Everything was extraordinary. Keep in mind this is in the jungles of Chiapas so we did experience some rolling power outages and inconsistent wifi, but we had taken some books, binoculars to birdwatch, the pool was fantastic and you could hear the thunder/rain of the wet season and you would hear howler monkeys. It’s was perfect.
Great stay over 3 days
Property is in great condition and staff was very helpful
Food service could be faster and with less missing items from the menu. Other than that, was fantastic
The best hotel experience I’ve ever had! The design is stunning, and the room was perfect. I loved the peaceful jungle atmosphere and the great pool. Total perfection!
Property is beautiful. Room was clean. The restaurant food is very pricey and not very good. We were out of AC the last day we were there. It was super hot. We called the front desk, but they weren't very helpful.
Nice clean rooms, professional and friendly staff. All rooms have terrace. Easy access from the Palenque Chiapas airport or the downtown area. Close to Palenque's archeological site.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Lovely property, comfortable rooms, and very friendly staff who helped us arrange tours and taxis. We also enjoyed nice massages at their outdoor spa. The food was fine, but we don’t usually expect too much from resorts. We’re happy we picked a place that was closer to nature at this location.
the site and hotel were beautiful, almost like living in the jungle adjoing the National Park where the ruins are.
All you can hear from your balcony was the birds and insects at nite. almost magical
Staff was awesome, place was spotless
Excellent service! Beautiful, new property and stunning balcony jungle views! The rooms were extra luxurious and comfortable.

Lovely clean hotel with excellent services and friendly staff. The a/c in our room stopped working so we were moved to another room after staff tried to fix the problem. I was ill for 2 days of our stay. Reception and restaurant staff were really helpful when my husband asked various questions about help with cancelling a trip we had booked with another company, room service and medicines. I would definitely stay here again if I was back in the area.
The hotel is beautiful, rooms very very comfortable and spacious, breakfast was included and it was delicious, lunch and dinner for a price that it was decent. All meals delicious. Room service is also available. The resort is across the street to buy the tickets for the Maya ruins, then they will transport you to the entrance. Very convenient location.
Make sure to bring enough Mexican pesos, we had credit card and dollars but many vendors outside the resort do not accept credit cards or dollars so I couldn’t buy a couple of souvenirs that I like. Fortunately you can take a taxi and go to Banco Azteca to change money.
We are definitely going back and bring the whole family with us.
Thank you to Juan Antonio our waiter for the excellent service provided to us and others as I was able to observe while he was attending other guests, and Sarai that was always attentive to have the restaurant tables ready.
Great resort-style hotel to chill out in and use as a base for sightseeing. The price is hard to beat for what you get. It’s located close to the Palenque Maya site which puts it in the middle of the jungle. It makes the Maya ruins a breeze to reach but limits alternative dining options or going for a quick walk in town. The setting is awesome though if you like being in nature. The hotel restaurant has tasty food even if it wasn’t the best I had during my four weeks in Mexico. Friendly staff as well.
Very beautiful hotel set in lush jungle super convenient to the National Park. Ample pool area Room was almost perfect. Nice comfortable bed. Great shower. Soft towels. Air/Heat. Strong wifi. TV worked. Clean! Excellent massage at spa…but took some effort to get appts. We went around in circles but eventually succeeded and someone was able to set a date/hour for services. Complimentary transport to Tren Maya was greatly appreciated. However…recommend avoiding the restaurant. First meal was ok…just thought it odd I couldn’t leave a tip on my credit card. Tips must be in cash. Second and third meals…foods to be hot were cold. Crunchy was soggy. Lacked seasoning. We gave up and found excellent places to eat in town. Cab ride to/from $5 usd.
These hotels are part of a hotel chain run by the Mexican government in conjunction with the Tren Maya project. They are all extremely convenient to the various archaeological sites (in this case Palenque), and very affordable - particularly for international travelers, but they are also intended to be within the reach of national tourists - while providing the full amenities of a five star resort: gym, pool, balcony, excellent food, gorgeous gardens, etc. Staff is very helpful and accommodating. Also, I'll note the hotel itself wasn't at all crowded during the 2025 winter holidays, making it still a bit of a hidden gem.
If you are the kind of person that wants to support the Mexican democratic socialism project (4T), that's also an additional reason to stay here. However, to be honest, these hotels are a great deal regardless of one's politics.
I've stayed in two Hotel Mundo Maya hotels and found both of them similarly excellent (they are very much built and run along a similar template). I would strongly recommend considering them if visiting any of the Mayan ruins across the train route!
For this one in particular, the Palenque archaeological site's entrance is right across the street from the hotel's parking lot (a short shuttle ride or very reasonable walk from the reception).
p.s. I am from Mexico, but living abroad. This review is in English just because I am aiming it towards international tourists, since they are less likely to know about this hotel chain.
Everything was good , exept the thing that when we were about to take maya train we didnt have enogh time to have our breakfast , they should start breakfast at 6:00 am instead of 7 just for travelers that are going to tren Maya , thank you so much
