"Opened in 2011 after transforming a 16th-century building into a property modeled after a grand hacienda. The hotel is home to one of the city's most popular rooftop restaurants, Luna Rooftop, which overlooks the city's iconic Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel cathedral; it has 67 guest rooms, suites, and private residences and is just a five-minute walk from Parque Benito Juárez. As Kareema B. Partin, T+L's senior video producer (who visited in the summer of 2024) puts it, "You are surrounded by beautiful accommodations while immersed in a culture that is still carefully preserved. Locals take pride in where they come from, and it shows."," address":null}" - Travel + Leisure Editors
"A high-end, character-rich retreat with 67 rooms, suites, and residences that weaves local craft traditions into its design through hand-carved furniture and colorful artwork. Guests can deepen their connection to regional culture via workshops and classes with local artisans, or head into the countryside for sunrise hot-air balloon launches and guided horseback rides led by ranchers; families are catered to with kids’ crafts, farm visits, and cooking classes. Reviewers praise the food, bar, and spa and often highlight highly attentive service that helps plan celebrations and curated activities." - Sarah Bruning Sarah Bruning Sarah Bruning is the special projects and surveys editor at Travel + Leisure, where she has been on staff since 2018.

"Housed in an enchanting 16th-century Spanish Colonial property within a UNESCO World Heritage city, the hotel channels local history and artistry via distinctive art, upscale dining that honors Mexican heritage, preserved architecture, and hand-carved furniture and wood-beamed ceilings across 67 rooms, suites, and private residences. Amenities include tennis courts, multiple pools, and a spa using Mexican traditions and indigenous ingredients. Nina Ruggiero notes that visiting during Día de los Muertos is special—she stayed in 2019 for the celebration—and highlights the stylish atmosphere, attractive pool, and a rooftop bar with live music and possibly the best view in the city. Valet parking is available for a fee; the property does not offer ADA-designated category rooms but has some ground-level rooms with separate showers and tubs, allows one pet up to 40 pounds for a nightly fee plus VAT, and is moderately priced." - Emily Hochberg Emily Hochberg Emily Hochberg is a writer and editor with over 15 years of experience specializing in travel, lifestyle, home, parenting, and reviews.
