Casa Degraciela - Hotel Boutique

Encantadora casa, silenciosa.

This hotel is absolutely magical. From the moment you step through the doors off the street you feel you are removed to a Spanish hacienda back in time. The courtyard is gorgeous, filled with flowers and trees and a large fountain. The rooms surround the courtyard and are well appointed (although the bathrooms are quite small and the rooms can be tight). The breakfast is served onsite at the restaurant and there are many choices and the food is fresh and delicious! The tiny onsite bar is possibly the most adorable setting in the whole place, staffed with lovely waiters who will provide anything you need. The hotel is in the absolute perfect location, directly across from the town square, and within walking distance from everything.

Lovely property. Thank you Willlie for taking the time to tell me the hacienda' s history. Love that they have kept some of the original pieces. Little Daniel made a special touch. It felt like I was at my grandmother's home. Will be back!! Absolutely gorgeous!!

What a gem! The boutique hotel is tucked away at the top of the mountains and once you arrive it's a tranquil, beautiful oasis. Parking is offsite but they offer valet service at no extra charge. We were warmly greeted and quickly checked into our room by the nicest young man (I regret I didn't write his name but I believe it was Carlos?) When we walked thru the gate onto the property we were impressed by the beauty and charm of this picture perfect estate! The grounds are meticulously well maintained & the rooms have so much character & history! At check in we were briefly given some of the history of how this place came to be. Each of the rooms has original period furniture and are meticulously well maintained. Although our bathroom was tiny they made use of every square inch, provided quality products & had fresh flowers perfectly positioned on the shower ledge. I am a person who loves attention to detail and this place didn't disappoint. They offer a wonderful breakfast included with the room rate and each room has it's appointed breakfast "spot." Ours was an adorable covered patio outside our room which had a lovely personalized note on the table. Such a nice personal touch! Just a word of advice to be prepared with some warm, comfy clothing as it got really cold at night that way you can fully enjoy all that this place has to offer. Thank you to the wonderful staff who made our stay enjoyable! I would definitely stay here again!

it is a perfect way to get the stress off . Beautiful place and the town is still as an old fashion town . Excelent climate

This hotel is very pretty and well maintained. There is hot shower and free bottles of water. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

Beautiful property with great attention to detail. Staff was wonderful.

We loved this lodging, and I already want to come back. Our room was tiny, which we didn’t like, but the property was spacious and beautiful. My favorite thing, maybe was the billiard room, which had a couple of comfy, easy chairs and a light for relaxing reading, especially when it was raining this was a excellent cozy retreat in the rain. The beds were very comfortable. Everything was super clean and charming. You could step out the door into shopping and restaurants but once you got back inside, it felt like an oasis. It was one of the more expensive options in town, but worth it. Now, the downside. They are doing construction on a giant building next-door and there was hammering all day long. Not pleasant. We had to play music in our room to drive it out. I hopefully it won’t last too long. there is a church next-door and the church bells play until midnight. I found this charming, but it might bother some people. No one on the staff speaks English. Except maybe the guy who checked us in? I can’t remember. Anyway, he was not around on the weekend. so if you don’t speak Spanish, just be aware of this. You will still find a way to get your needs met. We found this true in all of El Salvador, and if the country truly wants to invite foreign tourists, they need to have their staff learn English because it’s the international language. I speak enough Spanish, but my friend is not, and she felt rather lost. We loved El Salvador and this hotel.

I really loved this hotel, so I’m giving it five stars even though right now it has a problem, which is noisy construction next door that goes on all day long. I’m hoping this construction doesn’t last too long because I want to come back and stay here again. It’s a beautiful colonial style Hotel and has cozy, nooks to enjoy on the covered patio and in the small garden. Even though you’re in the heart of the city, you feel like you’re in a little oasis there. Our room was quite small, but adequate. The furnishings were quaint, but the beds were comfortable. One covered but open air room was dedicated to a billiard table, but also had cozy reading chairs with good light which I really appreciated. It was a cozy nook to enjoy when it was raining outside. We did not eat in the dining room, but it looked attractive. Every day, the staff would set a breakfast table for us outdoors, and the included breakfast gave you a choice of three simple meals. If I recall correctly, we were checked in by a young man, who spoke English however, we never encountered another employee who spoke a word of English, and I would say this would be something that they should rectify. If foreign tourism is going to continue to grow, then, their staff needs to take English classes. I was able to communicate with them in Spanish and everyone who worked there was extremely friendly and accommodating. We had a drink in the. tiny bar on one rainy night, and it’s a cute place. The prices were good. I was disappointed that my piña colada did not have fresh coconut in it, but it did have fresh pineapple. The location is great right in the heart of town. Steps from restaurants and shopping. I hope I have a chance to come back. We paid $110 per night in the rainy season, which is considered the low season, which makes this one of the priciest hotels in town but for us it was worth it. Our room had air-conditioning, but on the cool mountain nights, we didn’t need it. Our overhead fan was sufficient.
