About
Posada Independencia
Posada Independencia is an intimate, 8-room guesthouse set on Avenida De La Independencia, roughly 650 metres from Oaxaca's lively Zócalo. The property centres on a plant-filled patio and garden, where guests can sit out with coffee or a book. The Mexican Textile Museum is 400 metres away, and the Filatelia Museum is within easy walking distance.
Rooms look onto the patio, and the Deluxe King Suite adds a city view and a separate shower. Breakfast — coffee, cereal, and fresh fruit — is included, and the small scale means the staff know regulars by name. Free Wi‑Fi is available in public areas, though pets are not permitted.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Small property, limited rooms — With only 8 rooms, availability is tight — book well ahead for peak times.
- No pets allowed — If you travel with a dog or cat, you'll need to look elsewhere.
- Basic breakfast — Coffee, cereal, and fruit — it's included, but don't expect a hot cooked spread.
- Street noise possible — The central avenue location can bring traffic sounds, and the lower comfort score hints at room for improvement.
