Hotel Casa del Balam - 3 Stars I recently stayed at Hotel Casa del Balam during my visit to Merida, Yucatán, and overall, it was a decent experience, though there were some aspects that could use improvement. First, the location is fantastic. It’s situated right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore the local attractions, restaurants, and markets on foot. The architecture of the hotel is charming, reflecting the rich history of the region, which added to the overall ambiance. However, the service was a mixed bag. While some staff members were friendly and helpful, others seemed indifferent and not as attentive as I would have hoped. It felt like there was a lack of consistency in customer service, which detracted from the overall experience. The room I stayed in was comfortable, but it could use some updates. The furnishings felt a bit dated, and the bathroom amenities were basic. I also noticed that the Wi-Fi connection was spotty at times, which was a bit frustrating when trying to plan my daily activities. In summary, Hotel Casa del Balam has a lot of potential with its prime location and beautiful architecture, but it falls short in service consistency and room updates. It’s a solid choice for those looking for a convenient place to stay, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

The staff is lovely, I like the the convenience of Bistrola 57 being on site. I love the antiqueness of the room and the grandness of the center courtyard. It's like staying in someone's home. Any time I come to Mérida, it's my go to hotel.

Casa Balam - Another great stay in Merida

We have been staying at Balam for 5 years now when we have come to Merida. Staff are great, rooms and large and comfortable and the location is perfect. We highly recommend Casa Balam.

Great location in Merida Centro. Walking distance to wide selection of restaurants, stores, and historic plazas. The hotel has character and architectural appeal but is in need of some repairs and updating. My husband and I had booked a premium room with 2 queen beds, but upon arrival were given a small room with one full bed. We spent an uncomfortable first night but were able to change rooms the next day. The hotel and restaurant staff were friendly and accomodating.

The property was more run down than the photos show on the website. The room was pretty but dirty. One of our rokms didnt have ac, clean towels or a working shower. The staff were nice and the restaurant was very nice and served us by the pool. The hotel is in an excellent location however. Overall we would stay again.
