Relatively updated hotel. Small but confy rooms at decent prices
I stayed here in May 2022 with my family and friends. We had 3 separate rooms. The location of the hotel was excellent for our 5 night visit. The rooms were very clean, all linens were good quality and smelt fresh. The room and bathroom were somewhat small but functional, renovated and air conditioned so we didn’t mind at all. I have recommended this hotel to other friends travelling to Oaxaca soon, and we will stay here again should we return. We are the free breakfast which was fairly basic but tasty. Also, the staff were very helpful with our bags and we had laundry done while there which was arranged through the reception desk. Was much appreciated, thank you!
Amazing property. The Service is excellent. The rooms are beautiful. The all people who work in the hotel are Very kind. I would definetely recomend ABU Hotel. The área is Very safe. The location is excellent close to the Zocalo and Santo Domingo Church
Room is neat and comfortable, clean, but without the window. What we didn’t like was that we were told at the reception that we’ll have a buffet for the breakfast, but on the next morning it was just a choice from the menu - fruits or fruit juice, omelette or Mexican dish and tea or coffee.
This was a great experience, it was as advertised. Clean rooms, extremely close to the zocalo and the staff was very friendly. No parking on site but they do valet. Definitely worth the money!!
Clean and friendly. Will stay here again. Parking sucks...but it sucks everywhere in downtown.
The location is great. But the breakfast needs to be improved.
Great location. Easy to walk to several key attractions and good restaurants near by. Rooms smallish but clean and comfortable.
Busy area with baroque Santo Domingo Church & museum, plus street food at Mercado 20 de Noviembre.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Oaxaca. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
