Beautiful hotel with in walking distance from town, excellent service from front desk staff, bar staff and cleaning ladies, i would definitely recommend!
The hotel was exceptional and the staff were always welcoming and respectful. Definitely recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to San Cristobal de las Casas!
I had such an amazing experience staying at this hotel. The place is super clean, with a gorgeous views, great french architecture, food is delicious and the employees are always in the best attitude to help in anything.
It seriosuly exceeded my expectations and is a must go when staying in San Cristobal
This was such a nice surprise, the hotel is a five star property at the level of a big city luxury hotel!!! The service starting at check in with Carlos and a nice glass of bubbly, restaurant is superb and every single one of the staff is top notch! Kudos to Jesus in breakfast and Luis at lunch!! Loved it here and will for sure come back!!
This a new and 5 star quality boutique hotel that can easily be compared to St Regis or Ritz Carlton! We stayed here for 5days and had a wonderful time as a family! During our stay here in July 2025, we felt we were the only guests in this hotel which felt strange. We also ate at their restaurant where we saw very few guests but were not staying in the hotel. All the staff from rest, bar, front desk and housekeepers were professional, courteous, and kind.
The only drawbacks to this hotel was location. It was a distance away from the plaza and Centro. Uber doesn't work in Chiapas so hailing a taxi takes time from the hotel. The solution, befriend a local taxi driver and text them when you want them to pick you up.
A few suggestions to even elevate this hotel: 1) have a heated pool (no other luxury hotel in San Cris has a pool). There is a garden courtyard where a pool can fit on one side of the walkway. 2) have hair dryers in the bathrooms. Strange that a lux hotel didn't have one (or is it only upon request?).
Es un hotel con muy buenos detalles tanto en su arquitectura como en sus atenciones, muy elegante y acogedor a la vez, fui con mi familia y todos disfrutamos nuestra estancia.
Excelente hotel, en un lugar muy tranquilo y unas cuadras del andador de Guadalupe, restaurantes, bares y tiendas todo muy a la mano, las habitaciones son más que excepcionales, climatizadas, muy amplias y de buen gusto.
El hotel es super bonito, los empleados amables, están pendientes, todo muy limpio nos fuimos muy temprano y nos ayudaron a encontrar taxi, lo recomiendo, solo estoy esperando que me liberen los 1500 del deposito.
