Posada James is a beautiful hotel with wonderful owners & staff, within easy walking distance of Las Pozas / the Edward James sculpture garden. The owners went out of their way to make sure I had a good stay, and the staff were friendly and kind (and wonderful cooks!) The view from the porch where food was served was unbelievably beautiful. Would absolutely stay again!

Xilitla is a paradise by itself but Posada James added a nice touch to our trip. The location, owners, food and thenentire personnel were amazing. You can also get some discounts on local attractions. The surrealist garden of Ed James is withing a short walk distance.

Two days in Xilitla

Our hosts at Posada Verde were very accomodating. They helped us obtain entrances to the Garden of Edward James and arranged for an english speaking guide. The food at the Posada was excellent and the contenental breakfast was lovely. The beds and pillows were so comfortable, i contemplated staying a third night just to enjoy the comfort and good sleep

Where do I start, you must stay here it was a dream, very nice staff and el dueño, no pues era muy hamable. En la mañana el andaba solo y el nos hice café. You can walk to the garden of Edward James. And the view is amazing. Rooms clean and warm, food delicious. Exactly like the photos (even better) exceeded my expectations, also quiet for us viejitas but you can walk to the party it’s very close. Super peaceful.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The location was close to the entrance of the Edward James Gardens. It had a nice patio with a beautiful view and a pool. The breakfast was supposed to be included, but they charged us for it. We had to change rooms because it was musty and mildew. The room they gave us had double beds instead of a king, no TV and no screens on the windows. The tub and shower left a lot to be desired and they charged us same price as an upgraded room.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities

Good location, terrible rooms

First the good: The lobby/reception area is very nice. The patio has amazing views. The food was great, and the staff was nice. The location is walking distance from the Jardín Escultórico. The bad: Our room was pretty terrible. It felt like it hasn't had any maintenance in decades. The floor looked disgusting. There was black mold in the bathroom. The bathroom layout made no sense. It has a tub in the middle with a rainfall shower head coming out of the side, which came up to shoulder height. The table lamp didn't work. It had a ridiculously small TV (Michael Scott style). The hotel dogs started brawling at 4:30am. Would not stay here again.
