Casona Maria

This is a small boutique hotel with an amazing staff. The rooms open off a central indoor patio with stained glass and an open airy space. The room had a comfortable bed, great bathroom with shower, and lovely artisan touches in the decor. Breakfast was included in the price of the room, and we loved the dining room, and returned for a light dinner one night. The hotel is located about a 15 minute walk outside of the busy historical city center, which adds to the serenity. Bonus for us: La Luz Talavera is located directly behind the hotel on the adjacent street!

Our room was very clean, quiet, bright, and airy. We specifically asked for a room with a window, as many of the rooms don't have one, as is the case with many of the old colonial hotels. The common areas of the building are quite pretty and well-maintained. The neighborhood was an easy and pleasant 10 to 15 minute walk to the Zocalo. Across the street from the hotel is the university, and consequently, there is little night noise to disturb one's sleep. The staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly. The restaurant was terrific with a wonderful breakfast included in the price of the room. And it wasn't just hotel guests enjoying the restaurant, but also many people from the community.

Beautifully, architecturally rich boutique hotel with each room having its' own character! Resturaunt food and service was excellent; and the quaint bar upstairs a bonus! The small size made it that much more cozy and intimate. There was 7 of us with 3 different rooms and we enjoyed not having to walk a half a mile to meet! Service from front desk to cleaning was superb! Was perfect not being in the center of the tourist hub, but rather 3/4 mile down the ways! Got to have delicious food in the local resturaunts, as well as in the center of Puebla.

A great stay! Very close to the tourist center and the staff were very kind and accommodating. The free continental breakfast was also excellent!

I booked a suite solely for the jacuzzi tub and it was marvellous! The suite was large, beautifully appointed and the bed and pillows so comfortable. Nice little touches, too…slippers and housecoat, cookies on the bed. Excellent free breakfast included. The entire ambience of this hotel is marvellous. Very good location, too.
