The priming room was amazing with the balcony. The room was just as posted. The staff were very courteous. The restaurant in/attached to the hotel served excellent food and the staff in both spoke English. The cleaning staff was very thorough. The grounds were well kept. We would definitely stay here again.

The property is beautiful with a great courtyard. They had a guitar player in the mornings, which added to the ambiance. The pool is very nice and well-maintained, with many thoughtful touches throughout the hotel. Although it is an older hotel, it is impeccably cared for. The rooms and beds are comfortable, and the staff is super helpful. The location is perfect, situated on Calle 60 between La Plaza Grande and Parque Santa Lucia. Despite being on a busy street, we couldn't hear the city noise at night. Overall, it was a great experience.

Casa del Balam is our “go to” hotel in Merida because of its perfect location near the outstanding Plaza Grande with all its restaurants, shops and cultural events. We love the historic charm of the hotel, its pool area and its restaurant.

Air conditioning was broken with temperatures over 100 degrees. Baby couldn’t sleep, I had to go sleep by pool cause I couldn’t breath in the heat. Nice staff but the building and rooms need a lot of work.
