HOLT's Hotel De Mi Independencia

Yes, staff were very kind and helpful when they are on the property. This is more like a short term apartment. There is time security from 7 to 7.

Overall a 4/5 for the price. The hotel is cute (6 rooms) and centrally located (nice neighbourhood), with all rooms inward facing and quieter than expected (though our room was beside a loud water heater). Wifi, air conditioning and breakfast were exceptional! Rooms and bathrooms are a little small in size. The site was secure (including night door staff) and included locked luggage storage for arrival/departure days, but without service staff later in the day (but quick to respond online) which can be frustrating if looking for recommendations or room service. It seemed a little overpriced for what we received, but it was during the lead up to Dia de los Muertos.

Holt está buenísimo… encantada con la habitación y hotel en general super limpio, acogedor, hermoso su patio interior, el área de desayuno hermoso y desayuno completo delicioso. Gisela fue muy amable. Nos coordinó una taxi para que nos buscara de madrugada. El área tan cerca de plazas, restaurantes y área de comparas. Tuvimos la oportunidad de ir al festival y todo quedaba caminado cerca. Definitivamente, volvería a quedarme. Quedé enamorada del hotel y de Oaxaca.

Wonderful hotel with a beautiful courtyard. Very friendly service and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious with lots of fresh fruit, granola and warm dishes. Great coffee!

We loved our stay at Holt. The property is so beautiful and the courtyard was so serene! I enjoyed my morning cups of coffee there. The staff were super friendly, attentive and very professional. Daily breakfast was delightful! The key code options to access the property and our room was convenient. Unfortunately the rooftop was inaccessible during our stay which was a little disappointing as we were looking forward to exploring that, and we also had some issues activating the main door key code manually, but we were able to use the app for this so that was super helpful! Would definitely stay here again, everything was an easy walk from Holt. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel de mi indepencia. The room was very comfortable and stylish, breakfast was great, and we loved the location and communal patio. Our room had no windows, but good air conditioning - this meant it was also nice and quiet. The hot tub was also a lovely extra. The hotel is contact free, and we didn’t have very good communication from them after we asked via WhatsApp and email about a few things. But once we had spoken to the on-site staff, we had the answers we wanted (mostly!).

Excelente ubicación y muy bonitas instalaciones

Walking distance to many restaurants and shops, the staff was helpful. The place looks nice with many spots to hang out. Breakfast was good, hot and ready sometimes earlier than advertised.

First time in Oaxaca and HOLT was conveniently close to everything. Really cute outside and inside. They have self-check-in and check-out services, so you don't have to deal with people. I like that but there is also staff there to help with morning breakfast, and snacks, and someone guarding the front door. Overall really nice, quiet, and safe.

Our room was beautiful. The hotel is in a great location and has excellent facilities. The complimentary breakfast exceeded our expectations. Beautiful courtyard and a great hot tub. The HOLT team is always responsive. We had a great time. We will be back the next time we come to Oaxaca.

Lo positivo: El hotel es muy limpio y tiene una decoración bonita y moderna. Nos tocó una habitación renovada con un baño amplio y cómodo. El internet funcionaba muy bien durante toda nuestra estancia. Destacamos especialmente la atención de Elizabeth, quien fue muy amable, servicial y atenta. Ella fue lo mejor de nuestra experiencia. Lo negativo: Desafortunadamente, desde antes de llegar tuvimos un muy mal rato. Nos informaron que el pago no había pasado, aunque al revisar con nuestro banco todo estaba en orden. Intentamos pagar mediante su enlace en línea, pero su plataforma simplemente no funcionaba correctamente; permitía guardar los datos de la tarjeta pero no enviarlos (no había opción de “submit”). Al llegar, no hay recepción física y todo se hace por teléfono o internet, lo cual no fue nada eficiente. Además, el mensaje que recibimos fue bastante hostil, amenazando con cancelar la reservación si no pagábamos de inmediato. A pesar de estar dispuestos a pagar en persona, no aceptaban efectivo ni tenían terminal, lo cual es absurdo para un lugar que se presenta como hotel y no como Airbnb. Ya estando en el hotel, mientras hablábamos por teléfono con Fernanda, intentamos ingresar nuestra información de pago fácil unas 3 o 4 veces desde el celular, y aun así seguía sin funcionar. No ofrecieron alternativas ni mostraron flexibilidad, solo repetían las mismas instrucciones sin reconocer que el problema era de su plataforma. Cansado y frustrado, mi esposo decidió cancelar

Super pretty place. Comfy beds, very clean. They offered a great breakfast and afternoon snack. It’s a small 6 room boutique hotel. Lovely!

RUN AWAY! Hotel staff refused to let me in at midnight even though they only have six rooms and new exactly who I was. Their online check-in system was broken. The call-button on the outside door was not working either. Finally talked to an agent who then gave me the wrong code to the room. Once finally got in, They placed me in a room near a water pump so could not sleep. The next day, they were painting the common area, making guests sick with a chemical smell. Then they claimed I damaged the property and requested I vacate within 20min or pay $350. Great location and property have potential - but management is horrible. Worse hotel I ever stayed in - and I am a 200 hotels experience and gold rating on AirBnB.

Our stay was amazing. The staff in the hotel make you feel at home. They all are friendly, and the breakfast service is great. Our room was very comfortable, clean, and carefully decorated. I would stay here again.

The decoration was amazing and everything was spotless. I would stay here again.

Nuestra habitación estaba impecable y muy cómoda, el baño estaba muy bonito y además contaba con muchos extras. El internet funcionaba muy bien. Era algo muy importante para mí, ya que estuve trabajando durante mi estadía. Recomiendo ampliamente.

We had a truly unforgettable stay at Holt in Oaxaca. From the moment we arrived, the wonderful staff made us feel right at home. A special thank you to Isela and Gerardo, who went above and beyond to warmly welcome my mom when she arrived early. Despite check-in being later in the afternoon, they made her feel comfortable and even offered her breakfast, a thoughtful gesture we deeply appreciated. The property itself is beautiful, well-maintained, and full of character. Our room was spacious and peaceful, and we looked forward each morning to the delicious, healthy breakfast served with care and local flair. The location was perfect, a short and pleasant walk to the main square, with plenty of great places to eat nearby. Oaxaca felt safe, clean, and incredibly friendly, which made our experience even more enjoyable. To Isela, Gerardo, Carmen, Elizabeth, Bianca, Priscilla, and every member of the amazing team at Holt: thank you for your warmth, hospitality, and for making our stay so special. We also like to thank the customer service team on Holt Whatsapp who were always there communicating with me right away everytime i had questions - Fernanda, Paolo, Eduardo, Bianca, and Janeth. We will absolutely recommend Holt to friends and family, and we look forward to returning again soon!

Excelente ubicación y habitaciones super cómodas. El servicio brindado por el staff fue de lo mejor. La guía de lugares que me mandaron me fue muy util durante mi estadía. Recomiendo ampliamente.

This is a cross between a hotel and an Air BnB. It’s very cute. Room is nice and bathroom is charming and large. You check in and out on your own. Access codes are provided, but how they are used is less clear. If you have a request you contact the staff via text or email by a certain time of day. Confirmation of requests are prompt, but the service requested sometimes requires several tries. There is a continental breakfast, which begins at 8:30 so if you’re the type that wants to get an early start to the day, you’re on your own. However, if you do have breakfast, the courtyard is a very pleasant place to enjoy it. Overall, a very enjoyable stay, and good value, but don’t expect the services of a hotel.

Ótima localização para explorar Oaxaca. Funcionários atenciosos e solicitos. Quarto confortável e café da manhã saboroso.

No windows in the room. The place is perfectly fine. Nothing special. Good spot in a pinch.

Great attention at the property. The staff was always helpful.

The staff and property were great during our stay. The property was a great location to all the main local areas and within 10 minutes of walking to all places. The breakfast provided was delicious and plentiful. We felt incredibly safe and cozy at Holt. I would highly recommend and stay in future visits.

A perfect location to explore Oaxaca by foot

A great central location easy for walking around the amazing city, but still lovely and quiet.

Great location, nice place, friendly staff.

Cercano a los lugares importantes en el Centro de Oaxaca. Muy agradable y tranquilo.

Excelente y muy cómodo, la propiedad es muy pequeña, por lo que es muy tranquilo hospedarse ahí. El personal fue muy amable 6 el desayuno que se incluye muy bueno. La ubicación es excelente, definitivamente regresaremos.
