Oaxaca City Hotels: Casa CuéA modern hotel 2 blocks from the zócalo, Casa Cué has good air-conditioning, good service, and bathrooms with instant hot water. The lovely terrace on top of the three-story building (there’s no elevator) has patio furniture and a good view of the mountains. The midsize standard rooms are attractively furnished and well lit; most contain two twin beds. Junior suites are large and come with a sofa, coffee table, and writing table; most hold two double beds (some have one king and one double). The suites are still larger, and the second bedroom makes them perfect for a family. The hotel is well managed. It’s across the street from the market, which can be a little noisy, but the double-glazed windows do a good job of blocking it out.

This is an especially attractive place for first-timers to Oaxaca, who can tap into the owners’ knowledge of the area and perhaps even tour some villages with them. The good-size rooms open to a large garden with tall jacaranda trees; they are simply but comfortably furnished. Breakfast is substantial: fresh fruit, yogurt, hot cereal, eggs, bacon, juice, and coffee. The hotel is farther from downtown than most of the others listed here. Rooms are not available for the Day of the Dead season or Christmas. Live music occasionally on Sunday afternoons. The casa is closed for May. Address Negrete 105 (Apdo.

Each is extravagantly decorated in colonial style, with a few modern touches and fresh-cut flowers. The one that garners the most attention (La Bella Epoca) has three balconies facing the street and a large sitting room. The two-story, two-bathroom suite (El Mío Cid) would be perfect for a family. One of the downstairs suites, La Dominica, is my favorite for its space and comfort. Guests have access to a rooftop terrace. The location, 2 blocks north of the zócalo, is excellent, and Señora Cid de León is a most accommodating hotel owner. The hotel offers custom tours of the city and surrounding valley.
