Tranquility, excellent food and a beautiful place to unwind are the hallmarks of this hotel. Without exception, the hotel staff was attentive and welcoming, and we felt like personal guests for our entire stay. I recommend booking the hotel cars for airport trips and sight-seeing trips. The local taxis are a bit of a wild ride and the hotel transport felt safer and certainly more comfortable. Tips for first timers to Oaxaca: pace yourself on sight-seeing, the trips can be long and the roads a bit bumpy. On visits to textile houses and mezcal making, the expectation is that you buy at the end of the tour; the preferred payment is in pesos. The locals are very proud of their heritage, and it is well worth hiring a tour guide at the historic sights as they are a wealth of information. We learned so much!
