A colonial gem in the middle of Puebla Centro! Near everything that is historically important in Puebla. The manager, Angelica, will make sure you have a terrific stay in this boutique hotel. The food spread is presented in a very attractive manner and the taste is delicious! Character and charm predominate the flavor of this hotel!

Everything was perfect, but I was always asking them to put extra bottles of water in the room (( they didn’t)) and once I called reception to ask for water he say (( we are running out of drinking water, you have to buy in the shop near 24/7)) what is wrong with you guys??? No water??? Are you serious??

I stay at this hotel a couple of times and year and I do love their room, the location and the service but the food is horrible. When I first starting staying there the food was pretty good. As time has passed, the food has degraded. On my latest trip I ordered a Caesar salad and it was literally 4 pieces of lettuce, some parmesan cheese (not fresh) and glob of dressing. We had the chicken mole which wasn't bad and then ordered a side of fries which were not even cooked. We complained and they did credit the meal but it is such a shame that a great hotel can't seem to get the food right. We have had some friends stay there and they had the same food issues. It is still a good place to stay but eat elsewhere if you can.

Firstly, we were surprised to see, by hotel signage, that it was a Marriott property or we would have communicated with Marriott directly as we are members. Upon arrival I was pressured by front desk staff to submit a deposit ”just in case we made charges”, we knew we would not have any charges yet after the pressure I complied (I did speak to the Manager who cancelled the charge on our last day). We had a double queen bed room, the beds were comfortable, the A/C was the noisiest I've ever heard, louder than the TV unless the volume was raised a lot, it was also difficult to set the desired temperature and if you turned it off (it was always cold! no matter how much we fiddled with it) the room was super stuffy since there are no windows that open. The bathroom was ok yet had no ventilation and the extractor was not working plus the towels were some of the roughest I've ever experienced. Some of the lights in the room were not operating. All the above we did not complain above, they are just what was in the room during our stay. The one thing we did complain about was the TV system in place, we travel a lot and bring our media equipment for nights spent in, like Fire TB, etc. We also have several online media services which we maintain and use all over the world, like VPN, HBO, Amazon Prime, Netlix, YouTube, etc. While the TV in room can allow you to view Netlix and YouTube, you will not be able to access any other service nor use any of your own media devices. I know several families that bring along video consoles for their children to keep them entertained for example, but the system in this hotel is blocked to any devices from your cell phone or any external device and while we don't have children, having to watch Mexican on air programs (and we are 100% fluent) is not my idea of entertainment. HBO shown on their system does not correspond to any of the descriptions shown on the guide. When I brought this issue up to Management they just said ”Oh, yes we do block all content”. It's a small detail but when most people own more than a few devices, it's very close minded of them. At least they don't charge additionally for Internet which Marriott is known to do.... The restaurant on the main floor was another disappointment as the food was completely without flavor and /or salt, for a Puebla offering is not good at all. We paid for the breakfast buffet at $250 per person. They had someone on the grill making eggs (worst Huevos Rancheros ever!), quesadillas, chalupas, etc. The ”guisados” a beef and potatoes one and a chicken one are best skipped. The beans just ok, the coffee was dark water and while they have an espresso machine it was not in operation. So had juice and some mini pastries which were good. We were never tempted to order room service as offerings in town are much better and many are cheaper as well. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed speaking to them, we also enjoyed our view of the Popocatepetl volcano which is always l

Located in the historic old town and very convenient for city walks. If you can live on the third floor, you can stay quieter, because the downstairs feels like a youth hostel. Of course, if the bar next door sings at night, all the guests will have to listen and enjoy it until midnight

Excellent attention, good food, clean and comfortable rooms, very wide, the availability of all the staff who were asked for tourist information, care very much for the integrity of the people who are here, prices are very affordable, very pleasant the environment I recommend them is very central

My wife & I will return to this hotel on our next trip to Puebla. I can’t think of any negative thing to say about El Sueño. The rooms were nicely appointed, the A/C worked & was quiet & the bathroom was large with plenty of hot water. We had a Jr. Suite & the friend traveling with us was in a Standard + room. Both were large & comfortable. Breakfast was included & was from a very complete menu. I think there are some restrictions on ordering from the menu for the simpler rooms. The staff was outstanding & all who had roles which required interactions with guests spoke English. Everyone made us feel welcome. There is also bar & a terrace & food is served throughout the day & early evening. The hotel is only a few blocks from the zocalo & the area appears very safe. In summary, you won’t be disappointed staying here.
