Comfortable beds, good food, great view from the terrace, short walk downhill to the Zocalo. The staff make clever "sculptures" with the towels--a swan, a rabbit, a boat or a snake. The staff was very helpful and spoke good English. They ordered a wheelchair for my husband, which fortunately we didn't need because there are inexpensive taxis everywhere.

Charming bed and breakfast hotel in downtown Oaxaca

Clean and quiet. Good bed, plenty of hot water. Two blocks to the Santo Domingo restaurant area, easy walk back after dinner. Five blocks to Zocalo and all the museums and markets. Convenient!!
AND the terrace restaurant has drinks at night and GREAT breakfast in the morning. All of the egg dishes are really terrific. The cafe con leche is also fabulous.

Quiet but close to everything

I stayed for 9 nights and enjoyed its quaint decor, central location and excellent staff. At one point I lost my phone in a taxi and the staff did not rest until my phone was back in my hands. The restaurant has nice morning view of the Santo Domingo Cathedral and a wide selection on their menu. This is not for those seeking white tablecloths and a Chain Hotel Experience. You will receive seclusion from the world around you and  authentic Oaxacañan hospitality. 

Charming with staff that excels!

This is a fantastic base for exploring Oaxaca city. The building is beautiful, it has an amazing roof terrace with panoramic city views, lovely bedrooms and bathrooms, and the host Danny is friendly, generous and happy to share his extensive knowledge with you.
If you're lucky enough to have a room that overlooks the central galleria make sure you shut the curtains after your morning shower so as not to distract the other guests from their breakfast. We caused such a scene that the host thought that someone had fallen off the roof.

Stupendo!

A fine stay of 5 days at Casa del Sotano. Very quiet, well taken care of place. I would return any time. Very careful staff, clean, good mattress. Manager of the terrace restaurant very personable. Don't miss the Oaxaca omelette.

Comfortable,clean, beautiful

We stayed in three different places in Oaxaca and this was our favourite. It was spotlessly clean and the bed was really comfortable with crisp white sheets and no horrible plastic underlay! There was hot water in the shower. The only downside was that the rooms with one bed were a little small.
The onsite restaurant is fine and is in a lovely courtyard setting. There is a rooftop terrace with gerat views. The place was pretty quiet. The staff and owners were very helpful and friendly. We were able to leave bags there while we went hiking. It was great value. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Wonderful small hotel, comfortable and friendly.

Great location. Close to zocalo, grocery shops, banks and trip offering agencies around zocalo. All within 10-20 mins walk. The hotel is very nice, like a monastery with thick walls. Looks well kept and clean. Room with king bed was small but big enough for 2 people. It was clean with good internet connection and Roku TV. Shower/bathroom small but clean. No smells. Receptionist were helpful, they booked our return taxi to airport for us (250 pesos). We had breakfast in the hotel's small restaurant every morning. Various egg options, coffee, drinks, etc (approx. 300 pesos for 2). We liked the cleanness and location. Didn't get to use the small jacuzzi on the top of the hotel with wide views of the city (away on trips every day).

Well kept monastery hotel 

This hotel was close to most downtown attractions, but far enough to be relatively quiet.

I liked the rooms (named after saints) and the vibe.

One day waiting for a tour pickup had breakfast and although simple it was good. They have four sets that include coffee/tea/juice and eggs or enfrijoladas + beverages, etc.
 
The temazcal (aromatic sauna shaped liked an igloo) was relaxing, especially after drinking the tea. They can have it ready same day before 6:00 PM, but you have to let them know at least one hour ahead. 

My only problem was that after 8:30 AM and until past 10:00 PM the internet slowed down to the point where WhatsApp calls didn’t go through. I had a conversation about this with the staff members, but apparently it was out of their control; it seemed that as more hotel guests started using the internet the quality got worse.

Even with the Wi-Fi degradation issue I would still recommend this hotel.

Great location

The hotel is in a great position with lovely views from the terrace restaurant.  Our room was clean and comfortable, but was on an inside corridor so got no natural light and the WiFi did not work in the room.  There was building work going on when we were there.  It looks like they are improving the roof terrace area, which will be lovely when it is done.  They were helpful when we complained about the noise from the hammer drill while we were trying to get some rest and it was stopped.  So worth checking when the work will be completed!

Near the city centre, lovely terrace views

We were transiting through Oaxaca, en-route to a camp in the mountains, and used Hotel Casa del Sotano going in and out. We we able to enjoy the nice, clean rooms and facilities while at the hotel and get the rest we needed during the travel days. The hotel is located in the historic district and is convenient to several of the sightseeing venues as well as many excellent restaurants. 

The rooms are well-kept and the grounds are attractive with plenty of plants in the inner courtyards. There is a small restaurant on the upper level that allows dining and drinks onsite if you're not up to going out.

My only negatives were that the ceiling fan in my room didn't work and the mattress was overly-firm. Neither would be a reason to not want to visit again. 

The value for what was experienced was excellent.
