This is our second stay at this wonderful old hotel in downtown Merida. It's hard to go wrong staying here- great location and lots of charm. The rooms have been upgraded since our first stay many years ago, and that was a treat. While most of the staff speak at least some English, it is best if you can speak some Spanish to make sure all goes smoothy. If you can stay on a Saturday night, you will be able to fullly particiipate in the weekly fiesta that happens in downtown Merida Saturday night and all day Sunday. Streets are closed to traffic, restaurants bring their chairs and tables onto the street, bands are playing everywhere, and there is a wonderful party atmosphere. On Sunday, the central plaza is filled with arts and crafts vendors. It is a "must do" experience in Merida, and this hotel is a good base from which to experience the fiesta.
