The place is beatifull, but....the day we arrived was a Tuesday service was ok, kind of slow but that is the pace there, but by Thursday the place was full and the service just went bad, the people was rude, The restaurant was the worst, they are short of personnel, Bottom line, worth having a drink at the bar, but service even at the recepcion desk is terrible.

The pictures of the hotel are deceiving. The entrance is impressive but that is where it stops. The rooms were roomy and clean but worn out and sparse. The mattresses were hard and the sheets were thin. There was one chair and one luggage rack for 3 people. The staff were friendly and very professional. It was spooky at night as we saw very few other guests. The location and price were great! We never saw a fitness center anywhere. The nightclub/bar was always empty. I don't know what I expected for $47 per night! We considered moving to a different hotel but it seemed like too much work,

My husband and I stayed there for a wedding in the Merida area last March. We thought this would be a great place to stay, having looked at other hotel websites. The rest seemed overpriced and this one seemed to be clean and well kept. Once we got there, we had to make a double take. Not what we had signed up for at all. It was as if a tornado had passed by and no one cared to restore the building. Cracked walls. Stained, leaky, yellowish. Has never been painted again. Bed linen, towels, and curtains that look as if they haven't been replaced, ever. The same goes for the pillows. As if they had pebbles in them from the long lasting wear and tear. Do not stay here if you're into cleanliness and comfort.



and not only that, there was an overall stench to it.

The old Hotel Mision Merida was old and dilapidated so they acquired what was formerly a Hotel Calinda. When one enters the Hotel from the front entrance the sight is awesome with the plants and fountain in the solarium in the center of the hotel. The new location is a few more blocks from El Zocalo (the town plaza) but still a great location. Right next door is a well known restaurant, Las Almendras, where one can experience some very fine traditional Yucatan cuisine. All the rooms are spacious and have free WIFI. I found the staff to be very helpful and accommodating. If you want to go to Chitzen Itza, a must see for a first time visitor to the Yucatan, they have transportation available every day. At the rear of the hotel is a large swimming pool and covered dining area. I expect to return to Merida quite soon and I will most certainly stay at this hotel.
