Who would not be seduced by Casa Mexilio's labyrinth, its maze of terrasses, staircases, beauty? Well appointed rooms, clean, good beds, hot water, good towels, great breakfast, nice gardens, cool pool. Good mercado a block away. And possibly the most atmospheric bar in North America, with music to match. So far the best margaritas I've had in Mexico, but I... More

Beautiful, beautiful hotel with history, I stayed Motel Marionetas before I stayed this hotel because of review I read Trip advisor, Casa Mexillo is much more nicer. Hotel staff are so kind and very good service, quiet and unique rooms plus just so beautiful. Breakfast is also quite nice, fresh fruits juice and eggs of your choice. Location is very... More

I had visited Casa Mexilio many times but this was my first time to stay, and I was not disappointed. The interior features inviting paths and stairways leading to secluded rooms on various levels, many with their own terraces. The vegetation is lush, with a lagoon-like pool, giving the place a feel that is at once tropical jungle, stately old... More

A most unique experience. We were sad to leave when we did and would definitely recommend Casa Mexilio. Anyone with an interest in history, antiques, gorgeous tile floors and a layout that would impress MC Esher, should not hesitate to stay here. Sure, you will get sweaty going up and down the many stairs, but Merida is sweaty anyway so... More

This is my second time in Merida and Casa Mexilio. I booked Casa Mexilio’s room for 14 days as I wanted to get to know Merida on its terms rather than my time constraints. Casa Mexilio’s location in Centro is very central as it’s only a few blocks from the main square. There is a doctor nearby, ½ block away,... More

I have read all the reviews contained in this site about Casa Mexilio and can understand some of the criticisms leveled at this property. Firstly, let me warn those people who like MacDonald's, Cancun hotels with all inclusive services, drinking beer by the pool, watching continuous TV for entertainment, etc., etc., in my time you were called The Ugly Americans,...

On the plus side, wonderful, unique house in quiet setting, full of quirky charm. However, some of those quirks could turn into negatives for some. As other reviews mentioned, need degree in engineering to work out how to open doors (not amusing late at night), take torch for the "period lighting" if needing to read maps, guidebooks etc. Charming local...

I think the owners of this establishment have confused eccentricity with indifference. After having a struggle to even get in the place when we arrived (due to the fact no one was around), we were then told the room we'd booked was unavailable due to it "needing some work" (although this didn't prevent it from being occupied by another couple...

We stayed here and did not regret the hotel which is beautiful and feels much smaller than it really is. Staying here is like going back in time, but with all the mod cons. We stayed in a less expensive ground floor room; excellent value, but dark and a bit closed in. We would definitely pay more for a brighter... More

I spent 5 days at Casa Mexilio in June 2010 as part of a business trip to Merida. This was my second visit to the city and my second stay at this hotel (i had stayed there previously 5 years ago). I enjoyed my first stay and that convinced me to look past some of the more negative TA reports;... More
