Lovely staff who were really helpful with what to do locally. It's about a 9 minute walk to the central square from the hostel. The hostel is clean and quiet which was good for us. Nice spot on the roof to make food and relax

Azul Cielo became my favorite hostel in Mexico! It's a very nice and cosy hostel. Very social - lots of activities going on everyday. And the oaxacan dinner was the best of them all! Friendly staff, clean rooms, quiet location. I didn't feel unsafe there even walking in the dark. I recommend this hostel to everyone! And I hope to come back there someday too

The hostel is amazing! It's cute and clean, there are curtains around the bed, so you kinda have a small room for yourself and don't have to change like a contortionist on your bed or in the bathrooms. The breakfast is good and changes every day, and there's free water. The staff is amazing, and make the vibe very nice for everyone who's staying there! If you're looking for a party hostel this is not your place, if you're looking for a very social and chill one, this is THE place! The hostel organizes free activities both at the hostel and at a nearby bar.

All hostels in Oaxaca City

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This hostel is one of my favourite hostels I’ve stayed at. Such a social vibe with plenty of opportunities to meet new people and explore Oaxaca. It felt super safe and always very clean and the volunteers are the kindest humans ever!!
