This is our Budget pick in San Cristóbal de las Casas. It suits travellers who care more about price and location than about extras. At €45.23 a night it costs well under half of our other two picks, and guests rate it 8.8 out of 10.
Families can look at it too. The property lists family rooms, and it carries a family tag in our data. Check the room layout and bed setup for your dates, since room size has not been assessed.
Skip it if you are a light sleeper. Guests say the walls are thin and some sound carries between rooms, even with strict quiet hours in place. Skip it too if you want a hotel with a long list of facilities. The listed ones are free Wi-Fi, a garden and a terrace.
Location and getting around
The address is 46 Francisco León, in the area the provider calls the top-rated area of San Cristóbal de Las Casas. The location score is 9.1 out of 10, which is high.
Guests describe a short walk to the town centre and the tourist walkways, while the hotel itself sits on a quiet street. That combination is the main reason people like it.
We do not have walking times to specific sights for this hotel, and none have been verified. Before you book, open the address on a map and check the walk to the places you plan to see. Parking is not listed among the facilities, so confirm it with the hotel if you are arriving by car.
What guests say
The score is 8.8 out of 10 from 625 reviews. In the provider list it sat joint ninth of 13 eligible properties on score, so several places in town rate higher. Most of those cost more.
Two things come up again and again. The first is location, close to the centre but quiet. The second is the staff, described as friendly, attentive and available 24 hours a day to help with local advice.
The main complaint is noise. Quiet hours are enforced, which many guests appreciate, but thin walls mean you may still hear neighbours.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
The reference price was €45.23 a night, about €90 for two nights. That is a reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, not a live quote. Check today's price for your own dates.
The sample median in town was €74.84 a night, so this hotel came in about 40% below it. Our Best Value pick, Sombra del Agua, scores 9.1 and was €117.32 a night. Our Luxury pick, Casa Santa Lucia, is a 5-star hotel scoring 9.4 at €149.29 a night.
Breakfast is not confirmed in our data. Check whether it is included in your rate or offered at extra cost.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 13 hotels in San Cristóbal de las Casas. Casa Azabache had the lowest eligible reference price once the upscale pick was set aside, and it still holds an 8.8 score from a large number of reviews.
It is not the best-rated place in town. It earns its spot because the gap in price is large and the gap in score is small.
Before you book
Check the cancellation terms, since they have not been assessed. Ask about breakfast. If noise matters, request a room away from shared areas and pack earplugs. Confirm the opening times of the garden and terrace, and any fees, for your dates.
Room size and renovation condition have not been assessed either, so read recent reviews and look at the room photos before paying.
