Casa Carmen--a comfortable destination including incredible food. Breakfast was served daily and lunch every day but Sunday. This home away from home was located just a couple of blocks from the Jardin, so it was possible to take off on foot almost anywhere in town. The owner, Cynthia was on hand daily to help you with any questions about directions... More

Cynthia and her staff were incredibly welcoming. We had 2 rooms, both were lovely. They have a computer for guest use and a television. The location is perfect, about 2 blocks from the main square where we enjoyed a free concert.The bakery next door offers a creative brunch menu and good cappuccino. During the week and Saturdays, breakfast and lunch... More

As the growing expat presence threatens to tart up San Miguel with too many slick boutiques and upscale restaurants, Casa Carmen is a refreshing reminder that luxury and comfort can be much more simple. The 400-year-old courtyard building is beautifully maintained. It's clean, solid, and authentic - and wears its historical patina well. The level of service is warm, personal,... More

i had the deep pleasure of hosting a painting retreat with the alluring destination of san miguel de allende. casa carmen seemed the most fitting home for our group and a charming ample courtyard for our creative needs. think enormous canvases, easels, a wild array of paints, paint brushes, and enough room for fifteen passionate artists to follow their muse....

Casa Carmen is a great "home away from home." A very open, welcome atmosphere created by Cynthia, Carolina and the rest of the staff.There are 11 rooms in a 400 year old building with an open courtyard where guests can relax in the sun around the fountain, meet other guests, read and just absorb the warm atmosphere. The full breakfast... More

Every meal I ate at the location was delicious and meticulously presented. The staff are very kind and Cynthia and Carolina are gracious and generous. The... More

About three short blocks from El Jardin, the central square where all the activity takes place. Woke up each morning looking at lovely brick ceiling with wooden beams and glass block skylight. Comfortable bed, some early morning street noise due to open window. Room had desk, two night stands with drawers and a dresser. Lots of hangers in closet. Side... More

We loved this hotel. The rooms were well appointed, clean, and cozy. The courtyard is absolutely gorgeous with a fountain and flowers. A great place to sit and relax. There are wonderful little touches including tea, lemonade, and tequila. Cynthia is a very attentive host, and her staff is very professional. The food is great. We would definitely stay here...

A little disappointed at for $150 dlls a night I expected a clean/new or remodeled place. It's an old house with a gorgeous courtyard. The cook and staff saved the day, great people, good location, but I don't think I would stay there again unless their prices were lowered. Food is included though, but generally you will only have breakfast... More
