Overall, the hotel is very pretty and within walking distance of pretty much everything. We were right next to a departure point for the tours we took and the staff in the hotel were very nice. We were able to check in early and check out a little bit late without issues. The only things we didn't like were that the fridge in our room was not working and the WiFi in the hotel could be spotty at times. Also, there were a few days were we didn't have hot water. None the less, we had a very pleasant time.

We stayed at their supplement hotel with 3 very nice 2 storied lofts with kitchenettes. Unfortunately we were in the middle with a loft on either side of us. There was a bunch of young travelers with dogs, including a puppy, staying in the 2 suites. They partied all night loudly, playing music and singing until 9 am the following morning, which is when we left on a tour. It's too bad we didn't get to experience the wonderful comfy beds to the max. We couldn't sleep for the noise. Not that we would have complained, but there wasn't a phone in our room to call anyone to say anything to had we wanted to. It was really not a pleasant experience. Otherwise the hotel was very nice. It was very cold, being San Cristobal, so bring your jammies and no heaters to be found. Very close to the cento and many good restaurants in the area. Not sure if we'd return.

First of all I am a professional photojournalist (National Geographic, Unesco) and have stayed in more than 3000 hotels in 160+ countries during the past 40 years. That said I want to make a strong criticism of the Hotel Helverica in San Cristobal. While the hotel is well located near the central square and many restaurants, and the staff was generally good, the lack of hearting in the winter months is a problem. If one is spending the entire day outside this will not be a problem but if one wishes to stay inside one’s room to work on writing such as I do, then the unpleasant cold temperature will be very bothersome. I asked for a heater but was rudely informed that I had not paid for one and would be charged extra. This seemed wrong to me, given that I was paying more than $75 per night for the room. I have stayed in many, many hundreds of hotel rooms where the heating was provided at no extra cost and feel that the Helverica is definitely overcharging for the service it gives. The additional cost for heating is NOT mentioned anywhere on Hotels.com and I think this is at the expense of the client. My advice: do not use this hotel or be ready to be uncomfortable cold.

The location of the hotel is awesome. However, the room I stayed in, number 14, is behind a club that plays music until 5am. It was loud and I couldn’t sleep well because Of the noise. This complaint has been all over the Internet but I thought it was a manageable issue. But it was not. Don’t recommend rooms at the back of the hotel.

Spent two nights here. Fantastic location near the central square. Has gated, private parking. We reserved the two-story townhouse a couple blocks from the main hotel (where you check-in). It was super clean, modern, and spacious. It had its own balcony with hammock and chairs next to the bedroom/bathroom, all upstairs. Downstairs had a kitchen with refrigerator, microwave, sink, blender, etc. There is no a/c, but not a problem at all since San Cristobal is a lot cooler than most Mexican towns. The are is tons of activity with restaurants and shopping all withing walking distance. We parked our car and never used it again until we checked out. The staff was extremely helpful and polite. We will definitely stay here again in the future!

Gorgeous, modern hotel in the heart of San Cristobal. We stayed in the small apartment style room--2 blocks from the main hotel. Our car was parked right in front of our room behind a locked door. The rooms was very clean and well-appointed. The upstairs bedroom had a bathroom with shower and a balcony with hammock and chairs. The downstairs had a kitchen and seating area. The main hotel I just off the square and out place was a couple minutes walk from there. Super convenient. We were surrounded by restaurants and walked everywhere. The front desk staff was friendly and very helpful. We will definitely stay here again!!
