What guests think

Hotel La Aldea del Halach Huinic sits amid lush jungle foliage where guests often spot howler monkeys and macaws, offering a tranquil, nature-immersed atmosphere that many appreciate, and it is conveniently located for visiting the nearby Palenque archaeological site.

Rooms are generally spacious and comfortable but simple, with frequent comments about no televisions and occasional mentions of missing mini fridges, noise, or hard mattresses. Service is often praised as friendly and helpful, though a few guests reported unwelcoming receptions or unprofessional behavior. Dining experiences vary, from tasty meals and poolside delivery to critiques of weak coffee, heat in the dining area, limited options, or high prices. A calm, low-fuss stay is the norm here.

This was our second visit to Palenque and we stayed here both times. My only complaint is the tile of the pool is visibly dirty missing a few tiles and it would be great if they had a mini fridge to keep water cold.

Nos tocaron días de descanso con lluvia, la habitación que nos tocó tenía filtraciones de agua, tuvieron que cambiarnos. El único restaurante con pocas opciones de comida. El jacuzzi muy bien pero con agua súper fría. El camino de acceso a las habitaciones muy resbaloso (quizá por la humedad del lugar). La ubicación esta muy bien, camino a las ruinas de Palenque.

Un bel endroit, on a l'impression d'être en pleine jungle. Le bruit des oiseaux, on a même pû voir des aras. Une belle piscine, un accès au billard. Les cocktails sont très bons, mais seraient encore meilleurs servis avec amabilité 😉 Un bel endroit où petits et grands pourront être comblés 😉

2-3 km from town, like being at an eco-lodge. Heliconias and other tropical plants and trees everywhere. Pool & area challenging to keep clear of falling leaves, etc. restaurant under Reno (stayed Sept 20-22) but room/pool service available. Food good, reasonably priced. Please change to paper or no straws. No TVs but that’s a plus for me.

Overall, given the location, I would not qualify that as a catastrophe. BUT… Although the rooms are pretty clean, they are not spotless! One of the beds had dirty sheets, that we did not use! The general condition of the property is very average. Don’t get me wrong! It’s Palenque, it’s thick forest, you have to expect humidity, smell, bugs, the whole ordeal! I can live with that! But it is very apparent that the property is not well maintained! It could be such a paradise, but the buildings are falling apart! I guess they are trying to do something about it cause the construction guys do grinder and skilsaw from 6am to 7pm… so say goodbye to the jungle vibe! And unfortunately I had good expectations for the restaurant, but it is very average and on the pricey side. Overall, all this wouldn’t matter if it were a 50-60$ CAD a night hotel but hold tous socks, it is a whopping 105$ CAD a night, which, let’s be honest, for the location, puts your expectations a bit higher! Staff is very sweet though, especially the ladies in the restaurant, but 80 pesos MX (6.50$ CAD) for a plate of frozen French fries is a big sad no-no for me, regardless of the beautiful smiles and manners of the waitresses! (And let’s not talk about the boring ambiance!!) Overall, sadly, I must say that 100$ CAD would be used somewhere else with much more bang for the buck!

The location was also perfect for what we had planned. We would have given this a five-star review, but the room was missing a refrigerator, which was a significant inconvenience during our stay. If a mini-fridge had been available, it would have been a perfect experience.

I highly recommend this resort! The pool is beautiful and the proximity to Palenque ruins can’t be beat. I have a couple recommendations for the resort. 1. Put a coffee maker in the room. This would allow us time to leisurely get dressed. Some of us need a coffee to go get coffee. 2. We had the big suite by the bathroom and it would be nice to have at least a love seat in the 2nd room. There are a bunch of unused furniture in the lobby. Just move 1 love seat to the suite so there is somewhere comfortable to sit in the room.

Although the hotel has a small store but only for emergencies because the prices are high. For sure I would go back.

Parking was good, easy. Beware lots of stairs. Room was great, A/C 2 - units worked great. The only issue we had was the restaurant on site. Happy they had one to offer BUT -- it was so hot, it was unbearable to eat. Looked like they have a breakfast room with A/C & doors that closed but it was not open?? We asked about a fan? They said no fans -- until we couldn't bear it any longer and had to leave to our room. Then they wanted to offer us a fan?? Had we known better we would have ordered room service to eat in our room. ( Jr. Suite above the pool) However we were the only people in the restaurant A -- it was just too dang hot ! and B -- the food was kinda terrible, lacking in all aspects, especially for the price. Could be a good place all around, but just lacking in certain areas.

Disappointed that my request was not honored. We were not able to check in 45 min early. Asked for “ground level room most important to have a hammock” but got 2nd story with no hammock. Our dinner the first night wasn’t great, including the service. They were busy catering to the tour bus people and probably did their best. My refried beans were hard and cold, and hubby’s fried shrimp were very dark and overdone. We did not eat there again. Overall the grounds are lovely. Pool clean but remember to pick up towels at reception. It is a far walk. Our room was above the restroom for the pool and the maintenance equipment and was noisy. And it was not dark at night for stargazing due to all the lights. Got to hear howler monkeys and saw macaws flying, but not the jungle experience I expected due to noise and lights.
