Hotel Casa Kabii

10/10 Excellent

"It is a hotel located in downtown Oaxaca. The room was spacious and comfortable. Staff was kind and helpful. I like the idea of having a kitchenette with the free fruit, coffee/tea, and pastries. They also provide you with free bottles of water. Everything was sparkling clean."

Grand Fiesta Americana Oaxaca

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Grand Fiest Americana Oxaca hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Oaxaca. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the warm welcome, beautiful surroundings, and exceptional service. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating, always making us feel comfortable and well cared for. Every detail of our stay was handled with genuine hospitality, and their kindness made our experience especially memorable. The hotel itself is beautiful, peaceful, and welcoming, and the location made it easy for us to enjoy our time in Oaxaca. We truly appreciated the wonderful service and the care shown by the entire team. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable and memorable. We would be very happy to return and would gladly recommend this hotel to family and friends."

Casa De Sierra Azul

8/10 Good

"It is a beautiful property and the staff is amazing and kind. The location is great as well. Just be prepared to not bring any outside food or drinks in the common area. You have to take that straight to your room. The person who runs the place chimed into our conversation about why we can’t have outside food or drinks. I thought that was a little rude. So make sure any street food gets eaten before you go to your hotel. Besides that the staff is what makes the hotel stay great. I probably won’t stay there again and find another hotel where I have a little bit more flexibility."

Luuna de Jade

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was fantastic, the property is in an excellent location for exploring Oaxaca City without a car. Even though our room was great, I should point out that the King Bed was too short for someone over 6' 2" tall. I would also like to see a microwave oven and cream for the espresso coffee. Despite these caveats, the room was excellent and the bed comfortable. My wife loves the shower and the water pressure was outstanding...... Tacos Roy is only a few steps away from the front door. Panaderia La Luna has good pan dulces and pastries for a low price. Ixu Cat Cafe is 3 blocks East if you love kitties..... Service is outstanding and they really go an extra mile to make your stay comfortable!"

Hotel Victoria Oaxaca

8/10 Good

"El hotel mantiene su status entre los hoteles más únicos y distintivos en Oaxaca ciudad. Su edificio principal con el bar y sus equipales, el restaurante abajo y más abajo el area de la alberca siguen al 100%. El problema comenzó la semana pasada cuando nos dieron una habitación cumplidora en el edificio principal para en la segunda noche decirnos que nos van a cambiar de habitación porque la nuestra la van a remodelar (????) El lavabo de la nueva habitación huele a caño. Al siguiente día pedimos cambio de habitación y nos mandan a una horrible habitación del edificio redondo (quién fregados diseñó eso?) Las escaleras con alfombras raidas. Me hospedé en el Hotel Victoria en los setentas cuando de niño me llevó mi abuela a conocer Oaxaca. Era el mejor o de los mejores hoteles en Oaxaca ciudad. Al día de hoy mantiene su identidad, el servicio es impecable, pero lamentablemente el mantenimiento se nota decadente. Ya hay Quinta Real e infinidad de hoteles "boutique", aunque yo preferiría su concepto siempre, nomás pónganse las pilas. Otra cosa, no hay necesidad de música en vivo a todo volumen cuando desayunas en El Tule. La vista es super bonita, tranquila. Para qué poner a unos señores cantando con bocinas a alto volumen? Por eso justamente no volvimos a desayunar ahí. El bar 100/100. Todo excelente."
