“Beautiful property with such lovely art works and Coyoacan is a vibrant but very safe feeling neighbourhood. My room was huge and the bed is very comfortable. Having a kitchen was perfect for when you don't want to eat out and the laundry service offered was a blessing after weeks travelling. The owners and staff are always on hand to answer questions or offer suggestions. Highly recommended.”
“This is a very nice family-owned and run. The rooms are nice and the price is right. It’s a hospice with a good full kitchen and very nice dining room. So, you can really do your own cooking comfortably. Several big families used that feature to good effect while I was there. There are several features: There are several nice public rooms. It surprises you with a Kahlo and Rivera painting or two! If you’re lucky you’ll catch family barbecue/dance parties in the entrance courtyard, with a marimba band or nice mariachi group. This place is …. MEXICO, not some cold hotel chain. I love it.”
“For my first visit to La Ciudad de México I'm very thankful and glad Casa Tamayo was where I spent a majority of my time. It's very close to Ecobici stations and a short walk into the heart of activity from the parque to the mercado de las artesanias and to the Frida Khalo museo. I biked every day to and from the city with my Spanish immersion class mostly taking place in Condesa or Roma Norte. Consuelo was such a gem. She is so kind and I loved that she had two extremely friendly golden retrievers. The kitchen is such a vibe. You can buy fruit or food and reheat it or cut it up, lots of utensils and silverware provided. There are stairs, so it's not very disability friendly. Such a great, quiet, and peaceful stay.”
“I really enjoyed my stay at Casa Tamayo. Clean rooms, peaceful atmosphere, beautiful garden, and the service was kind and welcoming. Highly recommended!”
“My recent stay at Casa Tamayo in Mexico City exceeded all expectations, transforming it from a mere hotel into a true home away from home. Nestled in the vibrant heart of historic Coyoacán, its location alone is a significant draw for those seeking an authentic Mexican experience. The neighborhood's rich tapestry of traditional art, captivating shops, and exceptional gastronomy offers endless opportunities for exploration and discovery. But beyond the captivating surroundings, it's the genuine warmth and personalized attention of the staff that truly sets Casa Tamayo apart. Their exceptional service fosters a feeling of comfort and familiarity, making every interaction feel welcoming and genuine. From the moment I arrived, Every time I visit, I feel enveloped in a sense of belonging, a sentiment further enhanced by its friendly and secure atmosphere. I wholeheartedly recommend Casa Tamayo to anyone planning a trip to Mexico City; it's a place where exceptional service and a prime location combine to create an unforgettable experience. Bravo, Casa Tamayo!”
“Our family of 4 had a wonderful time staying at Casa Tamayo last week. We were greeted with a warm smile the moment we arrived, and every other time afterwards. The home was impeccably stylish, and you can tell the owners appreciated art & design. The rooms were clean and the beds were so comfortable. The location was perfect - a short walk to the main square, markets & restaurants. Our only feedback is perhaps, providing tissue boxes in the rooms, as well as hair conditioner & body wash/soap in the showers. And luckily we had a tv in the deluxe room, but the other room did not have a tv. I think it would be lovely to add TVs to the other rooms, would be a nice gesture. All in all, I would not hesitate to stay at Casa Tamayo again for our next visit to CDMX. Thank you to all the wonderful staff. See you next time!”
“I loved my stay at Casa Tamayo. This is a homestay and not a hotel. So you will have a private room in a very nice house for a good price. The kitchen and living area is shared with other guests and the staff. Luckily everyone I met there was very nice and friendly. Most mornings I was able to speak Spanish with Minerva, who is a member of the staff. She was very nice and helpful. There is a garden where I sometimes sat to enjoy breakfast or some afternoon reading. The living room is also very comfortable. I went to Mexico City to take a Spanish immersion class. Casa Tomayo was perfect for that because it is in Coyoacan, which is mostly local people who speak Spanish. The Casa is a few blocks from the central plaza where you can find many restaurants. I was there during a Feria del Libros, so there were lectures and music every night and many bookshops set up in tents.”
