La Casa Encantada is the choice in Patzcuaro: lovely rooms, fantastic breakfasts, well-managed w/ great staff, comfortable beds, lots of pretty public space and they're tremendously helpful arranging trips around the lake or onward. Michoacan dangerous? Crossing the street in Mexico City is dangerous! Don't miss this beautiful town and hotel. We loved our 4-night stay. more

The experience actually begins with advance communication with the owners, Cynthia and Victoria. They were quick to respond via email and obviously intent upon creating a great experience. They gave us excellent directions and when we arrived, we were not disappointed. The bi-lingual staff were on top of everything, very friendly and helpful, as well as fun and informative regarding... more

After travelling throughout the Colonial area of Mexico for 27 days, the three of us arrived at La Casa Encantada ready for a rest. As we walked through the door and gates, we saw a beautiful fountain garden that was tranquille and so calming. We were greeted by a pleasant man who was very willing to carry our 12 pieces... more

No worries traveling in this area - comfortable and safe. Great area for touring the local indigenous pueblos and seeing all their arts and crafts. more

I just completed my week-long vacation in Patzcauro and I chose to stay at this hotel with some friends. What an amazing find. This hotel has everything that I require: a beautiful and serene environment, enormous rooms and suites, comfortable king-size beds with down comforters, friendly and helpful staff, delicious homemade breakfasts, and great location. Comparing this hotel with other... more

La Casa Encantada was fantastic. Lovely grounds, big comfy room, great breakfast, super location, free parking, and free wifi. And even a welcome bottle of (good Chilean) wine! Only thing to note is that this is a B&B, not a full service hotel--so pay in cash, no 24hr doorman, etc. The town is also great. Aside from beautiful colonial architecture,... more

We stayed here for two nights in June 2009 as part of a trip across Michoacan. First, Patzcuaro is amazing and if you're thinking about visiting, definitely do. Wonderful arts/crafts, architecture, food, warm/friendly people, great plazas. Lovely, lovely, lovely. The hotel itself is stunning. Wonderful local arts and crafts fill each room. We stayed in the San Francisco room, which... more

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Casa Encantada. The colonial house is artfully decorated and the gardens are lovely. Sleeping is very quiet. We were in the Grand Sala (two king beds), and slept in the back bedroom where it was dark and quiet. The front bedroom/living room area may not have been so quiet as it's on... more

My partner and I stayed for two nights at this lovely serene property except for the chatty staff when the office door was left open. Our first breakfast was disappointing in that it lacked variety or choice and the entree served was a very heavy quiche. The next day it was much better; perhaps as a result of an email... more
