The hotel has an antique style , it is very nice and clean . The beds are confortable and with a/c in each room. I feel this hotel in in the center of the old downtown and the modern colonial downtown. The staff is great, taxis I needed they could schedule it for me on time . Also safe environment.

El Gran Hotel - Beautiful, historical, lots of detail in the building and furnishings. The staff was very nice and helpful at all times. With the hotel, being in Mérida Centro, it is nice to walk to the garden, the Cathedrals, the Vaqueria and Jarana, traditional dances, on Monday and much more. I would recommend this hotel.
