Heading to Oaxaca? There are so many great options to choose from when deciding where to stay. Oaxaca has played host to a spate of spectacular hotel openings in the last few years (and cool Airbnbs, too). Visiting the capital city only a decade ago meant travelers were limited to just one, maybe two, high-end offerings. That’s very much changed—alongside the growth and expansion of the city as a design-driven destination for global and domestic travelers alike.
A stay at any of the properties on this list puts you in proximity to some of the very best elements of Oaxaca: rich, regional dishes; hand-crafted artisan goods; and hospitality built around the pride Oaxacans have for their culture, land, and people. Whether you opt to stay in the cobblestone city center or elect for accommodations surrounded by the vast and rugged beauty of Oaxaca’s natural surroundings, you’re bound for a great trip to this diverse region. Here are the best hotels in Oaxaca to choose from.
