One of the best hotel experiences - I wish I stayed longer! Breakfast was included and incredible, staff was knowledgeable about the area, culture, getting around. They helped me get a dinner reservation and the airport shuttle was as painless as it gets. Also connected me with a day trip guide and I had the absolute best time. I will be back!

Pug Seal is one of the most beautiful hotels with breathtaking architecture. Everything is high quality and very well designed. The rooms are spacious and there are lots of comfortable spaces to hang out in the courtyard.
The staff is welcoming and friendly. The breakfast is delicious. All the shopping areas are within a few minutes of walking distance. They also helped us arrange rides and contacted us ahead of time to see if we want to schedule private tours. I would highly recommend this hotel!

Pug Seal was a WONDERFUL place to stay for our family. The location is perfect and the hotel itself is absolutely gorgeous and super comfortable. The staff are all amazing and make you feel like you are at home. They took care of all of our requests and needs and made sure our time in Oaxaca was perfect. We cannot thank them enough for such a great stay and trip. If you are visiting Oaxaca Pug Seal is the best place to stay!

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Pug Seal! The hotel was beautiful - incredibly clean and full of great amenities. The staff was wonderful from start to finish and always was willing to help ensure that our stay was perfect. The location of the hotel is city center and within close walking distance to several vibrant local markets. The breakfast that was included with our stay was also amazing and rivaled some of the amazing restaurants that are also nearby. When we come back to Oaxaca we will surely stay at Pug Seal again.

Great designer hotel for lovers of art and architecture. Service is wonderful — the people that work there are lovely and bend over backwards to make sure your stay is excellent. Excellent chef for morning breakfasts. A well stocked refrigerator in your room, lovely choice of tea and snacks all included in your rate which is very very refreshing as opposed to hotels that nickel and dime you!!

The place is beautiful. Close to downtown (walkable distances) The staff were very friendly and helpful. Matter of fact the only time I felt uncomfortable was when one of the “owners” I guess was getting after the personnel (during breakfast) I think that could’ve been handled in a better way. Plus they weren’t doing anything wrong. They were all in the kitchen when according to the lady they should’ve been out taking care of the people (which in the moment was only my husband and I) everything else was great.

Pug Seal is a great boutique option. It is right in the centre and some of the rooms can be noisy due to bars in the area. Oaxaca is a noisy place in general! We stayed in Mar room and this was a quiet room. Breakfast is amazing service is outstanding. A great boutique hotel option.

My favorite hotel stay to date. Pug Seal delivers in all aspects. Helpful and friendly staff, beautiful design in room and within the courtyard, peaceful and tranquil says it all. Recommend for any travelers looking for that elevated stay in Oaxaca. The staff helped plan day trips and also arranged airport transfers to and from. And the breakfast OMG was perfection. Traditional Mexican fare with an elevated twist. This was a spectacular and unforgettable stay. Don’t pass on Pug Seal, it’s just what you need.
