Hostal La Isla

Cet endroit est juste INCROYABLE. Les volontaires sont accueillants, les dortoirs et espaces communs sont toujours très propres, l'emplacement est idéal, les cours de yoga, les petits déjeuners, la cuisine... Vraiment tout est parfait, on s'y sent comme à la maison ☺️

Comfy, peaceful hippy style hostel with solid vegetarian breakfasts, a well equipped kitchen, excellent beds, good bathrooms (excellent hot water!), pleasant shared spaces, and fantastic free yoga classes. I wish they had yoga every day rather than just 3 days a week, the class I joined was fantastic! Location is very good, though when I return to San Cris I will probably look for a place to stay a bit downhill.

Nothing, it’s excellent. Definitely has a hippy-dippy, nutty crunchy style - I would prefer less health-foodie breakfasts (with salsa!), but that’s a personal preference, not a criticism.

La Isla Hostel is an absolutely fantastic hostel that we would warmly recommend to anyone and everyone. The breakfast is good, the terrace is cozy, and the indoor common areas are wonderfully and comfortably decorated. Overall, it’s a place where you just feel like hanging out. We even ended up extending our stay. Everyone is incredibly kind, and it feels very much like a family. The staff and volunteers are always ready with great recommendations for things to experience in San Cristóbal de las Casas and are extremely helpful. As a bonus, there is also free yoga three times a week with highly skilled instructors. 10 out of 10! 🌟

The staff there were very lovely.

Most of the guests were long term and worked in the hostel, so it felt a little clicky at times. There were also pre parties in the hostel both Monday and Tuesday evening which was abit annoying as we were looking for somewhere more chilled to catch up on sleep.
