpensive.

This hotel was nice and clean. I really enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. There isn't a huge variety for breakfast, but what they have is really nice, including organic yogurt and freshly made juice.The pastries are yummy too. This property is super close the beach, like a five-minute walk down the road, which is great. Whenever I forgot my water bottle or sunglasses, I just left my stuff with my boyfriend, walked back up to the hotel, grabbed it, and came back down. The staff are really, really good as well. Everyone was smiley and friendly, offering recommendations for good places to go for walk or go to eat dinner. The front desk man even came up in the middle of the night to help us with a plumbing issue one night. It was a great stay for a great price and if I come back to Playa del Carmen, I plan on staying here again. Thanks to the people at Barrio Latino Hotel! Excellent hotel!
