Villa Maria Cristina

Set on a tree-lined boulevard on the outskirts of Guanajuato, Villa Maria Cristina feels like a private residence, but this collection of renovated neoclassical mansions woven amongst gardens and a swimming pool is a sumptuous all-suite hotel offering a luxurious base fin Guanajuato.

The 37 suites have a period charm with lofty ceilings, French-style furniture, polished wooden floors, and plush bedding. State-of-the-art technology including iPod docking stations and Bang & Olufsen sound systems are included, while the bathrooms feature hydro-massage or steam baths.

Serving contemporary Mexican cuisine with a local and international wine list, Teresita Restaurant is considered one of the best in town. For a more casual meal, Colombia serves pizza and grills in one of the pretty courtyards.

The delights of Guanajuato are close by, but there’s plenty to keep you entertained at the hotel including a small movie theatre, swimming pool, and a spa with a Roman-style covered pool and treatments.
