This hotel has a charming courtyard area and the staff is pleasant. The place is very clean and AC worked well. Room was on the small side (I had a standard ground floor unit). The location right on 5th Avenue was terrific. My biggest complaints were: There is no parking at the hotel itself. So, beware if you have a... more

I stayed at Posada Mariposa at very beginning of October 2008 and spent 4 nights. It is not a luxury hotel but had everything I needed. I had a such a good time there, felt like home and very safe even I was travelling alone. Very warm, nice atmosphere, very helpful and nice people. They are always there to answer... more

My boyfriend and I stayed here as part of a package we booked with Expedia, and paid around $60/night. For that price, I thought the hotel was great. It's similar to other budget hotels in the area, e.g. Luna Blue, but I prefered it because of the location and the cleanliness of the hotel. There was some construction noise, but... more

My boyfriend and I went to Playa del Carmen in late May for a much-needed vacation. We learned about Posada Mariposa through our travel agent and thought it sounded great (i.e. 1 block from the beach, literally steps away from La Quinta Avenida, etc.) so we booked it. I've never been greeted with such warmth at check-in. The concierge, whose... more

My family and I we booked the hotel through expedia.com, decided a few days before that my little sister is going to come too, we called expedia and they called the hotel, everything was fine we just had to pay an extra charge of 10 dollars per night. The hotels suites are too small for 4 people so we stayed... more

We have been disappointed from the firt contact: they were doing restyling work., and the workers woke us up at 8 AM every morning (even on Saturday). It was like to live in an erecting yard: painting, smashing a hammer into a wall and other noises all day. Furthermore we discovered that we had to pay an extra of 12%... more

My mother and I just returned from a 5 night stay at the Posada Mariposa. We both enjoyed our time very much at this quaint little hotel. I've traveled for work and pleasure quite a bit and stayed in all kinds of accomodations( from hostels and Motel 6's, mainstream Hyatts, Marriots, to luxury and boutique hotels such as those of... more

I recently stayed at the Mariposa with my sweetheart for a duration of four nights and absolutely loved my stay. Like most of you, i checked out the reviews before hand but I was more than impressed when I actually got there. My man Axel and the rest of the front desk crew couldn't possibly be any nicer or any... more

This little hotel was perfect for a week stay in Playa. It was very cozy and not hyped up like all the resorts and other hotels. My boyfriend and I loved the location ( 2 minute walk to the beach), right on the strip, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It was just a great atmosphere to be... more

We had a little difficulty finding the Posada Mariposa, as it's on a pedestrian-only street. We arrived an hour earlier than the stated check-in time, and were told that our room wasn't ready yet. Not a big deal, we just wanted to park our bags and go to the beach anyway, but then we were told that our room would... more
