Frequently asked questions about hostels in Oaxaca

  • What are the most affordable attractions for backpackers to visit in Oaxaca, Mexico?

    For budget travellers in Oaxaca, exploring the Centro Histórico is free and offers incredible architecture like the Templo de Santo Domingo and the Zocalo. The many free walking tours are a great way to learn about the city's history. Visiting the artisan markets, like the Mercado Benito Juárez, is also inexpensive and a fantastic way to experience local life and find affordable souvenirs. A hike up Monte Albán, while involving a bus fare, offers stunning views for a relatively small cost.

    Among the hostels in Oaxaca, Casa Losodeli & Coworking- Adults Only, Azul Cielo Hostel and Iguana Hostel Oaxaca are the most popular ones.

  • What are some unmissable, lesser-known spots in Oaxaca, Mexico?

    Many overlook the peaceful Hierve el Agua, with its petrified waterfalls and stunning views. The small town of Teotitlán del Valle, known for its beautiful hand-woven rugs, offers a more authentic experience than some of the larger tourist traps.

  • What are the best hostels with a pool in Oaxaca?

  • What fun and budget-friendly events or festivals are happening in Oaxaca, Mexico?

    The Guelaguetza, held annually in July, is a massive celebration of Oaxacan culture, though it is a major event. Smaller, more local celebrations like the Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) in October/November offer a more intimate experience, with many free community events and altars displayed throughout the city and surrounding villages. The Noche de Rábanos (Night of the Radishes) in December is a unique and festive display of radish carvings.

    Staying in a smaller, family-run hotel or guesthouse often provides more opportunities for interaction.
