01 — About us

An Oaxacan house, murals on every wall

Los Nardos Hostel is a warm, easy-going place in the heart of Oaxaca de Juárez, in the Jalatlaco neighbourhood. Simple, clean rooms, green patios, hand-painted stairways and a rooftop where the whole city opens up at sunset.

Backpackers, families, couples and pets all share the house: it is made for travellers who want to sleep well, cook their own food and walk to everything that matters downtown.
