Hotel De La Parra

The property is lovely. The room was surprisingly outdated though and nothing special, no real effort in furnishings or design.

Love this place and super convenient! Highly recommend. Kid friendly and very walkable to all local spots.

Everything was great!

We had a great time.

Everything was great, convenient and just as shown/described online.

This trip was amazing. I did have to book tonight separately, but my main room was balcony was everything! Definitely worthwhile!
I was able to enjoy the pool, the food, and above all, the location!
The rooms were comfortable, the showers were perfect, and the staff was great!

Nice pool area and really walkable to everything in the center of the city.

Everything was nice and people were very stand polite

Hotel didn’t try to make the stay welcoming. The pool was covered till 10am or later, so no early swimming. Bar not open most hours or days. Room stunk a bit, because of sewer gas, they had covers over drain to help, but it didn’t help. Location was great and place was pretty, but wouldn’t stay here again.

It was a great stay in the perfect area. I would stay here again

Great location. Service is great. Would definitely stay here the next time we visit oaxaca

Hotel de la Parra was excellent in many ways. It was off season so we enjoyed quietness and the service. Swimming in the pool was tranquil in the hustle of busy city center. Ever staff was cordial and responsive. Our room was air conditioned so we were able to relax and enjoy the stay any time of the day. We enjoyed excellent breakfast offered at the courtyard. All in all, we would reuse the hotel next time we visit again.

Loved the courtyard with the pool. So tranquil .. but the sun is only there mid day because it is a courtyard of an old building. You can order drinks out by the pool but staff were a bit slow.

So quiet and close to the Zocalo. It was our second time staying here. Comfy beds. Great find.

The hotel gets a one star review because it provided a room with no window (for $300/night).

We arrived late and were given a room with no window or other source of natural light. It was like a large and claustrophobic cupboard.

The next day we told the manager that the hotel should not be letting such rooms. In many countries it is illegal to have a bedroom with no window, for amenity and fire-safety reasons. The manager provided only excuses ("many hotel rooms in Mexico have no windows", "It's an old building and hard to convert", etc). We asked for some compensation and a change of room. An alternative room had a very small opaque window and little light. It was poor value.

We found a better room nearby at half the price, but the hotel refused to let us move out. We were eventually provided with better accomodation (no compensation for the inadequate room).

The hotel also does not meet Mexican fire safety regulations because it has no signs showing fire emergency escape routes.

Nice hotel, staff, comfortable I would suggest adding handle bars to the shower room would be nice and safer.

Lovely country style hotel right in the heart of Oaxaca. Beautiful swimming pool. Great breakfast. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful.

It is on a quiet street. The swimming pool is great after being out in the hot sun. The staff was really wonderful— very helpful and always friendly. All very clean. Doors could be wide open and there were no bugs. The one somewhat annoying thing was Ave Maria blasting from a nearby church at midnight every night, and other music at 6 am.

Very cozy property, that took me back to the memories of my early childhood at my grandmother’s house. Nice pool with shaded area. Beautiful religious paintings.

The hotel is in a great location, 1 block from the zocalo, on a quiet pedestrianised road, so minutes from restaurants, bars and shops.
Staff were very friendly, helpful and informative, dealing with minor requests promptly (light bulb replacement).
Although our room was compact it had plenty of storage (something we found challenging elsewhere in Mexico) and was clean and comfy. We had large patio doors to a small balcony that gave light, but really needed some sheer curtains for privacy, and the main curtains only just covered them.
Breakfast was good and generous in a nice courtyard setting.
We would definitely come back.

Super nice boutique hotel right in the middle of the city. Wonderful staff and very nice rooms and pool.
