Fantastic colonial hotel in a perfect location in the center of the old city of Guanajuato .. beautiful breakfast room with towering stone walls with a fabulous and delicious breakfast selection. Hotel employes incredibly caring and helpful and friendly. Within walking distance of many of the must see sites to see in Guanajuato. Room was very very nice.. bathroom a little undersized but definitely clean and functional. One of the best boutique hotels where we have ever stayed !

Locally owned hotel and it’s a beautiful property! It’s in the downtown area and it is at the perfect level for everything nearby (other places are really steep). Hotel was helpful with helping me navigate parking. Make sure to go upstairs to the terraza at some point!
