Luuna de Jade

10/10 Excellent

"The “welcome” cocktail was a treat, a tasty introduction to mescal-based cocktails that are a Oaxacan specialty. Beautiful architecture and decor, and our room’s private terrace was an oasis of calm at the end of the day."

Hotel Trebol

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at Trébol was helpful and very friendly. Thanks to Carmen for helping with tour reservations. She was amazing. The hotel has a wonderful old world feel to it. We spent a lot of time relaxing in the lobby or in the courtyard. There is no elevator so be prepared to do some stair climbing. If you like the markets you’ll be happy to know that the hotel is across the street from two major markets filled with food venders, restaurants, and artisanal products. We spent hours in the markets. The breakfasts were very good. The hotel is very clean. It was quiet too. We had a wonderful 2 week stay at Trébol. I’ll stay there again when I return to Oaxaca."

Casa De Sierra Azul

10/10 Excellent

"BED AND BATHROOMS WERE CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE, OUTDOOR PATIO GARDEN AND SITTING AREAS WERE EXCEPTIONAL, THE LOCATION WAS CLOSE TO MUSEUMS, HISTORIC CHURCHES, RESTAURANTS, LOCAL MARKET AND ZOCALO! HOWEVER, IT IS A HISTORIC BUILDING ITSELF, BUILT IN THE EARLY 18TH CENTURY, AND OUR WATER SUPPLY WAS SHUT OFF FOR OUR LAST TWO NIGHTS OF SIX THERE, AND WE HAD TO MOVE TO ANOTHER ROOM! WHICH WAS NOT AS BIG BUT PLESANT ALSO."

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."

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."
