A fabulous charming boutique hotel in a great location!
It was spotless, safe, inviting, and the staff on hand treated us like old friends. We received warmth, recommendations, and kindness!
The daily breakfast was made to order and rivals any one of the best restaurants in town. We loved it !

Our stay at Ébano was wonderful. The hotel is centrally located, spotlessly clean, and full of charm. Most importantly, Charley, Don Carlos, and the rest of the staff were truly exceptional. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome, offer thoughtful recommendations, and ensure we were well taken care of throughout our stay. When my friend became ill, their genuine concern was especially touching—they even brought her tea and breakfast to the room. Their kindness made our first trip to Oaxaca truly memorable. I highly recommend staying here and will absolutely choose Ébano again on my next visit to Oaxaca.

Fantastic historic place oozing with charm. Staff is wonderful, always courteous and willing to help. So great to get back from a long walk around town to a glass of fresh juice (agua). This is my second time in 2 years and I know that I will be back yet again

Ébano by PB is an awesome hotel. The architecture is beautiful with an inner courtyard. Excellent service from the staff, friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was very tasty; many options from which to choose. My faves were the teas, green juice, oatmeal with berries and scrambled eggs with chorizo ... all served at your table in that lovely courtyard. Our room was spacious, beautiful and the bathroom had a jetted tub and an excellent shower! Nice amenities, very clean and we felt very safe in the hotel and in Oaxaca. It's such a lovely city to visit. We highly recommend this hotel!!!
