I've stayed in a lot of hostels in my time, and this one is by far my favorite. Staying here is more about close knit and relaxed living with a group of other travelers/. Friends than your average anonymous party hostel stay. It's a 2 minute walk to the market, and maybe five to the Zocalo, and the Real de... More

Where do I start? Well this hostel was one of my favourite hostels in Central America. The kind of place where you plan for 2 nights and end up staying at least a week! They have a great set up which makes it feel like a home away from home. There aren't many hostels about where you can walk in... More

Iguana Hostel is a familiar space, where we share good momenstos. Everyone I know who went through this place were longer than predicted ... is full of good energy .... loved it ... thank you for your affection and for your amazing breackfast.

The Iguana hostel is by far the best hostel you will find in San Cristobal de las Casas. Located in the charismatic Barrio del Cerrillo, right by the central market, the mercado de artesanias (local crafts), the town center and the pedestrian streets, the hostel is comfortable and affordable. Rudy will make you feel at home right away and will... More

For us one of the best hostels with the friendliest staff & guests at our journey. I will never forget these few days i stayed there. The breakfast was also very good. Best wishes, Daniel & Steffi from germany :)

They even made sure I got it before I needed it to travel. I know not everyone makes a... More

I really enjoyed my time spent in Iguana Hostel. It was really easy to meet people and socialise on the veranda area and I think thats important when travelling on your own. There were always chances to party at night but if you need sleep it is quiet too. The hostel is close to the markets and just a few... More

One of the best relaxing places around Mexico, and probably around the world too! I stayed there for a long time and while travelling around I was dragged back there multiple times...and I was not the only one, what got me the feeling of meeting sort of a second family every time I got there. I've been there during empty... More

Spent 4 or 5 days at the iguana (not to sure, lots of tequila was involved!). I had great time there, the owner is a sweet man, very happy and freindly! During my time there I celebrated my boyfriend Bday AND my friend Bday the following one! Great atmospher, we enjoyed diner party with all the other guests and staffs.... More
