“Would not stay there- stay at Hotel Chichen Itza for a few dollars more!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2009

people found this review helpful

I booked the room via email with "Peter". Their website says they take credit cards. We got there and it was conveniently not working. Asked where Peter was and they never heard of him. The place felt like it was abandoned. The rooms were horrible. No TV, beds were like sleeping on springs, the bathrooms were all moldy and paint peeling. The place was gross!

“Awesome Gardenbs & Pool”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 December 2008

This Chichen Itza Area Hotel is one of the most beautiful oasis near Chichen Itza. It is in walking distance of the new 7th wonder of the world. We decided that one of those one-day tours was overpriced and wasn't enough to see everything. Hotel Piramide Inn is competitively priced. We started by spending the evening, and ended up staying 3 days.

In the lush garden area surrounding Piramide Inn is an unrestored Mayan pyramid built at the same time of Chichen Itza. My son enjoyed the oversize pool also in the garden area.

The rooms are oversize and and each is decorated differently. Our room came in a pretty pastel finish different from the rooms beside us. The maids clean everywhere daily. You are greeted in the morning by sound of the birds. A nice centrally located place to stay. Convenience stores and restaurants are nearby.

By looking from the outside, you would not think such a colorful and fragrant garden and pool reside on the inside. Overall a very nice place to visit.. A memorable experience

  • Disliked — I can't think of anything I didn't like.

“Great Location For Visiting Chichen Itza”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 June 2008

people found this review helpful

I'm always puzzled by just what it is travelers expect for only fifty bucks. At The Piramide Inn it's money well spent.

Our room had the largest bathroom I've ever encountered short of mega-resorts. The A/C unit appeared to be brand new and functioned perfectly. The staff was friendly and the top floor photo gallery featuring the history of excavations at Chichen Itza is testament to their participation in the culture that brings people to this part of the world.

Although the antiquities of Mexico are national property, the grounds they sit on are quite often private land. Chichen itza is one of these examples. That means there are places to stay right outside of the park. But, they're inundated with tourist buses, buffets are set out to accommodate hundreds and the constant bustle is hardly relaxing. The Piramide Inn is the closest motel to the ruins in the small village of Piste'. Cut a right out of the front door and a nicely paved sidewalk will lead you directly to the parks entrance in a few minutes walk.. Very convenient.

I personally enjoy the lack of televisions and phones while rambling about the Yucatan. Besides that, the rooms are well appointed, spacious and an excellent bargain. There's even an unexcavated structure on the grounds, which incidentally, are well maintained and quiet nice.

Piste has a number of good restaurants, friendly locals and a new Oxxo convenience store for those of you intimidated by the tiendas. And if traveling by bus, it stops right next door to the hotel.

A perfect location for visiting the ruins.

  • Liked — Being in Piste rather than right outside of the park
  • Disliked — No Complaints

“OK for a one night stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 April 2008
1
person found this review helpful

My aunt lives in Merida (2 hours from Chichen) & she had a family friend recomend this place due to my budget. It was ok for a one night stay. Not fancy what so ever. VERY basic. If you're looking for a place to just set down your things. This place is all you need. Linens & room appeared clean, but either linens are old or lowest quality. Same goes for beds & bathroom either old or lowest quality. Paint job not great , looks last time they painted (whenever that was ) was a rush job & did not take great care for it to look even. No TV & no phone in my room (& kinda weird that camping is allowed , as I noticed that is rather normal at some other nearby "hotels"). Air conditioning unit (not central) leaked as well. Staff was friendly. Again, it served it's purpose for a one night stay.

Stayed March 2008

“Very nice garden but rooms need some repair”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 December 2007

people found this review helpful

Our family of five stayed in Pyramide Inn when visiting Chichen Itza. We got a big aparment with two hours. Room was spacious but there was some problems also: sink was leaking water to the floor, and it was not possible to lock backdoor. Sink was promised to be fixed next day but it never happened.

Garden was nice with birds and plants. Kids and I liked the pool afte hot days walking.

We were staying off-season so the place was allmost empty, restaurant and other services were closed but restaurants of the village were just nearby.

Rooms are facing road and truck fraffic was sometimes disturbing during when going to sleep.

Even with these problems I could someway recommend place as place was quite clean and pool ok. But check room before entereing.

  • Liked — Nice garden and pool
  • Disliked — Lack of internet and technical problems in the room
