“Best place in puebla”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011

I needed a last min place to stay while in Puebla. This place is in the heart of Puebla, named after the famous character la china poblana. If you want a place rich in tradition great location and great food look no more. I would recommend this place to everyone. Stay in la china poblana suite you won't be disappointed!

“Little gem of a boutique hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

person found this review helpful

Located in the center of Puebla, right in front of the Iglesia de la compañia, if you are looking for the most charming small hotel in Puebla THIS IS THE PLACE.
An original colonial house steeped in mexican and local history it has been tastefully redone into a very a gorgeous and tranquil place to stay. The rooms are very spacious, all different one from another. Amenities are top notch and the service is outstanding. Everyone goes out of their way to make sure all your whims are catered for. The food is delicious and breakfast in the courtyard is one of the best in Puebla. Definitely THE HOTEL to rest your weary body after a day of discovery and wonder around Puebla.

“Delightful!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2011

There are many reasons this delightful Inn is ranked #1 in Puebla. The location is stellar, in the historic colonial district just a couple of blocks away from both the zocalo and the artisanal market streets. But it is the lovely accommodations and the attentive staff that make this place so magical. The renovated and converted hacienda has the traditional open air patio on the first floor that hosts an excellent restaurant. Upstairs the guest rooms open to a wide balcony. Our room, Talavera, had beautiful unique furniture and a modern bathroom. We loved our stay here!

“very luxury hotel in a beautiful old house”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2011

The hotel is an antique house with a big patio, full of plants and flowers. My really big room was beatifully decorated with antique furniture. The bathroom and shower were made of marble. Even the location is perfect - in he middle of old Puebla. I felt so good in my room I didn't want to go out.

“A superb boutique hotel with a fabulous restaurant and excellent service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 July 2011

I have visited the Casona de la China Poblana on numerous occasions and I think it's probably the best option for sleeping and dining in the city. It's location cannot be beat, the rooms are lovely, the service is truly outstanding and I find that the food is some of the city's best. Forget the Fonda de Santa Clara (the McDonald's of "poblana" cuisine) and head to the lovely interior courtyard of the China Poblana, located in an old building once home to Puebla's famous Catarina de San Juan, also known as the "China Poblana". They have a LA Cetto Cabernet at 180 pesos a bottle and it's wonderful, they have chalupas and other typical fare, but also more elaborated and "modern" moles to choose from. The salads are FANTASTIC -- no iceberg lettuce here! Check it out and you will see -- I know Mexico very well and live and work in the area.

Room Tip: There's a corner room with a lovely little balcony.
