My stay at Holiday Inn Merida was a mixed bag. The location is fantastic, right near Paseo Montejo and plenty of eateries, which made exploring the city easy. However, the hotel feels a bit run down and could definitely use some refreshment—especially the rooms which lacked windows and featured noisy air conditioning. Overall, if you’re just looking for a place to crash after a busy day, it's okay, but I wouldn't recommend it for a longer stay.

Rooms

The room I got was spacious and equipped with a comfy bed, but it had a skylight instead of proper windows, which felt bizarre and dim.

Service

While some staff were helpful, my experience with the front desk was frustrating; they initially told me they had no change for tips but finally found some after multiple trips.

Location

The location is a huge plus—walking distance to vibrant areas with a mix of high-end and affordable dining options, plus it was great for accessing downtown and tourist sites.

The breakfast buffet was good with a decent selection, but dining options otherwise seemed limited in quality and variety.

Facilities

Facilities were basic but adequate; I didn't use the pool much as it didn’t have a relaxing vibe and the overall ambiance felt outdated.

While the Holiday Inn Merida offers a great location near Paseo de Montejo with plenty of dining options nearby, the hotel itself feels quite dated and in need of a refresh. The service was hit or miss, with some staff being friendly and helpful, but others dropping the ball. I appreciated the comfortable bed and decent breakfast, but the overall experience didn’t quite meet my expectations considering the issues with cleanliness and outdated amenities.

Rooms

The room was decent, but had no windows and only a skylight, which felt odd. I was initially given a room overlooking a parking lot, but thankfully, the staff was accommodating and switched me to a better room.

The facilities need some work. The pool area isn't very inviting, and I noticed cleanliness issues, like a dead bug in the mosquito net. Additionally, the AC in my room was pretty noisy during the night.

I had a mixed experience at Holiday Inn Merida. The location is prime for exploring the heart of Merida—everything from high-end restaurants to local coffee shops is just a walk away. However, the hotel itself feels outdated and is more suited for a quick stay rather than a relaxing getaway. The pricing is a definite plus, but the amenities and service could use some serious improvement.

During my stay at the Holiday Inn Merida, I found the location to be the highlight, nestled close to interesting spots and dining options. however, the hotel itself felt quite outdated and needed significant refreshing. The front desk service was hit or miss, which detracted from the overall experience. If you're just looking for a place to sleep and explore the city, this may suffice, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything beyond that.
