The hype
Guests are consistently blown away by the grounds and views, often calling it 'magical,' but many feel the rooms are starting to show their age.
Posada Del Tepozteco
$190-275/ natt
Boka detta om You want the undisputed best view in Tepoztlán and don't mind trading modern tech for historic Mexican charm.
Varför människor älskar det
- The panoramic views of the Tepozteco mountains are genuinely unmatched
- Heated pool (82°F) that actually stays warm year-round
- Location is a perfect sweet spot: 2 blocks from the chaotic center but elevated enough to be peaceful
Snabb Överblick: A grand old dame that rests on its spectacular location laurels—expect breathtaking sunsets but spotty WiFi and worn-in furniture.
Recenserat av @gio.smith_: I spent my mornings sipping coffee on this terrace, just staring at the Tepozteco mountains. The gardens are magical and the silence is exactly what I needed to reset. If you need to escape the city chaos, this is the place.

Reality check
The 'Standard' rooms can feel dark and small compared to the suites; you are paying for the common areas unless you upgrade.
- You prioritize views and atmosphere over modern room tech
- You want a romantic, adults-oriented vibe (though kids are allowed)
- You plan to spend your time by the pool or exploring, not in your room
Renlighet & Underhåll
9
- Housekeeping: Daily and thorough. Staff is frequently praised for keeping the grounds immaculate.

- Maintenance: Gardens are manicured to perfection. Rooms show some wear (older furniture, occasional peeling paint on terraces).
- Linens & towels: Fresh and high quality, though not ultra-luxury thread count.

FAQ & Dolda tips
Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.
Is the pool actually heated?
Yes, kept at around 82°F (28°C) year-round, which is essential because Tepoztlán mornings can be crisp.
Can I walk to the town center?
Yes, it's only 2 blocks away, but the walk back is up a steep hill.
Is there AC in the rooms?
Most rooms rely on ceiling fans and the cool mountain breeze; AC is generally not needed but check if you run hot.
How is the WiFi?
Poor. It works okay in the lobby and restaurant, but is often non-existent in the rooms.
Is it adults-only?
No, but the vibe is very grown-up. There are no specific kids' clubs or activities.
Do I need a car?
Not if you plan to stay in town. The hotel arranges transfers from Mexico City, and the town is walkable.
Insider-tips
- ✨
The 'Temazcal' (steam lodge) ceremony here is authentic and intense—book it at check-in.
- ✨
Ask for a table on the edge of the restaurant terrace for sunset; the view of the convent and pyramid is better than from most lookout points.
- ✨
If the Tepozteco pyramid trail is closed, ask the front desk about the hike to Amatlán instead—it's quieter and just as mystical.
5 saker du bör veta innan du åker
💡The 'gym' is not on-site; you get access to a partner health club nearby.
💡You might spot coatimundis (Mexican raccoons) in the gardens—they are cute but will steal your food.
💡The cancellation policy is stricter than major chains; they really do charge that 10% fee for changes.
💡Standard rooms are significantly less impressive than the photos of the suites.
💡Construction noise from illegal developments in the national park has been an intermittent issue in 2024/2025.
