What a great stay I had this past week. Couldn't have been nicer. Got to my room #10 and said, "Yes." Rooms are critical to my happiness on a vacation, and this one was perfect. Clean and comfortable. Windows that open looking north over the tranquil (sometimes noisy--Mother's Day Ranchero bands forever, but then that's Mexico for you. Wherever you... More

What a wonderful surprise to find this charming cottage-like hotel in the middle of the desert. We had stayed at a competitor hotel previously and Hotel Los Arcos will be our choice in the future. Upon arrival we we didn't just register, we were warmly greeted by the owners, Tom and Lynn. Their welcome and graciousness set the the tone... More

This was our second visit to Banamici in a group; our first stay at "Los Arcos" - hopefully, not our last. From the time that we arrived until we left, Tom & Lynn made our visit special, if not unique. The accomodations are ample, the courtyard a magical place of well-tended plants, trees, and flowers. An oasis in the Sonoran... More

The accommodations are excellent and the hosts charming. Banámichi is clean quiet and tranquil. Hospitality in the style of Sonora and simple beauty throughout. Less is more. A great stop on the Rio Sonora route.

We stayed at Los Arcos the last two nights and can echo all the other good reviews about it. The property is beautiful, clean, relaxing and instead of feeling like you are staying in a hotel you more feel like you are staying at some friends place who just happens to have a 10 room hacienda! I think my favorite... More

I was "warned" that the hotel was very special and that I'd love it before I arrived but even this did not prepare me for what I found when I got there. The simple exterior gave way to a highly decorative courtyard with a warm, relaxing atmosphere that made you feel immediately at home. The owners Tom and Lynn met... More

Excellent rooms. Quality comfortable beds. Meals were great, home cooked. This was a great place to stay during the Rio Sonora MTB Race weekend.

I had read about Hotel Los Arcos in a BMW motorcycle magazine. This was clearly a place I must add to my travels through Mexico. Since i would be traveling through Sonora near the conclusion of my motorcycle ride I decided to bookmark the hotel for my last night in Mexico. What a surprise when I arrived hot and thirsty... More
