The rooms are bare yet comfortable, the kitchen is completely decked out, the net is fast, the courtyard is a good place to meet other travelers but the service is the best you could ask for. My girlfriend and I left early one morning for Palenque, half way there we noticed that we had forgotten our camera bag back in... More

But the best of this hostel was... More

El Hostalito is everything you could want from a hostel - a fantastic kitchen, a range of rooms and enough shared bathrooms so you never have to wait, brilliant selection of games/books, free internet, a cosy lounge with fireplace and sofas and a unique selling point - the bikes! Unfortunately, we only had one night in San Cristobal, but we... More

Amazing place! Cozy and excellent atmosphere. It really makes you feel like being on a family home. Clean and funny place, with good ambient and good food. The owner (Joaquin) is really a friendly and excellent guy. Very good quality/price relation! Definitively my favorite place in San Cristobal! A must see. You must go there! Beautiful place!!

There are two spacious common areas with a dining room and a tv/reading room where you'll find a diverse selection of movies, boardgames and books, as... More

This place has a lot of interior charme and is decorated with lots of hearth by its German owner. This was also the reason why choose this place for our stay in San Cristobal de las Casas. As we entered our private room, we had first to ask for a new blanket because they forget to change it since their... More

El Hostalito is very central, just off the main street. It is run by two very friendly, welcoming people. The whole place has a very homely feel to it, with a great kitchen and lovely living space. Highly recommend this hostel to anyone wishing to stay in San Cristobal...by far the best hostel we have stayed in so far!
