Nice religious decorations. Rooms are little small, but are comfortable. Pretty good location - can walk to most downtown attractions. This hotel has a LOT of rules. You can't bring guests or alcohol into the hotel, along with a long list of other rules that are prominently displayed in the room. This made it feel a little more like youth... More

Nice hotel, good food. Bed was hard and I was sick so I wish it had been softer. Every employee I spoke with was nice. Right down the road from santa domingo, and lots of restaurants, cafes, and art stores. I'd stay again, hopefully in a softer bed. Great view from the roof as well.

Great location, friendly staff and excellent food. The courtyard was a great place to relax after a long day of exploring. Unfortunately, the room was quite warm. The fan did not do an adequate job of keeping it cool, and as the balcony doors opened right above the dining area, and were right next to my bed, I wasn't comfortable... More

Casa del sotano is in a great location. A short walk from the town centre so nice and close without being too noisy. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast is not included so you have to spend a little extra, but it is worth it. Our only problem was that the room was quite hot and stuffy. There... More

It is a traditional style hotel with an inner courtyard and the rooms surrounding the courtyard. Reception is open 24 hours a day and the area seems safe, i walked at 5am back from the Santo Doming Church and it was fine. The restaurant area for breakfast is outside and the breakfast choices were traditional and international. They have a... More

Colonial era decor and charm. Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent bed and little noise, had great sleeps. Lacks in-room wi-fi, although it's available on the restaurant patio and lobby area. Lonely Planet promised parking, but they do not offer it. However, my motorcycle was accommodated in the lobby!

In a perfect location for exploring Oaxaca. Warm friendly staff help you feel at home. Oaxaca is one of my favourite places in Mexico and this is one of my favourite hotels - it's not pretentiousj and there are no flat screen TVs but feels genuinely loved and well cared for and I would definitely go back.

My wife and I stayed at the Casa del Sotano for 3 nights at the beginning of February. Good location,reasonably priced, very friendly hotel. Small and quaint with rooms overlooking tiny ornamental patios with those on the upper level also having good mountain views. the upper rooms are of adequate size with tiny bathroom facilities. Room 23 is quite dark... More
