What people say

Merida was our first destination, and this was our first trip to the peninsula. We were not prepared for how run-down and chaotic the city would be. Driving a rental car around, trying to find our hotel and then the parking lot was very confusing and a little bit scary at first. Then we entered the courtyard for the hotel, and found a peaceful oasis inside. The hotel is very open and light, and our room looked right out onto the pool through one-way glass. The Dolores Alba is charming and .
all reviews » Near the historic center where you can enjoy a touch of history (able to walk there, but just one block too far to really be in the vivid part). Rooms are very spacious and clean. Breakfast is ok but quite simple, nothing special. Very friendly staff that speaks English very well. Parking lot is definitely a bonus (free and totally private and thus very safe to leave your car). - breakfast was good and plenty of choice - swimming pool (Merida is a very hot and humid city) - Airconditioning + ceiling fan - The old part of the hotel is like a large hacienda, very nice decorated - Clean large room - Easy to book a tour to surrounding archeological sites like Uxmal and Chitzen Itza - Elevator - Free private parking if you come by car - Laundry service. Located close to historic center.. Nice friendly atmosphere with all rooms facing the outside pool....also breakfast is included which saves time and money....reception is always helpful. Also the ability to use their laundromat is a big plus if one is touring...they also have a sister hotel of the same name at Chichen Itza. Excellent hotel, discreet and well located, the new part is better than the original by size. Clean, good service and reasonable prices, has parking, breakfast included (discrete, but good), I highly recommend it, good thing is that they accept american express. Excellent for the value, great breakfast and the location is only 2 blocks to "downtown" where all the stores, etc. are. A lovely courtyard and pool to spend your afternoon siestas when the heat can be unbearable. Rooms are alol air conditioned. An unappealing front door opened into a delightful hotel with a large inner court, with swimming pool, well suited for relaxing in a busy city. Rooms were a good size and a very good breakfast included makes this excellent value. the hotel has its own style, different from any other hotels we stayed in Mexico; I liked it very much; room was big enough for 4 persons; kids loved the pool; staff was very nice and helpfull; location close to the city center. The atmosphere and decor are wonderful - Frida Kahlo prints all around the public areas. Good clean pool. Excellent, friendly and helpful staff. Just a short walk to Zocalo and near many shops. Perfect place for one night before we flew out early the next morning. Basic but clean. The pool looked nice but small. Lcose to downtown. English-speaking receptionist. This hotel is in a good location and offers value. I would recommend it and stay again. Nice to start your day with a free breakfast and it was a notch above mose. The feel of the hotel was very Colonial and very different on the inside to what it looked like on the outside. Merida is a fantastic place and very pretty. Nice hotel with friendly staff. Pool is nice and clean and can be used until 10 pm (towels provided by the reception). Location is close to the centre. My wife and I have stayed at Delores Alba on vacation the past 4 years. We like the location, friendly staff, and how clean they keep it. Very central location and made us welcome even though we arrived after midnight. Possible to park car. Clean and good air conditioning. Very typical, colonial, private parking, Romantic, swimming pool, very well situated nothing to say, I recommend this place. Original Colonial patio style with rooms set around a courtyard. Large swimming pool 5 minute walk from Merida central plaza. The hotel is beautiful, the staff is helpful and kind. The paintings on the walk a and the antiq furniture and decoration. Pleasant surprise from understated exterior,lovely lobby,oasis pool area. Comfortable beds.Good breakfast. The hotel had great features: pool, free internet, laundry room. The staff was friendly and helpful. Nice pool, good breakfast, clean rooms, quite close to the centre (15min walking to the zocalo). Felt at home here. Comfy beds for weary travellers, surprisingly quiet considering location. - big and clear room - good value for money - not far from airport - own cover parking area. Convenient locatiopool and amenities Friendly staff Beer, water & breakfast available. The continental Yucatán breakfast with local breads and fruits. Close to Merida downtown. The staff were very helpful, the room spacious and comfortable. It was really good value. Located close to the centro with free parking. Large pool in old historic building. Location, size of room, beautiful appearance, very helpful staff, lovely paintings. The staff was helpful and friendly. Restaurant food was inexpensive and decent. Nice rooms and fine pool area. Hotel is located close to the city center. Price/quality very good. Staff very friendly and helpfull. Great pool, super value, free internet, friendly staff. Pleasant enclave, close to plaza, on site parking. Great city to visit, great free breakfast. Location to downtown and airport. everything was just great. Pretty luxureus hotel. price, decor. The hotel delivers exactly what is promised on paper - a private bathroom and an AC in the room. The price is nearly half of that of competing hotels. Reall good value for the money. Nice facilities, incuding garden style swimming pool area. Like an oasis within Merida. Staff was nice and helpful. It was very nice to have a pool. The location was good for seeing things in the city. I liked having the breakfast included. Positives include a clean, if basic room. Good location within walking distance of the main square and a nice swimming pool. comfortable beds, big room. Did not have hair dryer in room but could borrow one from front desk. The pool and the premium room were very nice. Close-ish to centre of town. Good value and in a good location close to Centro. Nice pool covinient to downtown. Friendly and helpful staff. The pool. Location. The restaurant food, while very cheap, is also absolutely awful. My daughter couldn't even eat the french fries. And it is closed on Sundays, so plan ahead. - The tour information was not complete (we got more than we asked for). I place this as a negative sound because most of the receptionists didnt speak English although they tried hard to be helpfull. As this was good value for money I cannot complain about anything....I Would stay there again and recommend this hotel to friends.. The Internet wifi signal very poor, very cold the water of the pool. Nothing! A lovely place. Not a major negative but a very busy, four long block road between the hotel and the downtown activity required careful attention to both pedestrians and road traffic. breakfast could be better. Some travellers might be put off by the street being a bit run down, but once inside the door, the hotel is lovely. Poor internet connection. Breakfast wasn't brilliant. Breakfast is not really good. Sometimes the area can be noisy at night. Swimming pool was being cleaned so we couldn't use it. Toilet cistern very slow to refill. Could be problematic if a resident is sick. The entrance door is old and scary! It gives a bad first impresión. But when you open it, your first idea changes. The fake plants and flowers. Pool could do with a little TLC. The bed covers were pretty old. The shower pressure was almost non-existent. The sink was very poorly designed and it was hard to use. air-conditionning is old and so very noisy at night. - xxx. Quality of breakfast could be better. Had room in old part of building and it was small. The breakfast could have been better. Terrible internet connection No place in the bathroom to put a shaving kit/toiletries. The breakfast was the same every day and the coffee weak. A lot traffic just outside the hotel. Hotel staff had only limited English skills. Nothing!. Would like more towels, more varied breakfast. The urban neighborhood around the hotel was not the best, but you left it behind once you wanted through the door. Asked staff in evening to order taxi for 5am to the airport. Then at 455 came down and guy said he just called the taxi and they would be 10 pr 15 minutes late is that okay. We get nervous with 10 or15 minytes late as that coul mean 20 or 26. He didn't offer to call another company so we hailed a cab outside. no irons. distance from city center. Everything is ancient and the neighborhood is not great. A bit far from the historical centre. Breakfast was nice, but the coffee was only water almost. It is really like 2 completely different hotels. The old section (where I stayed) is like a 2 star hotel and then new part (where a friend stayed) was like a 3+ star. The size, brightness, and quality of the room was completely different. I think this needs to be more clear. Only complaint with the room was that the shower didn't always have hot water and no wi-fi despite being advertised in the room. Internet was only available in reception. Breakfast was average although we were quite late down so perhaps we missed the best of it. poor location - 3-4 blocks on the wrong side of the main square. no restaurants nearby. Needed to walk 5 blocks just to get to restaurant area. Area of hotel is run down and commercial. Pool is not heated and is so cold that no one uses it. two of the women at the front desk not very friendly. The young woman at front desk was friendly. The breakfast is the most horrible we have ever had. They don't care about their guests if they offer rubbish as this. It spoiled our visit to the hotel and we brought in our own breakfast on day two. - Not getting our wake up call. Thankfully they called the room to say that the cab was there. - cold breakfast and hardly any food available. Bed hard. Elevator not functioning for the last two days of my stay. Had to bring luggage down three flight of stairs. The old rooms. Don't book a room in the old part of the hotel. It's like at hostel. It's old.
