Xbalamque was an excellent choice. My boyfriend and I (in our early to mid-twenties), stayed here for one week. We arrived December 13 and stayed through the 20th. During this time we experienced hospitality in it's truest form. We were wandering the hotel lobby area when we followed noise out to the terrace. It was filled with music and laughter.... More

When we have to be in Cancun we always stay at Xbalamque. Rooms are clean and the whole entourage of the hotel is very nicely designed. For the past year management have improved a lot of things in the hotel, renovation of rooms and paintings on the wall. Service of the staff also improved. The only thing I dont like... More

Actually below average. If you want a truly old school Mexican experience, stay here. As you enter, it's like stepping into a set for an old Mexican black and white movie from the '60s. The employees are nice, but don't expect too much in the way of accommodations other than simple and basic. It is air conditioned (wall unit) and... More

We stayed in Xbalamque Cancun for four nights together and we aren't satisfied with it. Reception is nice, and people from the staff are friendly but the room and overall feelings from the hotel arenť good. Rooms are very dark with old air conditioning (maybe is better not to turn on it), floors looks too old and dirty. The bathroom... More

I really enjoyed my stay at the Xbalamque in January. I have traveled throughout Mexico, and live in Cancun, so I am very aware of what is out there. When I was having work completed in my home I needed to get away from the noise and picked this hotel. So glad I did........inexpensive, clean, beautiful artwork everywhere, very nice... More

Xbalambe was a basic, but very pleasant hotel. Service was excellent and friendly. The location was perfect as it is situated in the hart of Old Cancun close to the busy life of the town. The Hotel has a lovely pool with a charming outside area where you can eat your breakfast and lounge around when you have nothing better... More

Of course, the hotel Xbalamque is not on the beach, however it is conveniently located just a few blocks from the central bus station, which can be reached from the airport for only 42 pesos if you take the public bus instead of a taxi. The hotel is clean and comfortable with firm beds and there is a theater and... More

We booked this hotel as a 4* and couldn't believe our eyes when we arrived. The hotel is very dark, mainly because most of the lights in the lobby and hallways were broken. Our first room was a death trap with exposed electrical wiring, broken bathroom mirror, and a big chunk of broken glass near the bed. The rooms are... More
