Beautiful hotel located in the City Downtonw area with a walkable distance to mayor atractions. This hotel has an art theme and has some beautiful pieces from some of Oaxaca´s most important artists. It is set in a historic building which was renewed with a very nice architectural style. The room we had had a private patio on the side, which was a great feature as my Wife likes to meditate or read early in the morning before going to breakfast. The room is not big enough and has limited space to place clothing. It could also have a couch to place things.

Wonderful property with very comfortable rooms. We had a security at the front hotel entrance which helped load our taxi and kept us without any worries. The rooms were beautiful and clean.

Okay, this is an honest review, we just checked out today! I was a little skeptical because of reviews, but let me say this is one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in anywhere that I’ve traveled. Pros: - extremely close to the center of the city where everything is happening, our longest walk was maybe 9 minutes to the mercado - the staff is very friendly and ready to help with anything and everything. They are truly accommodating - the rooms are beautiful, just as you see in the photos - very clean which is a ++ for me! And every time we came back to our room the room was very thoroughly cleaned, not just a little “makeup”. The bed spread was the only thing that seemed a little gross as there were some stains on it. - great water pressure and shower - great tv, if you are coming back to rest with smart options - very serene, we loved it overall A few cons, which I will say will not keep me from coming back. If I visit Oaxaca again (this was our first time) I will stay here if I am able to, so take these with a grain of salt. - we didn’t realize there was breakfast for a while because we arrived late one night, but we wanted to try it. It’s only available 8-12 so we finally went our last day. The coffee was delicious, and so was the loaf of bread. We ordered chilaquiles and they were cold - both of plates. Not a lot of options either. - the mini fridge had many options but every time we opened it, it was warm. Not a huge deal as we didn’t grab a lot, but the fe

Staff was extremely helpful and accommodating all throughout our stay. I can't thank them enough for all their recommendations. The hotel has the perfect location everything you need to see in Oaxaca Centro is literally walking distance. The only 2 things I'd comment on that weren't great was the parking situation which ironic enough our car broke down during our stay and the car was at the shop during our stay but you do need to let them know in advance you are coming for them to save you a spot and also it is street parking. All in all, amazing little hotel and great staff!

La Spira is a small, chic and art filled boutique hotel in the Centro of Oaxaca. The hotel has a super cool, classy, artful interior design. Each room has original art and modern design. The location is great; it's within a few blocks of the Zocolo, mercados, and cathedrals. The neighborhood felt very safe, but there is somone on staff 24/7. The room we had is well designed but small. It had one window to the courtyard so if you want privacy, the shade must be down so the room takes on a bit of a cave feeling. Because the room was small, it would have been great if the platform bed were high even to slide a suitcase under, like they make on cruise ships. The other issue with the bed was the sharp wood corners which are shin height, guaranteeing a smashed and bruise leg when trying to navigate around the room. The other design vs function issue is the round shelf under the sink. While I understand it is forward to hide the plumbing, it means there is no space for your feet when you stand in front of the vanity, so the tendency is to smash your toes into the metal shelf repeatedly. The other issue is a safety one. We had a very early start one day and had to wake up the security person. He had to unlock the front gate/door with a key. These means in the case of a fire, everyone would be trapped in the building. I would suggest a knob deadbolt or another type of lock that could be operated by anyone in the case of an emergency.

Wonderfully designed hotel. It feels an oasis in a different part of town. The thought that goes into each room is really wonderful, and hands down we had one of the best showers we’ve ever had. We had a car, and they were very kind to always facilitate parking outside. Our only small gripes were that the room does open right onto the courtyard, so we always had the blind down for privacy. The also wasn’t that much space for storage. Finally, the breakfast didn’t feel up to the standard that the rest of the hotel has set.

Unique artist inspired hotel. The hotel was beautiful and the staff were very helpful. Parking was a breeze. Great location.

Beautiful small hotel in historic district, conveniently located less than 10 minutes away (walking distance) from the towns main square. Rooms are very nicely set, as well as the bathrooms. Staff is friendly and there’s a terrace where you can have breakfast. Definitely would return.
