Casa Lecanda

This hotels scores points for both its location, being positioned right in Merida’s UNESCO-protected old quarter, and its elegantly stylish Old World décor.

Housed in a 19th-century colonial mansion and reflecting all the opulence employed in the furnishings by that era’s sisal barons, Casa Lecanda is nothing short of stepping into a period that so shaped this city, and its ample patios and courtyards provide a wonderfully spacious sanctuary in this closely packed neighborhood.

Its seven rooms have been fitted with the modern amenities yet keep hold of the mansion’s original style of hospitality. The staff are warm and welcoming, and there’s a fantastic choice of local to more regional activities to choose from.
