11 Best Hotels in Oaxaca, Mexico for 2025

"This 18th-century casona turned boutique hotel located in the beating heart of Oaxaca is one of the most beautiful hotels in all the city. Behind an unassuming facade, the Talavera tile-adorned lobby gives way to a cantera verde central courtyard with views to the plant-lined, open-air corridors of the second story. Take breakfast at the communal table in the turquoise-tiled kitchen, choosing from a selection of traditional Oaxacan breakfasts and pastries from nearby bakeries. Artisan goods are found in abundance across the property, from the lobby’s beeswax candle chandelier to the potted endemic plants in barro verde (green ceramic) and the woven palm hats and bags available for day use in the guest suites. Grana’s rooftop offers sprawling views across the valley of Oaxaca, and is the ideal place to have a coffee or a nightcap, or catch a twice-weekly yoga class. Rounding out this beautiful property is the warm and attentive service and staff, who are available 24 hours a day."
