Gorgeous old hacienda in San Cristóbal de las Casas. A must see!
Sorry. Did not like. The positive things: Hotel LOOKS beautiful from the outside yes, its all very antique and almost from another time. The have peacocks walking around, looks cool. That's about it. The Negative thing: The have saints and crosses everywhere!! every single room & every single spot has some religious thing. Made me SUPER uncomfortable. The rooms are super cold. Hot water takes a long time to come in. Beds are hard. Food is mediocre. The peacocks are squawking at 7am in the morning. Sound travels a lot between the walls and halls so you hear EVERYTHING! NOTHING for the kids to do. Did not like at all. Never again!
This hotel has way to many saints and weird things everywhere. Did not like. Food in my opinion is bad. And there is nothing for the kids to do. Sound travels a lot, so its a rude awakening EVERY morning. Rooms are cold. NOT for me. Did not like.
Nice place overall, far from town but we wanted that. For the cheap rates, they give you rooms in the old house which is charming but colder (and they can't light warming fires anymore due to a new law).
We were there to attend a wedding and the staff was very helpful. I must say the resturant (Monica) and desk (Mauricio) staff were the friendliest I have seen in quite a while. They went out of their way to make our eating and room experience a pleasure. I especially enjoyed the fireplace in the room and resturant. Our friends involved many English speaking persons and the staff put forth extra effort to accomodate them. Taxis were plentiful. The gardens were beautiful including the 2 peacocks. Definately will go back.
[...]This hotel is NOT in the historic center of San Cristobal de las Casas but outside and beyond walking distance. To enjoy time in the city center, you have to drive and fight for a public parking space or pay for a taxi ride. We did the latter to reduce stress.
The staff were very pleasant but the restaurant was closed and it is located a mile from the center of town. Only 25 or 30 pesos but too far to walk. Fine if you have a car and there is offstreet packing. The rooms and garden were pleasant. The fires in the room were a nice touch. We were able to have breakfast at a simple cafe nextdoor. There was no overnight staff cover. When we wanted to make restaurant or activity reservations we could use the hotel phone or computer but there was no concierge to speak of. This would be difficult for someone who could not speak Spanish.
