Most hotels close to or in centro are noisy and overpriced. While not in centro, it's certainly within walking distance. We opted not to have breakfast as we had a flight to catch and didn't want to take the time. The only queja was that we specifically chose the more expensive Guelaguetza room because of the jacuzzi. But it quit working after 2 minutes. We mentioned it to management the next day wondering if they'd offer something to compensate, but they only sent an email apology. Which was OK I guess. Overall, a nice place. I'd stay there again.
I think the hotel overall is a great choice for Guanajuato, it is very historical and boutique, away from the hustle of downtown. Very charming and perfect for couples. They have a nice small pool and a green patio in the back where you can sit and enjoy the view. The room decor is really well appointed and the room was so spacious. The only thing to improve in my opinion is the continental breakfast since there are not many choices nearby for a breakfast I think the hotel should offer a nice Mexican style breakfast to their guests.
This is a quaint hotel with excellent service and although a bit outside the main historic area this can be a benefit as it is in a quieter location and this can matter if you happen to visit during the Cervantes festival - like us, we had two rooms and I would recommend staying in those outside the main hotel as they are more private, I would also not recommend the Jacuzzi suite (unless you plan to use it) as it is near some mechanical waterworks that produce some noise. Distance to the center is about 3Km - half of which at least is a pleasant walk. I noticed a review that complained that the breakfast was just coffee and juice - perhaps the customer misunderstood, coffee and juice as well as any one menu item were included and we all found them to be particularly good - best breakfast of the trip.…
My husband and I spent 13 wonderful days in one of the cottage. I was so impressed by the charm and cleanliness of the place. The sculptures are an added treat while walkingbthe most beautiful gardens of ever blooming flowers. This place offers so much more than your average hotel. Not only are you welcomed to partake of the natural herbal teas growing about...they have wild parrots too! Truly remarkable place! Highly recommend. Thank you Bonita and Edwardo!
Everything about this hotel was superb. Location removed enough to be tranquil yet close enough to walk (20-30 min) or take taxi to historic center. Staff were amazingly helpful, attentive and pleasant. Definitely will stay here again next time visit Guanajuato!
I had booked this hotel based on reviews I read, I had no idea how nice it is. From the front, I thought it was a nice historic building, but behind it, up the hill, there's a series of terrace gardens and other rooms that are beautiful and have great views of the valley. They upgraded us to the 'Frida Kahlo' room, or their 'Presidential Suite', which was at the top of the property... good exercise every day, but a lovely room with lovely views. The neighborhood is nice, a relaxing place to walk around, with some reasonably tasty restaurants/cafes near-by. Service was good. Breakfast was OK, not the best, but not bad either. We would certainly stay here again.
Romantic, friendly, quite spot. Can't wait to go back. Close to everything you would want to see, yet it seemed far away that you could relax. Pool was a plus and garden like setting, black berries growing, fruit trees, along the beautiful mountains surrounding you. Walking areas close by, wonderful breakfast every morning. A place to have a drink and enjoy, the beautiful setting.
We took a spur of the moment trip to Guanajuato and couldn't be happier that we did. Chose Quinta Las Acacias for a couple of reasons, mostly because it is very quiet, which it was. What we didn't expect was the level of comfort and hospitality it offers. First off - the room. We had a room with jacuzzi tub (which worked!) with a great view of the hills. Very large, beds comfortable with loads of pillows. Second, the complimentary breakfast is HUGE - really enough to last you until dinner if you eat it late enough. You have a full menu to choose from and it starts off with the most amazing fruit salad - so delicious. The staff are great - very gracious and accommodating. We requested a private Spanish conversation lesson and it was arranged for the next morning no problem! They are truly - a sus ordenes, as they say in Spanish - at your service. There is a small bar behind the check in area where they serve an ice cold Corona - delicious. The restaurant for dinner is VERY good. We had the salmon with side salad one evening and it was excellent. There is a very small and pool that is perfect for a quick dip in the late afternoon. Quite refreshing. We had cocktails, scrabble poolside each day we were there. Just perfect. Yes, it is a bit far from the central historic district, but we walked it. I think upon return, we would walk down and take a taxi back (60 pesos). There are restaurants within walking distance to the hotel and a park directly across the street, so not being close to town is okay - you are not super isolated. So thank you to everyone at Quinta Las Acacias for making our trip to Guanajuato one that we will remember for a long time. Muchas gracias!…
My family needed a little escape, this was the perfect place. We used the jacuzzi tub everyday, the kids especially after jumping in the cool pool. The grounds were beautiful, the view was nice and the staff was superb. They helped us plan out a couple very successful days ( the little boats were a big hit). Thank you
I've stayed at Quinta las Acacias alone, with my husband and with friends 7 times in the last 10 years, most recently this month. Rooms are spacious, so comfortable and artfully decorated in Mexican style. Outdoor spaces include huge and ancient prickly pear cactus overlooking a stone patio, a very blue large jacuzzi, Mexican pots filled with succulents. The staff is exceptionally gracious, in particular the concierge, Karina. The walk to the center of town is about 20 minutes, past coffee and chocolate cafes, local bakeries, a market, school children. If your hope is to be transported into the best of Mexico while retaining comfort, this is your place.
