When we arrived the entrance looked really promising but the rooms and restaurant were a disappointment. The rooms are basic and smelly. The breakfast is ok, but the location looks like a cheap group bus restaurant. It is great to have a swimmingpool in this area. However the beds around the swimmung pool are dated.

Villa Mercedes is an excellent choice for staying in Palenque. The setting is fantastic, as the hotel is in the jungle and very close to the ruins. Rooms are very comfortable, the pool is also very nice and a great place for relaxing after a long day. While the restaurant is not too fancy, it is convenient and carries a... More

We came from San Cristóbal de las Casas for an overnight stay and to see the ruins the next day. Hotel Villa Mercedes is in the jungle on the road to the ruins.

We spent 4 days in Hotel Villa Mercedes. We chose to stay there due to it being over new years and wanted to find the nicest place for our 4 days in Palenque. On first impression the place looks great, good rooms, and very nice pool. Unfortunately during our stay we realised that the service was absolutely horrible and the... More

The hotel is surprisingly touristic. There are not a lot of hotels in this area with a high standard and we looked for a two night stay in the Chiapas area to see the waterfalls. The pool was very nice, the food was horrible, dinner and breakfast. The rooms were not very appealing, we prefer modern hotel rooms. There is... More

The hotel is not close from the ruins but just inside the national park. Bedrooms are confortable and well equiped. The pool is nice and the restaurant average. The service is OK due to the Mexican standards. But It is a good option for a 2 days trip in the incredible ruins of Palenque and Yaaxchilan. I recommend it with... More

We enjoyed the comfortable jungle experience at Villa Mercedes Palenque. The hotel is a compound of 1 story buildings, so you walk out through the lush well-kept land scaping to your room and to the pool. We sat around the attractive pool with a glass of Mexican wine in the evening. The rooms are air conditioned and comfortable although the... More
