The hotel was simplistically elegant. The room was perfectly outfitted with all travelers needs, beautifully designed and the bedding was luxurious. The breakfast was delectable, generous, and impeccably presented. The small pool is actually the perfect size for a short lap and a cool down. Amazing place! Really look forward to being back there in a couple of days!

Very pretty boutique hotel. Pool was very clean. Great customer service. Great location 10 min walking to the gastronomy 47 where lots of restaurants are located also walking distance to the Centro of Merida. Hotel block is very quiet nothing right by the hotel which makes it very peaceful not noisy at all you can hear the bird’s chirping instead of people and cars passing bye. The food at the restaurant was very good . Bedroom was very clean as well as the hotel. Would stay here again for sure

We had a fantastic stay at Ya’ax Hotel. If you’re looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway, this is the perfect spot. The front desk and service staff were amazing—always helpful and welcoming. I especially loved the pool, which was perfect for cooling off on a hot day. The food at the hotel was excellent as well. Plus, the location is great—close to downtown but still feels secluded. Overall, a wonderful experience with warm and friendly staff.

This is a pretty hotel. We visited in low season and it was very quiet, but it was a good starting point for a number of activities in and outside of Merida. The staff were very kind and made us a packed lunch to take on our various excursions and travel to the next destination.

The hotel staff are very nice and helpful; and the breakfast from Chef Luis is excellent. The hotel is located equidistant between Parque Santa Lucia and the Plaza Grande where there is a good selection of restaurants and shopping. I felt very comfortable at this hotel and the surrounding neighborhood.
