Hotel Santa Prisca

Hotel Santa Prisca occupies a colonial-era building just off Taxco de Alarcon's main plaza, close enough to the Parroquia de Santa Prisca and the surrounding silver market stalls to reach on foot in a few minutes. The building follows the traditional Taxco layout of rooms arranged around a plant-filled central courtyard, a design common to the town's older, family-run hotels and dating to the colonial period when Taxco's wealth came from nearby silver mines. Rooms are split between Standard rooms and slightly larger Courtyard Rooms, both simply furnished and budget-priced, without air conditioning in some rooms given Taxco's cooler mountain-town climate compared with coastal Guerrero. There is no pool or spa here; the courtyard itself, with its greenery and traditional tilework, serves as the property's main gathering space. An on-site restaurant serves Mexican dishes and is open to both hotel guests and outside visitors, giving it a role as a neighborhood eatery as much as a hotel amenity. The hotel's value lies in its price relative to its central, walkable location: silver shops, the church, and Taxco's cobblestone streets and markets are all within easy reach, making it a practical base for travelers prioritizing budget and location over amenities.
