Overall Ratings & Reviews Casa De Las Columnas

It is an older establishment but was clean and friendly staff coffee and pastry were available in the morning Was not noisey

Beautiful old Spanish colonial casa, with big rooms and super friendly staff. Not a 4 star place, but had a really comfortable bed and clean sheets, and for $30 bucks a night can’t beat! The other most important thing for hotels in Merida are the air conditioner, and the one in my room worked great. Pretty loud, but washed out any street noise and I slept fine. But be warned in case that bothers you. The matttress was surprisingly new and very comfy, and I was all set! there’s a great hip new coffee shop just up here block, and an Oxxo (Mexican equivalent of 7-11). And super safe neighborhood, even late at night. Security gate in front is always locked, so when you check in you need to find the doorbell which is inside the gate and high up!

It has a nice structure, but there is no restaurant in premises neither close by. They have a kitchen with very old dishes and appliances that guess can use to cook, but is not very clean. Furnished in bedroom is falling apart.. but people in Merida are very nice.

It was adequate. Lovely courtyard. They need to work on their kitchen. Also need to supply a coffee pot.

No breakfast , worse, NO COFFEE!!! Great staff and location, Ike the character of the building

Looks and feel like this place is abandoned, not very save, no parking, no restaurant, needs a lot of work, bathrooms is disrepair, green pool and the list goes on. We check out and went to a different hotel. Expedia should not have this property is far from the pictures and description.

Very hice hotel. Not as walking distante from main square as we thought

Small, clean hotel with the charm of a Spanish house.

Mérida is too big for me to get around in so, we settled on taking a couple of tours. The kitchen unit was nice to have and there was a grocery store a few blocks away. We really enjoyed the staff and there sense of humour as we kept having trouble with our key. One time we even had to get them to remove a screen on the window and climb in to open the door. We all just laughed

Old fashioned charm, upgraded to junior suite for kitchen. Girls at front desk very easy to deal with.

The door bell to ring for entry could not be easily seen.

A very nice hotel with a beautiful building and minimal amenities, just like I like it.

We booked this hotel for it's location but it isn't great. We walked to Centro district but it was about 15 minutes outside. You may not feel comfortable walking back to the hotel. The room was clean but we ran out of water (literally) when the first person took a shower and at the beginning of the shower. Very strange. The courtyard was cute but the pool was a little funky.

Perfect colonial , great location, close to the airport and everything you need in Merida

The hotel is very cute with an interesting decor but it appears sorely unmaintained. The breakfast was very underwhelming, but the china plate ware was a cute detail.

Super relax, my mom and I sleep great, no noise at all. Beds and great big and comfy, nice AC and fan, warm Water, good size tv with cable , deco is Spanish style super cute and the pool super cute and clean !!!! No bugs !! We will come back and will recommend this hotel .

I close this place because in the pictures I saw all the rooms furnished in antiques. I am somewhat of a buff, and was not disappointed. They have some beautiful pieces. I got a single room which was clean and charming with a balcony overlooking the courtyard garden and pool. There was only one other couple there so I felt like I had the place to myself. They have a "self serve" kitchen with the basics, coffee, beer, some alcohol, bottled water, and set up continental breakfast in the morning with fruit, cereal, juice, coffee and coffee cake. There is a large grocery store around the corner, so if you wanted to make your own meals you could definitely do that as there aren't any restaurants close by. Center is about 12 blocks where there are many restaurants. There is a rooster close by which starts trumpeting in the early morning which added to the ambiance. I only stayed one night, between towns, but could have enjoyed a longer stay if I was in town.

Staff is really helpful and noce.very wuiet place with a small pool to plunge in if too hot. No restaurant or bar service but a couple of blocks away you will find supermarket, a cantina ( yes a real mexican Cantina were I met some Nice locals) and other stuff since 59 street is a happenning street.

We had booked the Casa De Las Columnas for 14 days in January/February. This hacienda was built around 1900 and converted to a hotel 8 years ago. There are about a dozen rooms on two floors surrounding a very attractive courtyard with greenery and a pool. The rooms are a bit dark and furnished with antiques that could use repair. The rooms can smell a bit musty when unoccupied for a while in the Mexican heat. A bit of fresh paint would help. Our room was a reasonable size and our bathroom was large. Our bed was comfortable and we had crisp clean sheets every day. The air conditioning was good and the wifi was strong and fast. Being on the main floor gave us direct access to the pleasant courtyard. The breakfast was very basic so we supplemented ours from the very good supermarket that is just a two minute walk away. Some of the staff speak English but others either are unable to or are too shy. It's a 20 minute walk (or 5 minutes by bus) to the historic center of town, directly down busy Calle 59. That discouraged us from taking in enough of Merida‘s many evening events. The hotel is not popular and had only a few rooms occupied for the entire period of our stay. I would recommend this hotel only to open minded people who appreciate historic Mexico but not to those who prefer more modern standards.

I want to preface this by saying this is the first negative review I have ever written, and the first time I have ever bailed on a reservation. I've traveled a lot in Mexico, and often stay in hostels or rented apartments, so my expectations are not 5 star - but while it looks pretty on the outside, this place was seriously awful. When I arrived, I was shown to a room with no windows, which absolutely reeked of mould. Running the AC and fans did nothing to get rid of the stink. It got worse when we opened a closet to try and unpack - the stench inside was absolutely overwhelming - no WAY were we storing anything in there! The furniture, described as "antique" is actually just falling apart - mismatched beds, giant splinter on ever wooden surface, the bracket securing one on the headboards was pulling out of the wall leaving exposed screws and nails... and questionable garbage (something wrapped in kleenex) had been left under the beds. Also the room was FULL of mosquitoes, which was perplexing given the lack of windows. We arrived late, so had no choice but to suck it up for one night. When I took a shower and the ENTIRE room flooded (tile floor, water pooled under the TV, electrical cables hanging down), we decided to get the heck out the next morning. When I went to talk to the hotel staff, his only solution was to offer me a can of RAID. Ugggh.
