WHERE TO STAY IN MÉRIDA DOWNTOWN

From Paseo de Montejo to the Parque la Ermita, Mérida downtown is a place where you can breathe history and traditions in every step you take. ​Only by contemplating the old colonial houses and buildings​, you can picture yourself back in time where the Spaniards established during the Mayan period.

This part of the city is full of excellent places to chill and have fun like coffee shops, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, museums and shops where you can find traditional and handmade clothes, shoes, hammocks and much more. 

For those reasons, we highly recommend staying in the downtown area of Mérida. Don’t you worry mi amigo, we are here to help you find the place you need.
