From the moment I stepped into the elegant, art-inspired lobby to my cozy and well-appointed room, everything felt thoughtfully designed. The bed was incredibly comfortable—perfect for a good night's sleep after a day of exploring. What really stood out? The natural hot springs pool.

For a relaxing getaway with great value, this hotel is an absolute gem. I’ll definitely be coming back!

We absolutely loved staying at El Marques Hacienda—this place truly captured the soul of traditional Mexican charm. From the moment we arrived, the unique architecture and authentic atmosphere made us feel like we were stepping into a storybook. The rooms were clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with local touches that added character. Staff were warm and attentive without being intrusive, always ready to help with recommendations or directions. Location is perfect—just a short ride into Guanajuato city center, making it easy to explore the historic streets and vibrant markets. We especially enjoyed relaxing in the garden during sunrise, sipping coffee surrounded by lush greenery. This isn’t just a hotel—it’s an experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking to immerse themselves in real Mexican culture while enjoying comfort and style.
Holiday Inn Express Guanajuato
Staying at Holiday Inn Express Guanajuato was an absolute delight. The value for money is outstanding—especially considering how quiet and peaceful the location is, far from the tourist crowds but still convenient for exploring. I loved the peaceful atmosphere; it made for a restful night's sleep, perfect for travelers who prioritize tranquility. The breakfast was a real highlight—fresh eggs cooked to perfection, fluffy and rich in flavor, plus local dishes that added a nice authentic touch. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained throughout our stay. Staff were friendly and helpful without being intrusive.

If you're looking for a reliable, comfortable base with great food and excellent value, this hotel is definitely worth considering. Would highly recommend for a stress-free, enjoyable stay in Guanajuato.
Manzano B&B
Staying at Manzano B&B was a delightful experience, especially during the Cervantino Festival when the city center gets crowded and hectic. Located just outside the main tourist area, this cozy little guesthouse offers a peaceful retreat without sacrificing convenience. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming—warm, friendly, and genuinely attentive throughout my stay. Despite its budget-friendly price, the quality of service and attention to detail stood out. Clean rooms, quiet surroundings, and a homey atmosphere made it feel like a true escape. I’d highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone visiting Guanajuato looking for comfort, charm, and value. Will definitely be back.
Hotel Villa de la Plata
Staying at Hotel Villa de la Plata in Guanajuato was a mixed experience. The location is convenient and the property has a nice charm, but the rooms definitely need more maintenance. The bathrooms and kitchen are in poor condition—some appliances are outdated or missing entirely, making cooking difficult. The windows don’t seal properly, and one of the hallway bathrooms had a window that wouldn’t open. Several light bulbs were burnt out, adding to the sense of neglect. While the overall vibe of the place is appealing, it’s clear that regular upkeep has been overlooked. For travelers who value comfort and attention to detail, this might be something to consider before booking. A little more care in maintenance could go a long way in improving the guest experience.
Hotel Hacienda de Cobos
I stayed at Hotel Hacienda de Cobos for two nights while exploring Guanajuato, and the location was definitely a highlight—just a 20 to 25-minute walk from the city center, and even closer to the Museo de las Momias up in the hills. The neighborhood vibe is authentic and quiet, which I appreciated. However, the building itself feels quite old, and that shows in the room amenities. The Wi-Fi was weak, and since the TV relies on the same connection, some channels loaded poorly or didn’t play at all. There were also noticeable plumbing issues—I couldn’t get hot water at the sink, and despite reporting it, nothing was ever fixed. Breakfast was included but very limited: only three options available, with everything else extra. The menu was entirely in Spanish, and only one staff member occasionally spoke English, so communication was frustrating. Overall, the hotel felt undermanaged, with little effort to address guest concerns. It’s clear the team isn’t proactive about improvements, which makes it hard to recommend unless you’re specifically looking for a budget stay in a historic area.
Hotel Camino de Piedra
Excellent as always! The hotel maintains its high standard with a welcoming atmosphere and attentive service. My only minor concern is that it takes a while for hot water to come through, resulting in some water waste during the wait. However, this small issue doesn't take away from the overall fantastic experience. Great value, clean rooms, and a peaceful stay—definitely planning to return.
Casona San Cayetano Suites & Lofts & Spa by Sce
It’s been a while since our last stay at San Cayetano, but the recent renovations completely exceeded our expectations. The pool area is stunning, and the adjacent relaxation zone is peaceful and perfect for unwinding in the afternoon. High-speed Wi-Fi covers every corner, and the spacious, freshly renovated rooms are spotless and incredibly comfortable. We slept like babies at night—no noise whatsoever. Plus, having secure parking right on-site is a game-changer; just leave your car here and take a quick taxi into downtown Guanajuato, where vehicles can be a hassle. Everything about this place feels thoughtfully designed, from the ambiance to the service. An outstanding experience in a beautifully reimagined hotel—definitely worth returning to.
Hotel Casa Autora 40
Staying at Hotel Casa Autora 40 in Guanajuato was a fantastic experience overall. The location is ideal—just a short walk from the city center, with plenty of local restaurants and attractions nearby. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated with authentic Mexican charm. I especially appreciated the great value for money and the warm, helpful staff. The only minor downside is the lack of on-site parking, but it’s clearly mentioned during booking, so there were no surprises. For travelers who don’t mind leaving their car elsewhere or using public transport, this is a perfect choice. Highly recommend this charming boutique stay to anyone looking to immerse in the real spirit of Guanajuato.
Casa de Colores
My stay at Casa de Colores was absolutely fantastic. The common areas are beautifully decorated with a vibrant, artistic flair, and the terrace offers an incredible view that makes it perfect for relaxing with a morning coffee or evening drink. The room was spacious and comfortable, with excellent shower pressure—no complaints there. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable throughout my visit. I especially appreciated the quiet neighborhood; it was so peaceful, making for a restful night’s sleep. Plus, the hotel is just a short walk from the city center—super convenient for exploring on foot. One thing to note: the room only opens to an internal courtyard, not directly to the outside, but honestly, that didn’t bother me at all—it actually added to the intimate, serene atmosphere. Overall, the value for money is outstanding. I’d highly recommend this gem if you’re looking for a charming, well-located retreat in Guanajuato.
Hotel Casona del Truco
Staying at Hotel Casona del Truco was an absolute delight! The moment we arrived, Pipo the adorable dog greeted us with warmth, and the front desk staff were equally welcoming and attentive—always ready to assist with any request. The location is unbeatable, just a short walk from the heart of Guanajuato, surrounded by charm and character. The property itself is wonderfully unique, with original architecture and stylish details that make it feel like a true gem. One thing to note: there's no on-site parking, but the team kindly provided clear directions to safe nearby spots—no hassle at all. I’d absolutely stay here again if I ever return to Guanajuato. Thank you for such a memorable experience!
Casa Nada Hotel
This is my second time staying at this hotel, and I’m just as impressed as the first. The service is outstanding, the rooms are beautiful, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The only minor hiccup was a temporary water issue, but the staff responded immediately and resolved it with great efficiency. Overall, the experience was fantastic—warm hospitality, excellent facilities, and great value. I’ll definitely be back.
