Many times people talk about the character of places they stay. And that is what one seeks these days, provided the basics are met. However, Hostel de la Noria, although definitely offering character is missing the basics: the ability to have a good night’s sleep and a decent shower. Check-in: The person at the front desk had our details and... More

Clean enough and pleasant courtyard but the service was lacking and the beds are quite hard for the price. On the upside it is very close to the Zocalo and other points of interest in the city. More

I think it is very expensive for what they offer. I have no problems at all in the hotel, but the room was very small. Food was good. Nothing much to say about it. More

We stayed here for one night and it was the most welcome, beautiful hotel I had ever seen. This may have been in part because our hotel for the night before was cold, dirty and generally horrible.

We'd had a 8 hour coach journey to get there... More

After a business trip to Mexico City, my partner and I traveled to Oaxaca for a few days of R&R. He picked this hotel for its price and location very close to, but not on, the main square. It was an excellent choice. It was indeed a couple of blocks to the main square and within easy walking distance of... More

This is a beautiful restored house from the 20th century in the historical district. It has a good restaurant. The English speaking front desk manager on duty during the day was very helpful as well More
