Casa Oaxaca OAXACA, MEXICO
In the heart of Oaxaca City, just one street from the majestic Templo de Santo Domingo, Casa Oaxaca stands as both a symbol of refined hospitality and a tribute to the region’s cultural soul. The hotel, which is set within a restored colonial mansion, blends traditional architecture with serene contemporary design. Whitewashed walls, bougainvillea-draped terraces and sunlit courtyards echo the beauty of Oaxaca’s vernacular style, while natural materials such as wood and stone create a space that feels calm and timeless. Every detail reflects a deep respect for
craftsmanship and heritage. Local artisans have shaped the hotel’s character through hand-carved doors, woven textiles and design elements rooted in ancestral techniques. Spaces flow from quiet guest rooms to an open patio, where the hotel’s most celebrated offering reveals itself: its food. This spirit is led by chef Alejandro Ruiz, whose
cuisine has positioned Casa Oaxaca among Mexico’s most acclaimed gastronomic destinations. His dishes honour tradition while embracing innovation, transforming seasonal ingredients into
expressions of place — from richly layered moles to herbs gathered from the garden and tortillas prepared by hand. From this philosophy emerged Casa Oaxaca El
Restaurante, located in the historic centre and imagined as an open-air celebration of culture and creativity. Here, traditional Oaxacan dishes meet contemporary textures and techniques, creating a dining experience that’s both rooted and forward-thinking. Beyond the city lies Portozuelo, a countryside
retreat surrounded by farmland and mountains. Part farm, part culinary residency, it’s a place for both experimentation and the preservation of tradition. Here, the cycle of hospitality comes full circle, where ingredients are nurtured, knowledge is passed down and inspiration begins anew. Together, Casa Oaxaca, El Restaurante and
Portozuelo form a living narrative, a story of origin, transformation and return. Rooted in the land and spirit of Oaxaca yet open to the world, they offer a hospitality experience that feels both intimate and expansive.
DON’T MISS Spend an evening on the rooftop, where church bells echo across the city and dinner begins with hand-mixed salsa dishes
