Casa Santa Lucia

This hotel is a little gem, probably the best hotel we stayed at during our trip to Mexico. The lobby and the rooms are beautifully decorated, each room showcasing pieces of local craftmanship from a different town in Chiapas. We had a room upstairs which was quiet and very comfortable. The breakfast is very good and they were very kind to offer us a packed lunch instead of breakfast for the last day as we were leaving quite early. Conveniently located, you can walk anywhere. Super recommended.

Just returned home from our visit to San Cristobal and our wonderful stay at Casa Santa Lucia. The hotel was located just an easy, short walk from the busy center of town making it an ideal location for exploring the shops, churches and museums. The front door is kept locked with staff always in the reception and everything about the hotel felt extremely safe. Our room, Zinacantan, was spacious and very comfortable. All of the rooms are beautifully decorated with examples of the textiles and amber from the Chiapas area. Breakfast was wonderful with many choices and generous portions. All of the staff there were extremely helpful in recommending places to eat, and very patient with our limited Spanish. Freddie, the manager, was a great help in arranging our tour of the canyon and taxi back to the airport. We would highly recommend Casa Santa Lucia and look forward to a future visit!

This is an excellent boutique hotel with only nine rooms and an easy walk to all the historical sights.

A truly beautiful place that felt very Mexican with lovely local textiles, decor, and wonderful central covered courtyard for breakfasts. All the staff were very helpful and they assisted in arranging two of our best exploration trips in the area. The place is within easy walking distance of the central pedestrian walkways that cross the city and that are central to sites, restaurants, and local markets and artisans. One of the best places we stayed during our month-long trip.

Gem of a Boutique Hotel What a beautiful, cozy, eclectic find this was! We loved it. The staff members were extremely gracious, the food (breakfast) was great, the room was so well done, the beds were great… we genuinely loved everything about it - zero complaints. They even had a parking area kitty-corner to the hotel where we could securely park our car. Loved it, and highly recommend it. Excellent boutique hotel!

We loved our 6 night stay at Casa Santa Lucia. The location is perfect because you can walk to restaurants, shops and points of interest. The staff was very welcoming, check-in was easy and we were able to see and choose our room (Magdalenas). At check-in we were given a map of the city with recommendations for dining, shopping, etc. The restaurant recommendations were excellent. Breakfast was included and it wasn’t just a continental breakfast. You had your choice of different egg dishes with and without meat. Bread and pan dulce to start. Breakfast is from 8 to 11 and one morning we had an early tour but they allowed us to be seated at 7:30 so we could eat before leaving for the day. They are so accommodating. They even booked several tours for us. The front door is always locked but you can come and go as you please. The rooms are beautifully decorated, very clean and the bed and pillows were comfortable. All the rooms face the courtyard where breakfast is served. They even have a bar with beer, wine and cocktails. There is some street noise in the morning which is to be expected because you are in the city center. The windows facing the street don’t open except the one in the bathroom and the one facing the courtyard. There is no A/ C or ceiling fan but you really don’t need it. They do offer portable fans. We loved San Cristobal and would definitely stay here again and recommend this boutique hotel to family and friends.
