Casa Santa Lucia

This hotel is a little gem, probably the best hotel we stayed at during our trip to Mexico. The lobby and the rooms are beautifully decorated, each room showcasing pieces of local craftmanship from a different town in Chiapas. We had a room upstairs which was quiet and very comfortable. The breakfast is very good and they were very kind to offer us a packed lunch instead of breakfast for the last day as we were leaving quite early. Conveniently located, you can walk anywhere. Super recommended.

Just returned home from our visit to San Cristobal and our wonderful stay at Casa Santa Lucia. The hotel was located just an easy, short walk from the busy center of town making it an ideal location for exploring the shops, churches and museums. ||The front door is kept locked with staff always in the reception and everything about the hotel felt extremely safe. Our room, Zinacantan, was spacious and very comfortable. All of the rooms are beautifully decorated with examples of the textiles and amber from the Chiapas area. Breakfast was wonderful with many choices and generous portions.||All of the staff there were extremely helpful in recommending places to eat, and very patient with our limited Spanish. Freddie, the manager, was a great help in arranging our tour of the canyon and taxi back to the airport.||We would highly recommend Casa Santa Lucia and look forward to a future visit!

Amazing experience at this hotel. First off everyone treats you like family, the rooms are super clean and provide you with all your needs. Breakfast is delicious each and every time. I felt like at home in this hotel. Well one thing to note is that you can hear other guests since everyone is so quiet. We heard a full on conversation from another guest across the hallway, aside from that I would definitely stay here in a heartbeat.

Charming little hotel a short stroll from the main square. Rooms were large with lots or artwork and antiques. Breakfast was included and it was substantial with plenty of options. The hotel was very quiet although there were obviously other guests it was very peaceful. All the staff we dealt with were friendly and helpful. Felt very safe, front door was locked and you had to knock to be let in.

We loved our 6 night stay at Casa Santa Lucia. The location is perfect because you can walk to restaurants, shops and points of interest. The staff was very welcoming, check-in was easy and we were able to see and choose our room (Magdalenas). At check-in we were given a map of the city with recommendations for dining, shopping, etc. The restaurant recommendations were excellent.|Breakfast was included and it wasn’t just a continental breakfast. You had your choice of different egg dishes with and without meat. Bread and pan dulce to start. Breakfast is from 8 to 11 and one morning we had an early tour but they allowed us to be seated at 7:30 so we could eat before leaving for the day. They are so accommodating. They even booked several tours for us. |The front door is always locked but you can come and go as you please. The rooms are beautifully decorated, very clean and the bed and pillows were comfortable. All the rooms face the courtyard where breakfast is served. They even have a bar with beer, wine and cocktails. There is some street noise in the morning which is to be expected because you are in the city center. The windows facing the street don’t open except the one in the bathroom and the one facing the courtyard. There is no A/ C or ceiling fan but you really don’t need it. They do offer portable fans.|We loved San Cristobal and would definitely stay here again and recommend this boutique hotel to family and friends.

What a beautiful, warm and welcoming hotel! It’s intimate, so the experience feels very personal. Excellent bed, charming and comfortable room, terrific breakfast, easy location. Bathroom and shower very nice. The breakfast courtyard is beautifully decorated. Fredi and Frank gave us lots of good advice about where to eat and what to do in town. They set up four days of tours with a friendly driver. Midway through the visit they surprised us with a holiday gift. Overall, a marvelous experience!

The best hotel we stayed in on our trip through Mexico! Very spacious rooms, cosy atmosphere and everything very clean. The staff is very friendly, they were very helpful in listening to all our different needs, such as unrealistic arrival and departure times. Thanks to Fred and the whole team!

We absolutely loved this beautiful boutique hotel from the moment we walked in until the moment we left! The staff are lovely and really helpful - we arranged some great tours through them - and the decor inside and outside the rooms is wonderful! Location is perfect, just a few mins from the centre of town, and the prices are more than fair for the lovely rooms and delicious food, and the crowning touch was a birthday display that the staff left for my partner's birthday - we were delighted to return from a long day out to find cake and balloons in our room! Of all the places we've stayed in Mexico, this one stands out. Please do yourself a favour and stay here if ever you get the chance. Magnificent, and would give it 6 stars if I could.
