Taller de Juan - Casa Hotel

I had a very comfortable stay in this boutique hotel in San Cristobal. The design angle is well executed, with an old workshop/residential space repurposed into a courtyard hotel filled with modern art and quiet places where you can relax in a shady garden. The rooms are large with very high ceilings and a genuine sense of space. Despite considerable jet lag, I slept really well here. I was busy most days visiting and photographing carnival celebrations in nearby parts of Chiapas and it was always a pleasure to come back to this hotel, The front office staff were very friendly and helped with laundry and transfers to and from Tuxtla. I also had a few relaxing messages in the small spa room just off the garden. I ate in the restaurant. I'm a little limited by being a fish eating vegetarian, however I enjoyed the fish and pasta choices and the deserts were so large, I usually kept half for breakfast. I can recommend the banana bread for this precise purpose! A few things to bear in mind. The Taller is close to the Na Bolom Museum, however is a healthy 15 to 20 minute walk from the main sightseeing/eating/shopping areas, so bring some track shoes for the cobbles and the broken pavements. Finally, the Taller partly faces onto a narrow road that carries a fair amount of slow rumbling traffic during the day. At some point in an optimistic future, San Cris will greatly extend it's pedestrian streets. Until then, some of the Taller's most impressive rooms may face the impact of traffic noise. I was happier relocating to a room deeper inside the hotel that was quieter.

I really enjoyed the hotel a lot ! It’s very charming , the rooms are very nice !the taste is impeccable ! The breakfast delicious I really felt like I was at home away from home . The staff is really nice . I highly recommend !

El lugar es mágico. La ambientación del hotel con todos sus detalles, la atención amigable y servicio cálido del personal y la ubicación hicieron mi estancia maravillosa. Cada rincón está lleno de detalles, la comida en el hotel es deliciosa y está a una cuadra de la calle principal para salir a turistear
