“Could do much better”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while visiting this mysterious town where time seems to have stopped in the early 20th century. The hotel has a lot of potential, but the rooms are shabby, the bathrooms are falling apart, they don't have grounded outlets, bad linens, etc. The restaurant was so-so and I really woulnd't recommend this hotel to a friend. However, there are slim pickings in this town, but we saw one called "1810" that looked much, much better.

Room Tip: Stay away from the new wing they are currently building!

“near to downtown in Cuetzalan”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

I sshare what Emilio Merx is saying about the hotel, nice big rooms, a lot of patios and from the swimming pool area you have in the morning the view on the clouds which are stiil in the lower valleys. And try the breakfast, we got with our omelet very delicous beans and salsa (if you like it spicy)

Everything is in walking distance nad they have a nearby place for cars.

Room Tip: Take a room near the swimming pool and ypou hear nothing, but birds in the morning

“Nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 July 2010
1
person found this review helpful

I was with my wife and three teenage children in early July 2010. It is a comfortable hotel with architecture typical of the town. The service is good and pool is very nice . It's in the center of town, so that we can neglect the car. The cost of lodging ($ 55 double room engaged in the hotel) is fair. My only comment is to the rooms, which are small and dark.

“Perfect Location for Cuetzalan”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2009

Recently stayed here renting 4 rooms in total. Excellent location for walking to the central square and other parts of Cuetzalan. Very clean rooms and ample space - everything in working order. If you do have issues sleeping at night with noise, then do ask for an interior room as the street side rooms can be noisy. Excellent demonstration of local traditional dance on Saturday night in the courtyard. Best tlayoyos in town I think! Definitely a top option for Cuetzalan.

“Nice place to stay if you prefer Cuetzalan downtown”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 August 2007

When traveling to Cuetzalan, I usually sleep at the Villas Cuetzalan hotel, which I have already reviewed for tripadvisor. This time, however, I wanted to save some pesos and give me the chance to check another hotel in the area, so we went to the Posada Cuetzalan.
The biggest advantages of this property is location and price. It is located right at downtown and I paid half the amount I pay at the Villas Cuetzalan --595 pesos (about 55 dollars) for a triple room versus 1350 pesos (about 120 dollars) for a cabana that includes a Continental breakfast and wood for the fireplace.
The price at the Posada is even lower for a double room (510 pesos, about 45 dollars) or a single room (380 pesos, about 32 dollars), tax included. No breakfast included, but the place has a nice restaurant. The only problem at the restaurant are vendors, who enter freely, as in most restaurants in town. We had five of them during breakfast, mostly old people. We did not buy anything, but gave them some coins.
Of course, the room at Posada was smaller than the cabana at Villas Cuetzalan, but considering the price/size ratio it is not that bad, since the room was about about 30% smaller.
We were not in the middle of trees and we did not have a fireplace as in Villas, but it was not that cold in the middle of the summer and my daughter had the chance to see TV (there are no TV sets at Villas). The street below our room was not noisy and everything is steps away. If you come to Cuetzalan by bus, this is an excellent option.
The furniture in Posada is a little old, but everything is clean. We saw more foreigners than locals in the property.
I think the photographs I took can show better how this hotel is a real bargain, especially if you consider that it has a parking lot one block away, has cable TV and two small pools.

  • Liked — Price and location
  • Disliked — Too many vendors entering to the restaurant
