호텔 에스콘디도 오악사카 , 오악사카, 어 멤버 오브 디자인 호텔(Hotel Escondido Oaxaca, a Member of Design Hotels)

The hotel was charming and quaint. We had a balcony room, which faced away from the main streets (the hotel is in a corner of two busy streets). We could still hear the noise from the buses and cars either honking their horns or accelerating to go up the hill. Construction in the building beside the hotel had us hearing jackhammers going until late in the evening. Despite that, the hotel managed to redeem itself largely through its extremely professional yet friendly staff. From the reception to the restaurant, we felt welcomed and taken cared of. Too bad the noise levels were just beyond what they could manage.

Hip small property well located in Oaxaca. Shower was amazing and the grounds are so pretty. Down side is it’s on a noisy street Nice breakfast, good food, great service. Wonderful amenities from Escondido hotel in shower and bathroom!!!!

Really enjoyed the property. Modern but authentic. Great dining and great mezcal. Roof top is excellent as is the location. Highly recommended. Not too many rooms so not overly crowded. Front desk and bar staff were very helpful with all sorts of recommendations.

Do not stay here. Come visit for lunch / dinner, or go to the pool — the food is amazing and the common space is nice, but the rooms and service are atrocious. We arrived for a stay over NYE, and were excited at the beautiful common space and the amazing beach when we checked in. We sat by the pool and looked at the ocean. Everything was amazing until they showed us our room. The rooms are dark and dingy, and have clearly not been maintained. It seems like they also have not been cleaned regularly. Our room had a huge scorpion in it, and it took them 12 hours to send someone to remove it. There is a beautiful plunge pool in the back, but ours was covered in algae and filled with bugs. When we asked them to clean it, they just came and dumped chlorine into it (and left all the algae and dead bugs). There were tons of dead and living bugs in the room, lots of dust and sand, and every night when we came back there were pieces of mouse poop on the bed. The rooms are dark and dingy, with poor lighting. The lamp beside the bed was broken, and dangling by just the cord. They do not clean your room by default. When we asked them to clean it, they came a few hours later and replaced the towels and sheets. Unfortunately, a large amount of cash went missing from the table during the cleaning — should have put the cash in the safe! This seems like it used to be a great hotel, but nobody maintained it for the past 10 years. This is unfortunately seems pretty common in my experience with Grupo Habita. They build amazing common areas that are prime for Instagram, but their rooms are terrible. Come for lunch and dinner and to enjoy the common areas — but stay elsewhere!

Hotel Escondido was an amazing hotel and one of the coolest hotels my wife and I ever stayed at (we stayed 4 nights). While, the rooms may seem a bit dark, the various outdoor spaces very much make up for it. We relaxed by the pool, had drinks by the library and had snacks on the outdoor hotel terrace. The staff was extremely attentive and available to assist with any request (we even ordered drinks through WhatsApp when we didn't see a waiter and the hotel attempted to find us chocolate cake late at night). The price is well worth it at this hotel and I don't think the food and drinks at this hotel get enough credit. The architecture really has the Oaxaca feel but at the same time feels modern, which is unique for Oaxaca. I fully suggest staying here.

Beautiful peaceful design.. a true oasis! Lovely staff.. centrally located without being in the noisiest part of historic Oaxaca. Room was pretty, relaxing, very peaceful with a very comfortable bed. Everything worked (not always the case). Loved this hotel!

Great experience in this beautiful hotel. We stayed here for a couple of nights on our honeymoon and had the best time: the staff were great, the rooms are beautifully designed and the location is perfect. The hotel recommended a guide for a private food tour who was excellent. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to visit Oaxaca city.

The grounds are beautiful and the staff was very professional. We stayed at 3 hotels and this was the best. It's a beautiful place. The only tiny thing I would change is to have outlets at the bedside. There were only outlets in the bathroom space. But otherwise absolutely perfect.

We and another couple stayed October 2023 in the Top Suite and our friends were in a Balcony Room. Stylish and quirky design, rooms have character. Service low-key but friendly and efficient. I really wish I could recommend it as it is quite beautiful and centrally located. But I can't recommend it because of the extraordinary street noise -- the hotel is on one of the city’s major bus arteries and many Mexican buses have no muffler. The buses had to accelerate uphill next to the hotel. It was like have a jet engine take off a few feet away. Ear plugs and Ambien were no match although there was a respite between midnight-5am. There's little the hotel can do about it unfortunately. If you go I'd recommend the Patio rooms as they have the most protection from the street. Aside from the noise, we had a leak from the ceiling into our room, just a drip every minute or so but our room was below the swimming pool so it was a bit disconcerting, and the room smelled musty as a result. Especially noteworthy because it was the Escondido’s best room.
