Art 64 Hotel Boutique - Adults Only

“Stop looking and stay at this beautiful hotel in central Merida”

Have you ever wanted to stay at a place that was actually as beautiful as the online photos? Then stay here and you’ll have a lovely time.

Have you ever wanted to stay at a place that was actually as beautiful as the online photos? Then stay here and you’ll have a lovely time. The moment we stepped through the door and into the spacious courtyard, it felt heavenly. Everything is so clean, relaxing, peaceful, and quiet. And because there are only 9 units (that’s your cue to book your room soon), it never feels crowded. The location is absolutely outstanding, a 10 minute walk to Plaza Grande (where the big cathedral is), a 10 minute walk the other way to the start of Paseo de Montejo, close to restaurants/bars, and close to plazas like Santa Ana, Santa Lucia, and Santiago. We stayed here for a wonderful week. Every morning we enjoyed complimentary breakfast served to us at our own table by the pool – fruit, toast, juice, coffee, tea, yogurt with granola (eggs are available too) – while we were serenaded with birdsong. The staff was very friendly and most spoke some English, but they’re happy to practice Spanish with you too. Juan, Corina, Andre are a few of the names I remember, but everyone was nice. They will help you schedule day tours with a company called Edith’s Tours if you like – we took 2 tours with this company and were pleased with the service. Security is great, and they have 24/7 front desk service for your convenience. Someone is always available if you have questions or want restaurant recommendations. Minimal kitchen supplies (like a microwave, etc.) are available but we didn’t use them – there are too many great restaurants in the area. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and clean and located on the second floor (I think most if not all of the rooms are upstairs, no elevator). We received daily maid service with fresh towels. The cable TV was huge, the air conditioning was wonderful, the Wi-Fi worked great, and the water was hot. The king size bed was comfortable. Now there were some small cracks around the window and door, and a couple of mosquitoes came in, but it was not a major issue. A few random observations: The swimming pool was chilly in the first week of February. This is an adults-only boutique hotel. The hotel will supply you with two 500-ml bottles of water per day (remember, don’t drink the tap water in Merida). The candy dish in the lobby was a nice touch. You will love Merida, and you will love staying at Art 64. I wish we were there right now.

Art 64 Hotel Boutique is centrally located and especially close to the Parque de Santa Lucía. Our travel plans changed and we decided to spend one night here. The grounds are well kept and despite being in a relatively busy area it is very quite and tranquil. The staff was professional, friendly, and helpful. Rooms are basic but well appointed; you could certainly enjoy a multi-day experience here, especially with the beautiful pool and communal kitchen/lounge spaces. Light breakfast is nice and there is a terrific bakery a few doors down.

“Nice hotel with drawbacks”

I want to share some important points about staying at this hotel. It is a nice hotel in a good location but…1) bed sheets are poor quality and sleep very warm, 2) the outside chairs by the pool and breakfast tables are very uncomfortable and not good for anyone with back issues, 3) if you have an… more

I want to share some important points about staying at this hotel. It is a nice hotel in a good location but…1) bed sheets are poor quality and sleep very warm, 2) the outside chairs by the pool and breakfast tables are very uncomfortable and not good for anyone with back issues, 3) if you have any concerns about falling, the shower in our (first) room had three steps up and were very slippery, 4) our room was not serviced until 3:00-3:30pm each day (6 days), 5) outside cushions had tiny ants.
