This hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Guanajuato. El callejón del beso, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, shops are all walking distance. The only down fall for us is that they don't have hotel parking. Other than that we loved the hotel.

Great place - included breakfasts features many choices of both Mexican and gringo entrees. Location is very central for activities in the central part of town. As a fellow poet, a delight to stay in a facility where every room honours another writer. Staff very friendly, accommodating, and forgiving of those of us with minimal Spanish. A special shout out to our amiable camareros, Martin y Fernando!

This is a sweet hotel in a great location. Quiet, super clean and very well run. Staff is excellent. My booking included a nice breakfast. Loved the quiet open terrace on the 4th floor, perfect for getting some work done. Internet was strong too. Room was not fancy but clean, with a comfortable bed.

Great location in a flat part of town and walkable to everything in the Historic Area. Good restaurants and plenty of public transportation. The receptionist was expecting us and we felt welcome immediately. A nice young man took our heavy suitcases to the room and retrieved them at check-out time. The waiters in the breakfast room are professional and pleasant. Nice menu choices and the food and coffee all excellent. MY only suggestion is to supply a hot water kettle and coffee/tea in the room. We will return to this hotel on our next visit to Guanjuanto.

Nice hotel a couple block from center of town. Staff were nice and dining room for breakfast was nice to avoid morning chill. Room was super clean but pretty small (family suite) for 4 adults. No A/C and only a space heater but worked well.

Highly recommended. The location is excellent, and the hotel has beautiful old-style character while being very clean, quiet, and safe. The breakfast is well presented and enjoyable (dine-in only); I was only able to try it once due to an early checkout, but I wish I could have had it again. Overall, a lovely hotel with friendly service.
