3-star hotels in Valladolid

A shortlist of the 3-star hotels in Valladolid, chosen from the 15 properties in the list. It is for travellers who want a colonial-town base for the ruins at Chichén Itzá and the cenotes, without paying for a resort.

15 hotels

Staying in Valladolid

Valladolid is a colonial town in Yucatán and an easy base for Chichén Itzá: arriving at opening is the way to see the ruins before the coaches come, and the cenotes are best split between morning and the last hour, with Suytun the busiest and Oxman or X'kekén quieter. Midday belongs to the hotel pool, which is why so many of these 3-star hotels have one.

The hotels listed here are all in the town itself, on the numbered streets around the centre and the Candelaria district. Calle 40, Calle 42 and Calle 41 appear again and again in the addresses, with several houses in Colonia Candelaria and others a few blocks north or west. Between them they cover the usual needs: courtyards and gardens, pools indoor and outdoor, family rooms, car parking and Wi-Fi. Couples on a short break, families travelling with children and business visitors all find something here, and the town's grid makes almost every one of them walkable to the centre.

Questions, answered

How far are these hotels from Chichén Itzá?

The list gives no distance to the ruins, so none can be quoted. What the site does say is that you should reach Chichén Itzá at opening, because by 10:30 the Riviera buses arrive; staying in town makes an early start easier.

Which hotels have a pool?

Hotel María de la Luz, Zentik Project Boutique Hotel & Spa and Le Muuch Hotel have indoor pools. La Aurora Hotel Colonial, Hotel Posada San Juan, TecnoHotel Valladolid, Hotel Casa Hipil, Casa Valladolid Boutique Hotel, Hotel Palacio Canton and Frater Yucatan Hotel list outdoor pools.

Can I park at these hotels?

Free car parking is listed at most of them, including Ecotel Quinta Regia, Hotel María de la Luz, La Aurora Hotel Colonial, Hotel Posada San Juan, TecnoHotel Valladolid, El Zaguán Colonial by GuruHotel, Hotel Casa Hipil, Le Muuch Hotel, Hotel Colonial Zaci by GuruHotel and Waye Valladolid.

Do any of these hotels allow pets?

Hotel Posada San Juan lists pets allowed, and Waye Valladolid describes itself as pet friendly in its name. None of the other hotels in this list mention pets in their facilities, so ask before bringing an animal.

Which hotels are good for families?

Family rooms are listed at Hotel María de la Luz, La Aurora Hotel Colonial, Hotel Casa Hipil, Casa Valladolid Boutique Hotel, Le Muuch Hotel, Ecotel Quinta Regia, El Zaguán Colonial by GuruHotel, Hotel Gayser, Waye Valladolid and Frater Yucatan Hotel.

Which cenotes should I visit?

The site's advice is to split the cenotes between morning and the last hour. Suytun, the famous-photo one, packs out, while Oxman or X'kekén give you more water and less queue. Midday is best spent in the hotel pool.

Is breakfast included?

Breakfast is listed among the facilities at Hotel María de la Luz, La Aurora Hotel Colonial, Hotel Casa Hipil, Casa Valladolid Boutique Hotel, Le Muuch Hotel and Waye Valladolid. Ecotel Quinta Regia lists breakfast in room instead. The others do not mention it.

Are these hotels in the town centre?

They are spread across the town on Calle 40, 41, 42, 43 and 44, with Hotel Gayser naming the Centro Histórico and La Aurora, Casa Hipil and Le Muuch in Colonia Candelaria. All are 3-star houses within the town rather than out on the highway.
