Friendly, clean hotel in a great location!

I found the staff at the front desk and the restaurant very friendly and knowledgeable about the local area and ready to answer questions. The rooms are small but very comfortable. And in some cases the rooms have an extra loft area that provides a nice space to read or relax.The staff cleaned the rooms right away. The location of the hotel is ideal. It is right next to the main plaza and easy walking distance to the local market and restaurants.

A most perfect

Loved the hotel, restaurant and all the staff. Pretty patio, lovely decor and ambiance, soft music. Quiet room in back was a little crowded, but there were 3 beds, so we used one for our suitcases. As others have said, blessings are VERY firm, and shower takes 7 min to heat up. Just plain wasteful and strange. Hope they can fix these 2 problems soon. We will were there for Day of the Deason and saw over task in businesses as we walked around, also took taxi to cemetery of see familes cleaning graves and decorating them with flowers. Glad we went.

Awful stay

We had to change room, because the carpet smelled so bad. The toilet wasn't working. Very small TV. Dark rooms. The breakers weren't working well and we had to wait a lot for the technician. This hotel was very expensive. Won't book again.

Hotel Posada El Paraisio

The hotel was lovely with a great location. The attached restaurant was good for breakfast, with didn't try any other meal. The peoe at the desk were friendly and helpful. My only complaint was the size of the room. We had a hard time fitting our two small suitcases in the room and having space to walk. The bed was a bit hard too.

Beautiful and clean hotel.

Everything was beautiful and very clean. The restaurant is nice and the food was good. The TV is super small. They close the hotel and turn all the lights off from the hallways at around 11pm. There is a man in charge of letting you in and out after that time, so it is no big deal.

Excellent location

Excellent location, good food and well price compare to other restaurants in town. A minus: It takes 7 minutes to get hot water, owners might consider to install a circulating pump that will provide hot water at any room right away. Also the insulation for noise is not good, we can clearly hear the conversations of the next door room and I assume that we can hear us to. A plus hotel offers security boxes in the rooms. Hotel doesn't have parking, you have to park your car on the street or in the public parking lot which is very close from the hotel.

Great hospitality

The hotel is very well located. My room was very comfortable, but other rooms were very small. The staff was very friendly and courteous, I enjoyed their hospitality. On December 31 we returned late from a trip, starving to dead, and although they were busy preparing for New Year celebration, they went out of the way to feed us a delicious sopa Azteca.

Service was great, it was a clean environment, the only thing that I have to say is that the bed was too small for a couple and the mattress was too hard, it was like sleeping on a piece of wood. Location is great, right in the middle of the historical center.

Es agradable su terraza, tiene muchas plantas, el cuarto es sencillo y chiquito, no tenía cable el aparato decía que no habían pagado el servicio y solo tenía canales de música habilitados, el wifi si llega pero le faltaba un poco más de intensidad y me dieron otra habitación diferente a la que había solicitado, me toco con una tasa de baño despegada que por poco me caigo sentado con todo y tasa, al cuarto que me toco se ve algo descuidado y es súper sencillo, como lo agarrábamos solo para dormir. En el cuarto que me dieron arriba se escuchaba como que se prendía un clima o un aparato en la noche, o como si alguien se meciera en alguna mecedora. Pero fuera de eso y no eres de esas personas exigentes pues para ir a dormir y tener un lugar a donde llegar cuando vas de visita a san Cristobal pues nada de eso no te molestará!!!
