Great location, room, staff, and breakfast
Great location just a 10 minute walk to the Zocolo, a couple of blocks from Benito Juarez and 20 de Noviembre markets. Great freshly made breakfast daily, very tasty. Staff are all outstanding—incredibly friendly and helpful.

Great hotel in Oaxaca !
The hotel is wonderful, clean comfortable and a pleasure to return to each day ... we have stayed here before .
Central to all important places to visit
This time .... ( group made up of 4 couples) ...we were very impressed with the buffet breakfast and the very competent breakfast staff who couldn't do enough for you .
The day time female receptionist was also attentive and helpful.
Cleaning staff of hotel/ rooms couldn't be faulted .
Service was sadly let down we all felt by the surly male night receptionist/ porter who never smiled and resented it seems any interaction with guests . Such a shame .
We will still return to the hotel next year for our visit to Oaxaca ... hopefully the night porter will have learnt better people skills by then!!

What I love the most about this property was the proximity to the cathedral and the center of Oaxaca.
The breakfast in the morning was also really good and the staff was always friendly and helpful.

The staff at Real Alma was very friendly and helpful during my 8 night stay. They kept the room clean, provided plenty of clean sheets and towels. I enjoyed my stay enough to extend it by three nights! It's a little walk to many of Oaxaca's sites, restaurants, squares, markets, etc. Overall great experience!

Great location and friendly staff
The restaurant and front desk staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved the rooftop terrace to hangout in the evening.
The location is vibrant and central. Easy walking distance to zocalo and several mercados.
It doesn’t have an elevator, which was fine for us, but may be a concern for others.

Hotel Real Alma is just 5-6 blocks to the center of Oaxaca that offers great shopping and a wide selection of restaurants. There's also a number of local street food sites nearby. This is a great choice if you want to be in the heart of the city.
