"It was on a busy road but not much noise at night. We stayed October so the pool was closed. The room was clean but needed updating. But this was reflected in the price. There are two cafe/bars about 150 yards away where we had an excellent breakfast. It's about a 20 mins walk into the beautiful town. The receptionist could have been a bit more friendly. Good parking right outside the hotel. Overall it was a good stay."

"Good location clean rooms"

Hotel ILUNION Mérida Palace

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is like me - a bit old and tired. However this was more than made up for by the fabulous breakfast, tremendously helpful staff and the dining options which included vegan and vegetarian options which were well balanced and delicious. The value for money was unbelievable. The hotel locations could not be beaten and Merida itself is one of the most astonishing historical places I’ve ever visited. Outstanding."
