Perfect Home Base - Stayed Here 8 Nights During Our 17 night Yucatan Peninsula Vacation
We loved our stay!! My wife & I were here in Merida from March 4th through the 12th, midway in our trek across the Peninsula. Some context: We sandwiched the culturally enriching/intellectually stimulating stretch of our vacation between 2 bookends of beach-time at an all-inclusive in beautiful Playa Del Carmen. After 2 nights in PDC, we drove to Chiquilá, parked the car & hopped on a passenger ferry to spend a couple days beaching in Isla Holbox before ferrying back to Chiquilá & our rental car. From there we visited the Mayan Ruins of Ek Balam & Chichen Itza with an evening in Valladolid in between. From the Chichen Itza ruins we visited Cenote Ik Kil for a photo Op & to cool off...then drove 80 miles west to our what would be our home base for the next 8 nights...: ....the Hilton Garden Inn Merida. LOCATION: The Hotel is in the "North" part of town. Aside from "Centro", "North" is generally considered to be where Merida's more affluent residential neighborhoods (& the better restaurants & stores that support them) are located. We knew that this fairly new hotel was built above a (fairly new) mall & wondered if that would turn out to be a liability......NOT AT ALL!! Free parking is provided in a covered parking lot attached to the Mall. You can pull up to the front of the hotel to unload luggage (like at most hotels) if you want to, but we found it more convenient to do a "One & Done" by pulling our rental car directly into the free single level parking garage (attached to the mall/hotel) & into a parking space VERY near another mall entrance. Because shoppers are constantly coming & going, good spaces open up regularly. The hotel's elevator is just inside the mall entrance. From there, the Lobby is one button-push away. It should be noted that we experienced no noticeable street or mall noise from our 6th floor hotel room. The multi-level mall (below the 6 floor hotel) is small but well appointed, well laid out, & still looks sparkly new...donning many external ground floor storefront & restaurant entrances around its perimeter...& many more from within. Restaurants like TGI Fridays, Starbucks, VIPS, & Johnny Rockets were little more than an elevator ride away from our room...as is a comfortable cinema with movies in English...& a Walmart (great for picking up snacks, miscellania, & for stocking the hotel room fridge). There is also a convenient money exchange across the street that we used before leaving when were were running low on pesos, & a very nearby gas station...& if, unlike us, your not driving a vehicle, the ADO Altabrisa bus station is 2 tenths of a mile away & will take you to/from the airport or to almost any city on the Peninsula in style. Uber is super-cheap & reliable in Merida & pulls up to the hotel's front door...We Ubered a lot within Merida rather than navigate the city, fight traffic, or find parking...I think, for example, its less than 3 USD to Merida's old colonial Centro neighborhoods using Uber. THE STAFF: We found the staff to be friendly, outgoing, & professional....and fluent in English A real standout was "Milo" (short for Ermilo, I think), our bellman, who befriended us upon arrival and who's resourceful help & practical advice throughout our stay was greatly appreciated. It's very possible that he doubles as the concierge!!? He is very knowledgeable about Merida & Yucatan so please seek him out before adventuring too far out the door. The man who checked us in (I wish I could remember his name) also played a big role in making our time here special by linking our back-to-back reservations together so we wouldn't have to check out & in again mid-stay, and by upgrading us to very spacious & quiet corner accommodations on the top floor. I think he's a manager because he had a trainee under his wing that evening. She was very pleasant as well. The waitstaff in the restaurant were attentive. The omelet chef aimed to please. Housekeeping was meticulous and left us personally written thank-you notes daily (for our tips). THE SUITE: Bright & clean...Everything still looks & smells brand new. One bedroom, 2 full bathrooms, another full size room with couch, table & chairs, desk & counter space. Very quiet. Good city view. Bed was comfortable. Good water pressure. Endless hot water. Room safe in closet. Iron. THE RESTAURANT: Although we mostly ate lunch & dinner off property, we enjoyed a couple good meals here with cocktails from their full bar...& several breakfasts as well. Ample Americano & Yucatecan menu options. I remember the Cochinita Pibil was a very tasty choice, as was the Sopa de Lima. Good Omelets. THE GYM: Cardio machines, a 2 cable/2 pully/2 weight-stack multi-gym like the ones found in many hotels, dumbbells & benches Used a couple times for the cable machine...suitable for vacation purposes. POOL & HOT TUB: Outside on the Lobby Level (at least 3 stories up seeing how the hotel is above the mall & the mall is at least 2 stories tall), the small pool & hot tub afford a nice city view, especially after dusk. Tables & chairs on the deck too. I think (but am not positive) that the hotel's restaurant & bar will serve food & drinks out to the pool deck. OUR ACTIVITIES DURING OUR STAY (& MAYBE IDEAS FOR YOURS): We unpacked & freshened up after check-in Wednesday evening before having dinner & drinks in the hotel restaurant. Thursday morning we drove a half hour north to Progreso for a beach day since we knew there'd be a cruise ship in town that day...Important: Many of the good seafood restaurants & bars at the beach in Progreso are open only on "Cruise ship days". Crabster is one, & has seating & service on the beach across the street from their restaurant, & 'tho a bit pricey for Mexico, it truly was a delicious indulgence to be able to dine on stone crab & imbibe libations on the beach on a beautiful day. We spent the better part of Friday, Saturday, & Sunday in Merida's old Spanish colonial Centro, just a cheap Uber ride away. Friday noon we ate queso relleno for lunch at Manjar Blanco...shopped & bought my wife an exquisite traditional Yuctecan/Mexican embroidered lady's blouse in a nearby boutique, explored the Centro...at night we hung out around Plaza Grande...there's an amazing gelateria adjacent to the park, & every Friday there's a free visually stunning multimedia presentation projected on the old cathedral (also adjacent to the park). We grabbed gelato to go & ate it in front row seats...Don't wait 'till showtime to get a seat...they fill up fast. After that event, we headed over to Rosas & Xocolate where we had reservations for rooftop fine dining, world class jazz, & kiwi mojitos...perfection! Saturday AM we breakfasted at Rosas & Xocolate, walked Paseo Montejo, lunched & imbibed Mezcal at La Negrita Cantina, returned to Plaza Grande to explore, hang out, eat more gelato & grab seats in front of the old cathedral again, this time to watch the exhibition of the ancient Mesoamerican ballgame that Merida puts on for free every Saturday evening. We polished off the evening with ambiance and a fine meal at La Recova Santa Lucia. Sunday morning we breakfasted in Centro, walked Paseo Montejo, & refreshed at a Starbucks along the way. Every Sunday morning they close Paseo Montejo, the main avenue in the historic center, to motor vehicles so people can bike & stroll its length. In the afternoon we hired a driver for 3 hours to show us the various neighborhoods of this city (of roughly a million people) & give us an idea of the rent pricing, property values, & the pros & cons of living in each. Then we freshened up at the hotel, grabbed a quick bite, & took in a movie (in English with Spanish subtitles) in the cinema in the mall below the hotel. Monday we drove 60 miles west to Celestún to enjoy the beach, drink mojitos, eat ceviche & extremely huge shrimp, & take a private guided boat tour of the Reserva de la Biosfera Ría Celestún where we viewed (up close) flamboynces of flamingos, great blue herons, ibises, cormorants, crocodiles, mangroves & more. Tuesday we hopped in our rental car again, this time heading 57 miles south to explore the Mayan ruins of Uxmal & when we returned we had supper at the hotel & then drinks at TGI Fridays in the mall at the hotel. Wednesday we slept in, hung out, went for a walk, changed some money (USD to MEX...started getting low on pesos), Ubered to & ate supper at Dal Baffo Ristorante Bar Italiano. Thursday morning we got an early start, checked out, & made the 4 hour drive back to our all inclusive in Playa Del Carmen where we spent the last 5 nights of our vacation.
Terrible experience at Lobby
It was the worst experience I ever had in a Hilton Honors hotel. I was always with a high expectation about the way this chain take care of me as a member of loyalty but did not happen this time. Zero empathy with the customer. I will never stay again on this specific hotel. They nevel told me about any benefit as HH member. Too bad that that I had a very high expectation about this stay with my way for anniversary.
Not very close to centro - 5 miles by my gps
It was a little confusing finding where to check in as you enter into the mall and then take an elevator up one floor. Rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff is helpful. As mentioned it is quite a distance to centro from the hotel.
Great place to stay
This hotel was a great find ! The staff was great from the front desk all the way to room service . Everyone was always smiling and helping out the Canadians:-) . I especially want to point out Ermilo he arranged car rentals ,shuttle times ,great restaurants and great local places to visit . It seemed like he was working non stop and smiling every minute . Then our room was cleaned spectacularly every day by Nelsy we had paper roses and swans made of towels like we were royalty and the room was spotless always. Great job by all the staff and we for sure will stay again next time in Merida Mx.
Reasonable Hotel
We stayed at this hotel as we had an early bus the following morning leaving from ADO Alta Brisa (about two blocks away). The checkin was easy. We were early and the room was not ready but they were prepared to keep our stuff while we went out to wander. The room was pretty standard hotel fare - it was clean, spacious, had a nice view over the city and good amenities. The price was reasonable. The beds were comfortable, linens and towels were OK, plenty of hot water and the room was quiet. We checked out the restaurant for breakfast the morning we checked out but all they offered was a buffet breakfast that was a bit pricey for our tastes. We had a bagel at the Starbucks on the ground floor. If you need to be in this area of the city, this hotel is a good choice.
