Auto Hotel Paraíso Inn

Though the hotel is aimed at travellers with a car as the accommodation is right above the garage, you can easily get to the place without a car. It involves an 800m or 15 min walk through a pastoral landscape to the main road where there are frequent 'cooperative ' busses that will take you to Palenque or the archaeological site for 25 pesos, which I preferred to taking a taxi to and from the hotel. As others have told, the couple running the place are very pleasant together with their 4 year old girl.

Nothing to dislike

The setting of this hotel is absolutely forgeous. Fro. The main road you have to drive for about 5 -10 minutes to the hotel. On one side there are fields and cows. On the other side is a creek and lush jungle. You can hear and see animals: we saw a colibrí, Guacamaya's and leaf cuttinv ants. There Re also gecko's (who eat the mosquitoes) and butterflies. You will have your own garagebox and annex (spacious) room. It is very clean and well equipped. The staff is wonderful. Do let them know when you arrive as they will wait for you. They make a wonderful fresh breakfast, truly delicious with fruits and yoghurt and pineapple juice. We aske for laundry service in the village but they arranged it for us, although we only stayed for 2 nights. That was so nice. I truly recommend staying here if you visit Palenque. It is very close to the village (15 minutes by car) and 10 minutes by car to the ruins. It is right next to Aluxes, an ecopark (wort visiting) and several restaurants. So you dont have to go into town. Thank you Autohotel Paraiso Inn: it was an amazIng experience to stay with you!

This was the cleanest hotel room I have ever seen. It was impeccably clean! The beds were very comfortable, and we loved having the secure, closed garage since we were traveling with all our belongings.

The air conditioner did not cool as well as we would have liked. When we arrive, it was about 100 degrees F (close to 38 C) in Palenque, but the A/C had not been turned on prior to our arrival, so it was extremely hot inside the room. The A/C unit was unable to keep up with the heat. We were very warm, even at night.

. The room are large and very practical with the garage underneath them. The location is very calm, you'll wake up surrounded by nature. Breakfast was ok but not exceptional. It's very close to the archeological site of Palenque. The staff is very attentive to what you need though they speak little English.

The road that leads to the hotel is very bumpy. This location should be avoided with someone pregnant or with back pain.

we stayed for two nights. the host was very helpful and responsive. the room was cleaned the next morning. dirt road leading to the property wasn’t as bad as described in other reviews. It’s a good place to stay if you are out most of the day. Otherwise, there is not much to do.

It’s a very simple place. Should have no expectations.

This place was perfect for us traveling by car with two dogs. We only stayed one night en-route to San Cris, but it really blew us away. The location and grounds are absolutely beautiful. The jacuzzi was much appreciated (cool) after the long drive. It was such a peaceful place - they have a great communal area where breakfastbis served. The staff were so friendly and professional. The rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean. Huge comfy King beds.

I didn't have high expectations due to "auto hotel" concept which sounded a bit dodgy. I was therefore really impressed with the hotel. There is no reception per se, only a couple of guys working on the grounds and taking care of everything, but they are good at what they do and very friendly. The rooms were impeccable, the shower was huge and had good water pressure, the bed was very comfortable and there was so much space. Nice point : they have communicating rooms, separated by a double door. The location was random but actually amazing, as we could hear and see nature day and night without human interference. It was also very close to the ruins, and still an easy 10 minute car ride to the city. The hotel scored higher on my books than some higher category ones where I stayed during this trip. I would definitely come back.

Breakfast could be improved with at least eggs or quesadillas, I'd be happy to pay an extra 100 pesos for this.

Everything, especially the kindness of Mr. Carlos and his team, that showed a great care for us. The experience itself was great with an amazing breakfast on a beautiful garden. The place was very close to Palenque ruins and to Agua Azul and Misol-Ha waterfalls access road, on a secluded and safe area, with private garage and a big room.

Proximity to Maya Ruins, security for the car by having an own garage with direct access to the room, great breakfast in the middle of the jungle

Dirt road to the hotel is difficult to drive, especially if it is raining. Bad WiFi.

Everything!!! Perfect location, amazing breakfast super super helpful staff, Carlos was not present in person but certainly made sure he was available 24/7 called when we checked in and checked out, was very helpful about local knowledge, very very lovely place to stay, would highly recommend!! Very very clean, felt very secure, beautiful scenery

We would of stayed so much longer had there been stronger WiFi for work calls via zoom etc, but that is it, more than enough internet if on holiday, leisurely using the internet!
