    Little gem in Cancun town
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Suite with Terrace
    • Stayed 3 nights

    I think I spent too much time in Cancun. I was there 3 nights before a flight and spent a day at markets, a day at the beach and then had this extra day with nothing really to do. I would have stayed only 2 nights.

    Lovely little property in the a great position in Cancun town. It is walking distance to the main tourist market, near a plaza that has evening stalls with food and shopping and walking distance to ADO station. It is off the main roads so is nice and quiet and it has a pool which is an added bonus after a day walking around the city.

    A great cozy hotel in city centre. We only had one night in Cancun before catching our flight and we decided to stay in the city rather than in the hotel area, and I'm very glad that we did! The hotel is right by the main square, restaurants, and bars but still very quiet. The room was comfortable and the host was lovely.

    This is the second time I've stayed in this hotel and I love it! It is small and charming- it feels like a home away from home! The service is excellent- the staff are very welcoming and friendly! It was very clean with a big comfy bed. The garden is beautiful! You feel like you're in an oasis amidst all the lovely plants. The pool is a perfect place to chill, with comfortable seats to hang out in. Breakfast is delicious and huge, made fresh and to order by the very lovely and friendly cook! It is in the perfect location- close to the 'real' part of Cancun- near the bus terminal, markets and bustling square.

    We stayed here for a night before flying from the airport but wished we could’ve stayed for longer. The breakfast was delightful and plentiful (and accommodated amazingly to gluten free), the room had a beautiful balcony overlooking the park and the pool area is super clean and relaxing. Lovely to have the small touches all thought about such as nice shampoo/conditioners and lovely handmade soaps supplied. The location was great in walking distance to restaurants/bars and a large Chedraui store. Most of all the property owner and all of the team were so kind and welcoming to us. They even offered us a late check out at no extra cost as our flight wasn’t until the evening, nothing felt too much to ask. Definitely recommend!!

    the place might need some renovation, everything looks quite used/old - even thought the friendly owners make up for it :)

    - Great location: walking distance to the ADO bus stop, easy to catch buses to the hotel zone (if you wanna see that part of town), easy to get to Puerto Juarez to take the ferry to Isla Mujeres, nice market just around the corner in the evenings - nice and friendly staff - awesome breakfast (great variety and they serve you a lot of food :)) - quiet

    The neighborhood looked a little difficult at first. Lots of trash and graffiti, but it’s safe. Mosquitos are a problem here. The pool is a little difficult to get out of for some, with no steps or stairs. The property is quiet but close to great restaurants and things to do.

    The property is extremely clean. The staff here are very very helpful and go above and beyond. The breakfasts are amazing and the pool is beautiful. It’s walking distance to the hotel zone and to the Parque de Palapas.

    Wonderful hosts, making it easy to check in, and very attentive to our needs. Location was superb, a block from the main plaza where we saw the 55th anniversary celebration of Cancun, close to ADO bus, too. The pool was divine, and room very comfortable. The breakfast was outstanding and we were able to relax to the fullest. Thanks Quetzal!

    Would be nice if they have a signboard… but that being said, they were nice to contact me via booking.com app to out if we were arriving and waited outside the hotel to ensure we could find them.

    The Quetzal is in a fantastic location that makes exploring Cancun effortless. It’s just steps from Parque de las Palapas—where locals gather for food, drinks, and a vibrant evening atmosphere—and only minutes from the ADO bus station, making airport transfers and day trips a breeze. What truly sets this place apart is the care and thoughtfulness of the people who run it. They go above and beyond to ensure a comfortable and welcoming stay. Fresh flowers were thoughtfully placed in the bathroom and around the room, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The breakfast was both sumptuous and healthy, clearly prepared with heart and intention—right down to the cappuccino topped with cinnamon instead of cocoa powder. Small details like these made my stay truly memorable.

    I liked everything

    This was a lovely, and comfortable place to stay during my week in Cancun earlier this month. There was incense and clean drinking water provided in my room, the breakfast and pool facilities were beautiful. The staff were extra helpful, especially Monica, Alberto and Luis, the chef, who went out to get me some painkillers when I was sick towards the end of the week. A great stay, would definitely stay again.
