Andaina Hostel  

In the heart of Oaxaca’s centro — a 5-minute walk from the Zócalo and about 14 minutes on foot from the Church of Santo Domingo de Guzmán. Oaxaca Craft Market sits just 0.2 miles away and Auditorio Guelaguetza is roughly 1.5 miles out. A central, family-friendly hostel base for exploring the city.

Andaina Hostel serves up a social, city-center vibe across 34 guestrooms with microwaves, coffee/tea makers and safes. Expect communal terraces with city views, a library, an arcade/game room and ping-pong — simple, lively spaces that push the hostel energy without the fuss.

Complimentary wireless internet, free self-parking and a 24-hour front desk keep logistics smooth. Family-friendly perks include a children’s playroom and picnic and barbecue areas. On-site services: tour assistance/concierge, laundry and dry cleaning, private check-in/out and daily housekeeping — wake up to city views and a fresh cup from your room.

A computer station and complimentary wireless internet make it easy to stay connected while on the road.
