Mesón Sacristía de la Compañía

I'll start by saying I stay at boutique hotels because I believe it's very important to support small & local businesses. So here are just the facts that I wish I had before booking this trip. WATER: The bathroom did not flush on several occasions so my poop was floating for hours. On one night, the shower completely stopped as I was getting ready for dinner. I had to step out of my room wrapped in only a towel with dinner guests seeing me naked and covered in soap, totally humiliated, to tell the worker what had happened. SECURITY: There is no modern locking system. You are given a 12 inch key from Lord of the Rings, and the mechanism takes several minutes to figure out, if you can even get it locked. And what are you supposed to do with a 12 inch key? Pocket it?? The worker tells you to hang it on the door and he will watch the door. What is the point of locking your door if the key is hanging on the door?! And I am supposed to trust someone I have never met to protect my belongings and cash? I will post a video of what it's like to lock this door. LOCATION: Very safe & beautiful neighborhood. Walkable to everything in the historic center. If you go to sleep before midnight, you will be awake listening to the clubs in the neighborhood blasting music. DECOR: This hotel is very charming. If you are tall, the short Hobbit style doors might be inconvenient for you.

I would 100% stay here again. You absolutely can’t beat the location. Our room was spacious and we had a balcony. The AC worked very well. Just keep in mind that if water pressure is very important for you, this is not the place for that. :) Also, your door key gets passed around a lot (cleaning person, etc). We really appreciated the coffee maker and local coffee. Carlos was very kind and looked out for us, and his English is excellent.

This place is beautiful, classy and the location is perfect. The owner and the young woman at the front desk are the nicest people you can imagine. The owner went way out of his way to,help me with parking my motorcycle. I’d stay here again without question. Highly recommended!!!

We planned this trip for March 2020 and was just now able to make it to Puebla. Of course, COVID changed everything and unfortunately this hotel no longer serves food or has a bar, but did not stop us from enjoying the ambiance of the hotel and it's many beautiful things. The location could not bed more perfect...4-5 minute walk to main square and a beautiful square literally outside the door and across the street with a wonderful pizza restaurant with outside dining. Down the street within 1-2 minute walk is another beautiful square with several restaurants and on Saturdays and Sundays has a wonderful flea market full of vendors.||||Our room was very spacious and the bath had been redone. This is a small hotel with only 8-9 rooms that are all furnished differently with Mexican Antiques and other period furniture. ||||The owner, Umberto, who speaks fluently in English, provided a driver, Adrian, who speaks English as well to pick us up ant the airport and take us back. In addition, he arranged for the driver to take us to a pharmacy to get the COVID test which is required for travel back to USA. Carlos, the on site manager of the hotel so attentive and was able to supply us anything that we needed during our stay. He would provide us ice every evening in a beautiful silver ice bucket on a stand for our evening happy hour in our room and in the indoor courtyard of the hotel. He was amazing and so accommodating and speaks English.||||I would recommend this hotel as according to Carlos, they will be reopening the restaurant and bar in the next few months and have taken the time during COVID to really "freshen" up the hotel with painting, etc.||||Definitely recommend,

This was our first visit to Puebla and the Mesón Sacristía proved to be a perfect base for exploring this beautiful city. This small hotel is located on one of the most picturesque streets in Puebla, just three blocks from the zocalo and a frequent setting for wedding and other special occasion photographs. The building is over 250 years old and the rooms are spacious, bright, clean and quiet. We stayed in a room with a balcony overlooking the colorful street. The ceilings are about twelve feet high and the rooms, furnished with attractive antiques, have tile floors.||||The room rate includes an excellent breakfast with fruit, bread and egg dishes as well as some Puebla specialties served in the courtyard restaurant, which also serves delicious local specialties for dinner. ||||There are a great many museums and other sites of interest within easy walking distance of the hotel and adjacent pedestrian streets host a weekend handicraft market. ||||The friendly and helpful staff provided lots of information on places of interest and excellent restaurant recommendations. We took advantage of the opportunity for airport pick-up and took two out of town day trips with staff member Andres who is an especially careful driver with a very comfortable car. The hotel will also arrange for tours with a local agency to the many interesting places within two hours of the city.||||We spent ten nights but still did not see all that the city and the surrounding area has to offer. A return visit next year is likely, and we will surely book another stay in the Mesón Sacristía.

We keep returning to this charming boutique hotel year after year! Meson Sacristia provides the most romantic atmosphere in the heart of historic Puebla. We absolutely fell in love with this unique hotel years ago! Breakfasts are delicious and colorful, served on authentic, hand-made Talavera dishes. Hotel provides many services, including even culinary lessons in English! Best in town, upscale Mexican arts and crafts store is just across the street. The hotel has a great restaurant on premises, and if you want variety, it is surrounded by best restaurants in Puebla. Artists' quarters, The Cathedral and all museums are a short walk away. ||Many thanks to Mr. Edgar Desiga, Hotel Manager, for arranging our transportation from and to Mexico City, and for making our stay absolutely delightful and enjoyable! We hope to see you again next year!

Had a wonderful stay pre-pandemic so we returned as soon as we could after learning to live with the pandemic. Things have changed. The pink walls are now blue and they are now starting to receive guests again after a tough two years caused by Covid19. Those who have stayed at this hotel during the warm season already know about the covered patio where meals were served. It continues to be uncomfortably warm because there is no circulation to disperse the warm air from the skylight above. Yet what saved our stay was the great team of Carlos, Eufemia and Claudia. They did everything they could to make us feel welcomed and Eufemia made great breakfasts each day. After the initial disorientation caused by the physical changes to the hotel, we settled down to 4 days of enjoying our gracias on site hosts, visiting our favorite sites and appreciating the wonderful location on the Street of Toad. ||Amazing how three kind, gracious and cheerful people can change one's attitude.

Very nicely located in a charming street downtown Puebla. Walking distance to all major downtown attractions. The hotel itself is a cozy traditional mexican villa. Breakfast was outstanding, several options available and freshly made upon request, including excellent regional dishes. Overall we have a very pleasant stay, also mainly due to the very friendly and attentive service from the hotel staff!
