Front desk staff always helpful; in fact a person helped us with our luggage at check in. Valet parking was perfect for us and car brought back at time promised. Breakfast buffet is a must. The room was roomy and well appointed. Easily the best place we stayed at during 3 weeks in the Iberian peninsula.

The hotel is beautiful, the room was very comfortable with bath sheets and a large well equipped bathroom. Staff are friendly and helpful in English. The location is superb. We used the car valet for parking at a cost of 25 euro - we were told to give 30 minutes notice when we were ready for it. It took them 1 hour 10 minutes to bring us the car from the time I gave notice which meant we had a late start to our day of travel. This put a damper on our opinion of the hotel

This was a lovely hotel in a lovely location. Great staff. I would give it five stars but it was only slightly let down by two things: a) The hotel is RIGHT on the main square of old-town Merida. A great location for sure but there is quite a bit of noise associated with the opening and closing of the bars on the square b) I’m not sure if it was just my room but my bathroom had VERY smelly drains. It’s an old historic building I know but….Someone sensitive might need to change rooms. I did my best to ignore it.

Loved the hotel, its proximity to everything that Mérida has and my room on the front, except that they clean the square at 06:30 in the morning, so if your on the front, be prepared to be woken up. I thought the breakfast was poor, too many people, no eggs for fifteen minutes and only one coffee machine, very disappointing.

The welcome desk staff was fantastic. Told us that the museum was only open on Sunday and as we were leaving on Tuesday so if we wanted to see it we should go there first. Absolutely the most helpful advice we got. We loved our room and the location. Absolutely a fantastic hotel. Highly recommend it. Cannot say anything bad about it.

Excellent location, great staff.

Excellent location and very good car parking service. Nice room overlooking Plaza de Spaña. Interesting building with delightful staff. Can a hotel with a swimming pool that’s only open seasonally qualify as a 5*?
