Hotel Villa Mercedes Palenque

Everything. It was beautifully landscaped , the rooms were situated for privacy, and the pool was absolutely stunning, especially with the lighting at night. It was definitely one of the most attractive resort-like places we’ve stayed at. It was immaculately clean. Top marks to the hard-working cleaners.

Good location - we were driving ourselves and found it easily, left at the roundabout onto the ruins road, then you'll see the sign on the left after a few k. They initially gave me a room with a door adjoining another room (which isnt a hotel room in my opinion, its a shared apartment) which meant you could hear everything next door. To be fair once I informed reception this wasn't acceptable they moved me straight away. The grounds are very well kept and although I didnt use the pool it looked good, plenty of people were in it, the pool bar was never open however. I saw a lone howler monkey in a tree at the edge of the grounds which was cool, no macaws though (

The pool was a great place to hang out and Rogelio, the bartender, was absolutely great. The rooms were clean, beautiful and comfortable. The setting is great as well with the howler monkeys and scarlet macaws.

Excellent facilities

Beautiful grounds and a pleasant sizeable room. Close to the ruins and the town (if you have a car)
