Hotel Hacienda Los Laureles Spa

The hotel is absolutely gorgeous - an incredible garden and lovely pool but the rooms are a bit tired looking and not as plush as in the photos - there was no coffee or tea in the room, the restaurant was fine in the morning but not great for dinner and in general there weren’t many staff around. Having said that, taxis into town were quick and it was amazing having it as an oasis to come back to after being in the center.

We came here for our honeymoon, the staff were excellent and attentive. The taxi was a short taxi ride (roughly 100 pesos / £5 / $6). Which was really worth it for such a beautiful hotel and gardens, including the pool area. The hotel kindly upgraded us for our honeymoon and left us a bottle of bubbly and petals on the bed ready for our arrival. We also got a very relaxing massage each during our stay, which cost around £40 each. 5* would definitely recommend.

Lovely place to do mathematics for a week. The restaurant planned different meals each day so that we got a taste of Oaxaca. The hotel is about an hour walk to the city center, but the walk is pleasant and interesting.

The hotel is about 20 min outside the city Center. The rooms are clean but not very attractive. The breakfast in the garden restaurant was great. Staff is very nice. Personally, next time we are back in Oaxaca we will stay more centrally located.

Great place to rest in Oaxaca. Very friendly staff. Comfortable beds, spacious rooms.

My husband and I ended up staying here for close to two weeks! It was the perfect seclusion we wanted. Thai hotel is an oasis with amazing heartfelt service and attention. The room we stayed in was near the pool away from the main hotel and dining. We were so comfortable that we ordered room service (great food!!) and stayed in some days to fully relax and recharge. We will definitely stay here again! The owners are lovely people and even helped with my DHL shipment. The team go an extra mile to make guests feel at home here. We have nothing but positives to share about this hotel :)

Hacienda Los Laureles is a beautiful property. No, it isn't right in the core of the historic centro. and No, you can't walk out its gates and walk to the Zocalo in five minutes. But, it is an absolutely beautiful property, which is a 10 minute cab ride north of the zocalo, in the area called San Felipe. The very friendly and helpful staff could always arrange a taxi to pick us up in a about ten minutes, for the ten minute drive to the Centro. We never had any problem getting a taxi to return to the hotel, from one of the "taxi stands" in town. All of the rooms look out onto a wonderful central garden. The breakfast/lunch/dining area also looks into the garden.

We had a wonderful time. The food, services, beautiful grounds and lovely rooms were perfect. The spa offers many services. I enjoyed a great facial and a super massage. The pool is warm and surrounded by the most lovely flowers with humming birds everywhere, I would highly recommended this hotel to anyone visiting the amazing historic city of Oaxaca. The taxi ride into the central city is approximately 10 miniues away and costs 60 pesos and the staff were so helpful in sorting out day trips into town. So reasonable. When my husband was feeling poorly due to a change in our normal diet, the staff cooked him special food and he was better in a day. Our stay was such a treat from beginning to end. Thanks!!
