About

Boulenc Bed And Bread

Boulenc Bed And Bread sits in Oaxaca's old town, a 9-minute walk from the Rufino Tamayo Museum of Pre-Hispanic Art. The hotel keeps things intimate with just seven rooms, each with city views, and pairs a calm, design-led atmosphere with practical touches like a safe deposit box and 24-hour security.

The hotel is linked to a well-known bakery, which shows up in complimentary daily snacks and a breakfast spread that guests repeatedly praise. A rooftop terrace adds a place to unwind, and the staff, consistently singled out for their warmth, can help arrange tours or transport to nearby villages.

“A chic hotel with incredibly kind staff and a location I truly enjoyed. The king room was beautiful and the bed exceptionally comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, and coffee was available to buy.
