I had a wonderful few days at Hotel Julamis and would recommend it highly to anyone. As other reviews indicate, it's more like an intimate bed and breakfast - and I felt more like Mel's house guest than a paying customer. Mel was extremely accommodating, available, and offered some great tips about exploring Merida (along with very exact directions!). I... more

Well I don't know what happened with the backpackers below but I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hotel Julamis. I was there a full week and found Mel to be a prince of a fellow who even went so far as to accompany me to a property I was considering buying. The hotel has some outstanding rooms and the ambience... more

Our family was staying in March for five days in Merida. We choosed Julamis because it looked clean, nice and seemed to have a more personal service. And that was the way it was! Its a traditional house, that has kept his special atmosphere. You will find many nice and arty accessoires around. Just beautiful. What we liked the most... more

Located in Centro Merida, Hotel Julamis is close to everything you want to visit in this wonderful Spanish Colonial city yet off the tourist track so that you get a real feel for the city and its people. From the street the hotel is unassuming with a corner front door and no sign. Knock and Mel will usher you inside... more

My wife and I had the pleasure of visiting Merida for 3 weeks (Feb 27 - Mar 19 2008). We decided to try the Hotel Julamis, based on some recommendations from another website. We are so glad we stayed here. The hotel is nice and small, exactly what we were looking for. It looks exactly like the pictures posted here.... more

Hotel Julamis was a steal of a deal. The hotel is centrally located and the owners went above and beyond the call of duty to make us feel welcome and to assist us in getting around Merida and the surrounding area. The best part is the breakfast. I highly recommend this property and am sure I will return. more

My... more

As other reviewers have said, this is a nice property for the price (though the website photos are well worked and could be a bit misleading). It is in a central location and overall a pleasant place. We were however a bit disappointed in our interactions with the owner whose concerned parent type behavior that another reviewer has commented on... more

We recently returned from an amazing vacation in the Yucatan Peninsula. Our plan was to drive to Merida for a colonial Mexian city experience upon arrival in Cancun, but to make a long story short, we arrived in Merida the next day. Mel, the owner, had put up a sign and waited up for us the night before! When we... more
