Our travel advisors’ insider tip
In Puebla, the step up to a suite is a short one.
At the Banyan Tree Puebla, five of the seven categories are suites, in four styles: the Urban Junior Suite, the Bliss Junior Suite, the Bliss Suite and the Serenity Suite.
Why it matters: the upgrade comes on arrival, upon availability. If you want to be sure of a suite, book it as your category – then it is part of your booking.
Our advice: our recommendation for this hotel is the Urban Junior Suite. It comes in two bed configurations, one of them with a king bed – tell our travel advisors which one you prefer.
Where to stay in Puebla: in the historic center
For travelers, Puebla comes down to three areas.
The historic center is the city of church domes and tiled façades, laid out on a grid in the 16th century: the Zócalo with the cathedral, the gilded Capilla del Rosario inside the church of Santo Domingo and the Biblioteca Palafoxiana. Our recommendation: the Banyan Tree Puebla, because from here you reach everything on foot.
The old barrios around the center – the Barrio del Alto, the Barrio del Artista with its studios and the Callejón de los Sapos with its antique stalls – are the Puebla of workshops and small squares. Our recommendation: a Sunday morning at the Callejón de los Sapos, then lunch in the center.
Cholula, the neighboring town to the west, is the place for a day trip: the Great Pyramid lies beneath a green hill, the church of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios stands on its summit, and behind it, in clear weather, rise Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl. Our recommendation: go up in the late afternoon, when the light falls on the volcanoes.
For orientation: Puebla lies in the highlands east of Mexico City; many travelers combine the two cities, and from Puebla the roads lead on to Oaxaca and Veracruz.
Rooms and suites: the best hotel in Puebla from the inside
The Banyan Tree Puebla offers seven categories: two rooms and five suites.
The rooms are the Urban Room, in two bed configurations, one of them with a king bed. Among the suites you choose between the Urban Junior Suite, also in two bed configurations, the Bliss Junior Suite, the Bliss Suite and the Serenity Suite.
The names follow the style of Banyan Tree, the Singapore hotel group known for its spas; the Talavera ceramics in the rooms are pure Puebla.
Our recommendation is the Urban Junior Suite: the step from room to suite, with breakfast for two and all the other suitespot benefits.
If you need a certain size, tell us: our travel advisors confirm it with the hotel before you book.
What a night at a luxury hotel in Puebla costs
A night at the Banyan Tree Puebla costs from 226 €. The suitespot benefits apply from the first night: breakfast for two and a 100 US dollar hotel credit, plus, upon availability, an upgrade on arrival, early check-in and late check-out.
When it is at its best: from November to April, in the dry season: Puebla lies at more than 2,000 meters, the days are sunny and mild, the evenings crisp, and the volcanoes often stand out clearly on the horizon.
From June to September is the rainy season: mornings are mostly sunny, a shower passes through in the afternoon, and the highlands turn green. Late summer is also the season of chiles en nogada, the city’s festive dish. Our recommendation for everyone who comes for the food.
And whatever the date: the suitespot benefits apply in January just as in July.
How long to stay: two to three nights – a day for the old town, a day for Cholula; easy to combine with Mexico City.
Around 5 May, the anniversary of the Battle of Puebla, and during Holy Week the city is in particular demand; enquire early for those dates.
