One of the best hotels I've been to in Mexico so far! It's a very nice mixture of local culture and modern equipment/style and we felt very comfortable. It's quiet and central at the same time and the staff was very polite and welcoming - with for example a welcome and goodbye gift, a glas of Mezcal upon arrival, the offer of free bottled water several times during our stay and a candy bar in the common area. A nice breakfast in the patio is included, with the option to add some eggs or Mexican dishes for a bit of extra money. So we had an overall nice experience and can totally recommend the hotel :)

We had a truly exceptional stay at HOTEL LEPETIT. The location is unbeatable, making it easy to explore the area. The shower was fantastic, boasting incredible pressure that made every rinse feel luxurious. The Wi-Fi was lightning fast, perfect for staying connected. What really stood out, though, was the team. They were not only friendly but also genuinely helpful, going out of their way to answer and assist all our questions and ensure we had everything we needed.

The hotel location is excellent in Xochimilco, as you can walk to great coffee shops, bakery, and great restaurants. The Jacuzzi terrace and the Roof Top Terrace are awesome and with good views.The room size was great, and the facilities, room, and washroom were very clean. The coffee kitchen in the common area always had refreshments and freshly poured coffee. I highly recommend staying here, and I will definitely come back.

Wonderful people and amazing food.

Wonderful people and amazing food. Walking around Oaxaca and the ease of driving out of town to interesting locations really made for a wonderful trip. Bonus on the Carrera Pan Americana race coming through on stage one of the race. The evening show with the cars and driving crews was an unexpected bonus held surrounding the historic downtown cathedral. Another unexpected bonus was finding out about the Octoberfest in Oaxaca. A wonderful gathering/party hosted by the various craft breweries in Oaxaca. We had a great time. I can't say enough about the wonderful food and the excellent, friendly service given us. If you've never had Mole, I especially liked the Mole Negro! I can safely say, I'll be back!

The cultural aspects, including all the artisans and murals, and the food were the best part of the City. We ate out every night for two weeks and had no bad meals and several excellent ones. And they weren’t all Oaxacan food, although El Catedral, La Olla and Quince Letras, where we had excellent molé, all were. On Hidalgo there is a tiny Japanese restaurant that was great and there is also a very good Mediterranean restaurant with homemade pasta. We walked everywhere because Cómala and the house we rented were all walking distance to the main area of the city. When we took taxis, they were inexpensive (80 pesos).

Oaxaca City is an absolute gem that captures the heart and soul of Mexico. This enchanting destination offers a perfect blend of stunning colonial architecture, vibrant culture, and unforgettable experiences. The city's rich cultural heritage is evident everywhere you look—from the beautifully preserved historic center with its charming cobblestone streets to the magnificent churches and colorful buildings that line every corner. Walking through Oaxaca feels like stepping into a living museum where tradition and modern life coexist harmoniously. The food scene in Oaxaca is simply extraordinary. Known as Mexico's culinary capital, the city offers an incredible variety of authentic dishes. From the famous seven moles to tlayudas, memelas, and chapulines, every meal is an adventure. The local markets, especially Mercado Benito Juárez and Mercado 20 de Noviembre, are bursting with fresh ingredients, traditional foods, and the warmth of local vendors eager to share their culinary traditions. Don't miss trying the local mezcal—it's an essential part of the Oaxacan experience. The artesanías (handicrafts) are truly world-class. Oaxaca is renowned for its talented artisans who create beautiful textiles, intricate alebrijes (colorful wooden sculptures), black pottery, and woven goods. Whether you visit the markets or take day trips to artisan villages like Teotitlán del Valle or San Bartolo Coyotepec, you'll find unique, handmade treasures that reflect centuries of indigenous craftsmanship. Oaxaca City is a destination that feeds the soul. Its warmth extends beyond the climate to the genuinely friendly people who take pride in sharing their culture with visitors. Whether you're a food lover, art enthusiast, history buff, or simply seeking an authentic Mexican experience, Oaxaca will exceed your expectations. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a culturally rich and genuinely beautiful travel experience

The hotel's location is the best: right in the heart of the city centre and within walking distance of everything around Oaxaca. The hotel's decoration theme is a mixture of modern and traditional. It's located in a typical Mexican colonial building and is decorated modernly and practically. We got vouchers for a mezcal tasting at the hotel bar at check-in, complimentary, which was well thought of. The staff in the hotel were very helpful and warm. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Overall we were very happy with the hotel.

Beautiful boutique hotel in the heart of Oaxaca. Upon entering it smells divine and it’s inviting and calm. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. Bed is big, clean & so comfortable, bathrooms are also very clean and roomy. We had ample space for a crib which they had ready for us upon arrival. The staff is very friendly and they go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We would stay here again without a doubt!

Hotel Materia was a very comfortable, well located small hotel. Maria and her staff were lovely and went out of their way to ensure your comfort. The rooms were spacious and clean and the beds were comfortable. The keycode entry pads were convenient. This isn't a luxury hotel, but it is very nice and comfortable and a relaxing base for a trip to Oaxaca. I would highly recommend it.
