Hotel Arrecife de Coral

The staff were wonderful and the hotel came with everything you would need. It’s close to all the central things in the city and it felt very safe and clean.

What a cute little hotel. The outside area is adorable. There are lots of amenities. Close walking distance to restaurants and shopping. My room was clean and the staff is friendly and accommodating.

The pros:  clean , nice grounds and well located hotel in San Cristobal de las Casas.  I found the room spacious - it even had 2 beds - so confused by another review posted about small rooms.  I did find the beds to be 'extra firm' ... pretty much across the board in Mexico in general.  Breakfast was nice EXCEPT ... this is the con ... seriously the worst coffee I've ever had!  This was the general consensus of people I was with and general comments.  This was surprising as we are in Chiapas ... known for it's coffee!  People often walked several blocks into the town to get the 'good stuff'.  The other con was most distressing.   The supervisor (a middle aged woman with short tight curly hair) was absolutely atrocious to the staff.  Then, she corners and interupts  guests to DEMAND tips, quite rudely.  I seriously doubt the actual staff get the tips based on her behavior.  

Nice hotel with clean/spacious rooms and bathroom near the Zócalo (city center). The staff is friendly and they offer a great breakfast. It is a five minute walk from the hotel to the bars and restaurants in center of San Cristobal.

This is a lovely hotel, and such a welcome situation surrounding a garden and fountain. A very welcome prospect after Mexico City. We had two nights here and plenty of time to see the sights of this attractive mountain town.We were told it would be chilly, but it was very pleasant. Our room was compact but clean and comfortable. The breakfast was good, and the staff helpful and friendly.

I had room 310 on the upper level of the hotel (there are two floors).  It is nice size with two double beds, a flat screen TV  (no remote in room). Wi-fi is best at non-peak times.   It is a well-used room and could use some attention:

* the rod from the towel rack in the bathroom is missing
* the pull-out clothesline is missing the  cord - so it  is non-useable
 * there are only three non-removable hangers; the fourth is missing

If you stay here, bring a power strip. There is only one electrical outlet in the room, thankfully it is by the bed.

Be sure to close the window in the bathroom as it gets very cold at night (I was there in November).  There are ample extra blankets available on the shelf above the clothes rack.

I do want to mention that the staff is very honest.I left my travel money out by mistake while I was gone for the day, and it was not touched.

There were two groups staying on the property and the restaurant prepared a breakfast buffet for 95 pesos that included everything, except the tip.

The tacos restaurant across the street is excellent. It has an open kitchen, friendly waiters and a good menu. Portions are huge.

Good hotel centrally in the city. You can find your way easy. It was busy in town, but in the hotel you can sleep quiet. Big rooms, good facilities, nice personnel. They think with the guests. Clean and tidy. We spent two nights with pleasure

The hotel facility is good. The rooms are very moist and cold! Makes you sick! We needed to cover up with like 4 blankets.Moreover, we stayed there 6 nights and on last day I asked if we can checkout half hour late cause we were very tired from our 20 hour tour the day before, they said no!Then we left the luggages with the management in the luggage room, they said they charge for every piece of luggage! It's not about the value of the money (we left more than that amount as a tip for the luggage helper).. but I have never seen that kind of service in any hotel, and I have been in plenty. From a hotel that is relatively expensive compared to Mexico, I didn't expect that kind of service and it's not justified!

A delightful hotel in an excellent location

Nice property; some rooms need attention

Nice hotel near the city center

Visiting San Cristobal during our round trip

Two nights here as part of a group tour. Well located to walk into the centre of town with a nice garden (pool is decorative though and not for a swim)(One star awarded for location)
Requires a large dollop of TLC to bring it up to a 3 star level 
Thin, worn bedsheets and towels.
Very small bathroom area. Fixed shower. ,Hairdryer decides itself if it works or not. No rubbish bin in the room itself, only in the bathroom..
No chair to sit on! No heating. spare blankets available.
Had to ask for toilet paper as only end of roll provided and no spare (even on day 2)
Day 1 very good buffet breakfast. Day 2.Leess guests poor buffet breakfast.
WARNING: Very close to a function room where loud celebrations/music /samba etc  echoed out into the night until 01.15 am. .One would assume not every night but.......!
