Beautiful, spacious room with a very comfortable bed. The lap pool was excellent, and the location is ideal—within easy walking distance of Paseo de Montejo. The owner was incredibly kind and a wonderful host. Pan & Koffeé next door is also a great bonus, with delicious breakfasts and excellent coffee. Highly recommended!

“Wonderful stay in a beautiful city. Staff were so thoughtful and kind, service and attention to detail rivals anywhere. Stayed with my wife and two kids (both under 10yo). Location is perfect for exploring Merida. Got lots of help connecting with tours by a great provider. Started each day with a delicious breakfast and got great recommendations for dinners. Will hope to come back again soon!”

“Staying at Boutique by the Museo was one of the highlights of our trip to Merida. The space was beautiful, the room was comfortable and clean, and the service was outstanding. Boutique and the cafe next door are run by a lovely family, and their care and attention shines through in every detail. The host and staff were extremely welcoming to our son and made sure we had everything needed for a baby. The location is near everything but very quiet with no street noise. I travel a lot, and it is truly a special place. I would definitely recommend for individuals, couples or families visiting Merida!”

“The Boutique hotel is stunning. It's such a lovely environment overall, from the piano in the lobby to the indoor-outdoor feel and the incredible pool. I had the most magical moment with a friend, literally playing in the water in a rainstorm. Core memories made here! I highly recommend Boutique by the Museo for your first (and every!) stay in Mérida.”

“Boutique by the Museo offers an utterly gorgeous, charming stay for anyone looking to stay in Mérida. In particular, the courtyard, pool area, and surrounding lounge spaces truly make this hotel a small paradise for travelers. The staff is very helpful and always greets with a smile. Great breakfast offerings, as well!”
Perfect for our family of six

“We had a wonderful time at this lovely hotel last week, everything was perfect for our family. We were a group of six, 3 adults 3 kids. We booked the grand boutique suite & were upgraded to the Penthouse! It became like home to us, not just our excellent room but also the over the top service we received from the staff. Erick was ready to help with anything from arranging our breakfast time (often 5:15am due to our early morning excursions), having our towels ready for the morning (cenote swimming), calling in our delivery dinner order & bringing it to our room, coming back later to pick up the garbage, making sure we had mangoes in the room for our youngest granddaughter (she’s still talking about the mango pastry she had at the owners restaurant Pan & Koffee where we were invited to eat on the mornings we were able to eat at normal breakfast time- everything was SO DELICIOUS!!! Our breakfasts at Pan and Koffee were the highlight of our mornings when we were able to eat there). Erick even walked with my husband the first night to get waters because it was raining & we had no idea where to go. He truly went above & beyond to make sure we had anything & everything we needed.
After that they stocked our fridge with waters as per our request. The kids loved the pool, my husband loved the private terrace, & I loved everything about our vast room and how when we left in the mornings & came back in the evenings the room was so orderly compared to the tornado my group left it in, LOL!
Two blocks away is a gastronomical street to warm any foodies belly, one block is the Main Street.
I highly recommend the Boutique by the Museo, we miss it already!”

“Booking accommodation from another country can sometimes lead to mismatches between expectations and reality. Boutique by the Museo simply blew us away. From the outside itself the building is fairly non descript. But as soon as you step inside the door it offers an oasis of calm from the challenges of travelling around Mexico with a young family. The design of all parts of the hotel is ideal - both beautiful and practical. The room set up was done with style and generously proportioned. The fairly small but big enough pool and hammock relaxing area was voted by our three children as the best relaxing and fun space of our whole 2 week roadtrip. Breakfast could not be more fresh, with pastries from their next door bakery. And the surprise factor for us was that the location was a block away from one of the most stylish colonial boulevards in the city, and a very short walk from a street full of interesting restaurants. We couldn't recommend it highly enough.”

“In the second half of my time at Merida, I moved to the Boutique by the Museo, my fourth stay there. This hotel is exactly as I remembered: gorgeous, clean, comfortable and quiet. Great breakfasts with impeccable presentation. Everything is homemade including the breads and pastries. The staff is wonderful: responsive and accommodating with a genuine desire to please. Hot water, powerful A/C in every room of the suite and dedicated modem for a super strong Wi-Fi signal. My only regret is that I couldn’t stay longer. What a great experience!”
