Just across the street from the Uxmal Pyramids, and a 40 minutes' drive from Merida. This historic resort offers an outdoor pool and a working plantation filled with fruit trees and jogging trails.
Set a 2-minute walk from the traditional village of Santa Elena, The Pickled Onion Eco-Boutique B&B features charming thatched bungalows, an outdoor pool and a restaurant.
Posada El Jardín is an eco-friendly property that offers free Wi-Fi in public areas, sun terraces by the outdoor pool, and a palapa that serves coffee for a fee.
Spent about 3 hours at Uxmal site. Lots of large sites to see and you can wander at your own pace. It was my favorite of the sites we visited on the trip. Tickets and entry could be clearer and signage at sites in Mexico is always lacking, but the quality of the ruins and architecture is fantastic. The scale, intimacy of the visit, and amount of ruins is superb.

To really get to experience Mayan culture, the near by towns...
To really get to experience Mayan culture, the near by towns and cenotes and more archeological sites I would recommend a week in Uxmal .
I loved every minute we were there .
I would also recommend having a much spending money as possible, not because things are expensive it is that there is so much to do and it will cost money .
Horse riding , vintage 4WD hire , the prices for the sites and tours has risen due to the pandemic .
Also supporting local artists .

The site is wonderful and the hotel was surrounded by orchards birds flowers amazing palms. A couple of small interesting local museums with animals local Mayan customs and chocolate cultivation. The Lodge restaurant which also belonged to the hacienda estate was a short walk and of a high standard.

We traveled by car because my older sister has specific food needs due to ALS. A blender, two boxes of food and a cooler were graciously hauled to and from our room by the hotel staff. They could not have been more accommodating and helped to supplement her diet with fresh food from the kitchen.
It was my sister's fifth and probably final trip to the awe inspiring sites of the Yucatan. We are so grateful for the experience.

Uxmal charges US citizen 4 times regular admission.
Uxmal charges US citizen 4 times regular admission. Hotel Uxmal Maya charges 33% more for using US money or cards. Do not go if you don’t want to feel ripped off. Nothing special about hotel as at every turn you have to be guarded about being ripped off.

The bed was very firm and the hot water took a little longer than I would like but everything else was just fantastic. The food was amazing the staff tried to help us find anything we were looking for. It was a nice welcoming place to stay
Wonderful hotel. The location is right next to the archeological site, The cabins are beautifully designed, comfortable and clean. Gardens and pool area are magnificent. Food at the restaurant was delicious and the best of all was the amazing service. The crew at the restaurant managed by Daniel made our stay even better. They really go out of their way to surprise you.
The room was big and air condition worked well. That was especially important, so that the kids (5 and 8y) had room to play. The hotel was generally nicely done and the location across from the ruins was nice.
Breakfast was ok, but nothing special. There was a lot of tree seeds falling down, so you had to hurry to eat and drink you stuff, so it wouldn't be spoiled.
We were upgraded to a very nice room at The Lodge hotel which is next to the pyramids and very pleased with the facilities and services.
The room was very comfortable with a large bathroom tub, good air conditioning, fans and beautiful carved wooden door, displaying a well sculpted Mayan design.
We ended up being upgraded to the sister hotel, the Lodge, like many other reviewers, and it was, of course, excellent. Our room was beautiful, the pool was a treat, and the proximity to the Uxmal Archaeological Site was super. We enjoyed our two nights there!
Hotel close to the Mayan site of Uxmal, but far from any city activity: the closest town (15 km) is Santa Helena. Difficult to eat somewhere in the evening except at the hotel.
welcoming and friendly staff.
free parking on site.
Excellent location and atmosphere. In walking distance to Ruins of Uxmal and next to very interesting Choco Story museum. While it is a historical hotel it has the atmosphere of a former hacienda surrounded by farm land.
We enjoyed being so close to the Uxmal ruins archeological park. The pool was enjoyable for an afternoon dip. Hearing the birds from early morning and throughout the day was a special treat.
The view from my room was wonderful. I could see buildings in Uxmal Archeological Site. Restaurant/bar was good. Staff was efficient and polite. Bed and pillows were comfortable.
