Santa Cecilia Hotel

What guests think

Santa Cecilia Hotel earns praise for its friendly, attentive staff, very clean rooms, and a quiet, safe neighborhood that is walkable to the center, making it a comfortable base slightly outside the busiest areas of Oaxaca.

Multiple guests note limited or no parking and some noise from thin walls, metal stairs, and nearby animals. Several reviews mention small rooms and occasional maintenance issues with showers, water temperature or pressure, or bathroom odors. Simple rooftop breakfasts and morning coffee or pastries are appreciated, though a few guests found dining options limited or unclear. Overall, expect strong value and a relaxed, boutique feel.

Family of 5 adults. Very clean. Nice aesthetic. Love the quiet neighborhood. Good cafes and restaurants nearby and the walk into the center of town every day is one of the best parts of the experience. Helpful staff. Rooftop deck simple and nice, good place for quick coffee/pastry/eggs. There are issues with hot/cold water and sewage smells that the hotel is struggling with. Recommend with the knowledge that this is part of traveling in Mexico.

Wonderful clean hotel, great common area with hammocks or a table if you feel like getting out of the room for a beer or two. Great location, walkable to centro but still quiet. The hosts were great and friendly and a coffee, fruit and a bakery item for a quick snack as you leave to explore the city is a great touch!

The aesthetic of the property was beautiful! Dining options and a small bodega were walking distance. Parking spots are available outside the hotel or 2 spots in the garage are available. I’d definitely stay here again.

Arranged a 3.30am taxi so I could get to airport on time and the security at the hotel is excellent. Definitely in my to top 5 hotels of all time.

Location is great; close to an excellent panaderia. The regular rooms are rather small and therefore lacking in furniture but this is expected for a colonial style building. There is a restaurant on the top floor which is useful in a pinch for breakfast. We took advantage of a Monte Alban etc. tour which was very good (4 out of 5). There was someone there to man the front door at all times, so security was excellent. There was also some pan dulce for some mornings in the lobby. This location is quieter than Centro but the morning and evening rush hours are very busy in the street. Excellent place to start your walking tour of the city!

I really do like this hotel! The staff was always very polite & helpful. Rooms have a nice layout. Xochimilco, the neighborhood, it a great choice! A short walk to Reforma & a decent walk to Centro. Close, but out of the potential crowds. Bakeries and cafes nearby help in the early mornings as you start your day. That said, I must share that if you are a light sleeper, have ear plugs. The doors/windows are thin. There's an opening to bathrooms walls high up to outside, so.. You will hear everything. Cleaning crews, guests arriving/departing, conversations, etc. I slept with my ear buds most of the mornings I'd sleep past 6-7am. I don't want to fault the hotel for this, just a heads up. Beyond that, good spot.
