We booked Casa Mexicana after reading about the hotel in the Lonely Planet. We stayed there for 2 nights in September and had an excellent experience. Unlike some of the reviews here - the stuff was very helpful and nice. When we arrived they had a group there which occupied the second floor and, without us asking for it, they... more

If you like being glared at by the front desk, woken before dawn, and treated as if you are unwanted, stay here! Although beautiful, Hotel Mexicana was perhaps the least welcoming hotel I have ever visited. First impression was great--pretty gardens in the courtyard, but no where to sit to enjoy them--keep moving, stranger! The woman at the front desk... more

This hotel was great, from the moment we walked in we could tell it had a nice old charm about it whist being quite modern. We stayed in the new wing across the road and it was very peaceful. The rooms were clean and had everything that you would expect. The staff were very accomodating and allowed us to use... more

We looked all over San Cristobal after intensely disliking the B&B we had booked, and found Casa Mexicana after scoping out about 10 places that were more or less expensive. It has the perfect location near the centre of town, but very quiet. We stayed in the new section and had breakfast in the patio of the original building. All... more

Well located, close to the main plaza and with beautiful courtyards this hotel has two buildings, one across from the other. The main house has the reception and the restaurant but the rooms are not as nice as the rooms across the street. They are rather small and stuffy. The bathrooms are small and have no windows. The suites are... more

This is a lovely hotel: with beautiful courtyards and rooms which are perfectly adequate. But there are some problems: -the hotel staff is a little lugubrious, especially the people in the restaurant who stand over you as you finish eating. -the hotel is expensive for the city. One thing we learned in Mexico was that there is no apparent relationship... more

My family and I were very excited to stay at the Hotel Casa Mexicana due to its advertising and promotion. Although it is pretty inside, it reminded all of us of just another big hotel. It just doesn´t match up with the wonderful San Cristobal culture and architecture that we found as we explored about. The food was good but... more

We stayed at Casa Mexicana in late January. The Hotel has a great location, it is a beautifully remodelled building with 2 interior courtyards planted with tropical gardens. The rooms surround the courtyards and are simple, but nicely outfitted and filled our needs fine. The only negative is that the front desk and management seem oddly like they find the... more

I have just returned from San Cristobal de las Casas. I stayed at the Casa Mexicana for 6 nights during Christmas. Service was excellent. Restaurant served delicius meals. The inner court gardens create an oasis in a location very close to city historical center. I would very highly reccomend it. I had a very comfortable and quiet suite, at a... more
