We loved staying at Hotel Azucenas |for our week in Oaxaca. This small hotel is in an old hispanic building only a few minutes’ walk from the centro historico. It has a leafy central courtyard and a lovely roof terrace with lots of pot plants. The staff are lovely, very friendly and helpful and Silvia speaks good English. It has the atmosphere of a family run business. We liked the simple rooms which are colourful and clean. We were in an outward facing room but a double glazed outer window kept the noise levels down. The beds are comfortable with clean cotton sheets and there is a fan. ||The kitchen area on the roof terrace was a real bonus, breakfast is optional but there is a fridge where guests can keep food to do their own thing. We liked being able to make our own hot drinks, while cold drinks are always available from a chiller at a very reasonable price. ||Oaxaca has grown massively in recent years and a huge amount of new hotels and AirB&Bs have opened up, offering varying standards and spiralling prices. If you are looking for an small, authentic, quiet and friendly place at a reasonable price, then you will love Hotel Azucenas. If you want something more fancy, with things like Air con and TVs, there are other places at much higher prices but remember that tourism is placing enormous resouce pressures on Oaxaca, especially water, so wherever you stay, be responsible in how you use it.
