A cosy mid-range hotel right in the heart of Oaxaca’s historical centre.

Along a cobbled street this colonial-style building is just two blocks from the bustling main square making it a convenient base for exploring Oaxaca.

Spread over three floors, find spacious, colourful rooms decorated with local crafts and elegant wrought iron furniture. The leafy courtyard is particularly inviting with a selection of tables and chairs nestled amongst tropical plants, perfect for relaxing in a shady spot. Breakfast is served in the ground floor restaurant which is also a popular place for lunch and dinner.
