Casa Lucia is close to the heart of Mérida, with Parque Santa Lucia square on its doorstep and the Plaza Principal within 4 blocks.

Casa Lucia makes a great base for a day or two at leisure in this joyful city. Today’s hotel comprises a combination of historic Mérida townhouses, with modern additions, and it has held on to its sense of place. Décor very much leans towards the traditional with period furnishings and chandeliers setting the scene, although modern comforts remain a priority. Guest rooms with air-con, a garden with fountains and an outdoor pool makes this a handy refuge from the heat of a typical Yucatecan afternoon.

What our clients say

  • Highlights: A day trip we took to Xel-ha where we swam with dolphins. Also, the visits to the main piramids, such as Uxmal

    EP Royal Oak
  • Uxmal and Kabah: Much quieter than Chichen Itza but therefore more enjoyable.

    JF Bishops
  • Best experience: “Chichen Itza. That was the reason for making the trip and it lived up to its expectations. I also loved the snorkelling in Azumal. It was spectacular.

    TH Sweeden
  • Uxmal and Kabah archaeological sites, Mexico City Very enjoyable, despite the tropical rain storm. Our guide was excellent. 

    DC Nottingham
  • Most memorable experience: The live music in Merida, Izmal, Edzna and Campeche.

    JS Winscombe
  • Enjoyed the fact that the cenotes we visited were far from the tourist circuit and had not been turned into themed experiences.

Our Expert's Opinion

After dusk, downtown Mérida springs to life as café culture takes over, musicians stroll between tables and locals head out to relax. Casa Lucia is the perfect base to feel part of it all.
