I spent two nights in Villa Maria Cristina in January 2011. Wonderful! It is still in walking distance to the city center of Guanajuato and simply a jewel. Don't miss having breakfast on the sunroof with a sunbath session afterwards. And the sauna/swimming pool in the evening. This is onenof the hotels where you might forget that you actually wanted...

We stayed at the Villa Maria Cristina for three nights following a five night stay in San Miguel de Allende. This hotel is an upscale sanctuary with a definitely european feel. Like others have mentioned it is a somewhat significant walk from the sights, and one that you probably want to do only once a day. Check-in and check-out was... More

My husband and I stayed her in April 2010 at the end of a trip to Queretaro and San MIguel. The property is fabulous and the restoration of this former mansion is perfectly done. The room was large with fine moulding, furnishings, linens and flooring. Everything was in excellent condition. We enjoyed the quiet location but easily walked into town.... More

We really couldn't have asked for more. First, our tarvel agent had made a major mistake with our booking, and the entire staff at the hotel went out of it s way to calm us, reassure us, and then handle all the details of correcting the error. We found our suites extremely comfortable and sleeping was enhanced by the super... More

We are gay couple from Brooklyn. We travelled around various colonial cities on our trip. We drive from Mexico City with this hotel in mind - no reservation. They recommend we not take the cheapest room (Patio Suite) as the bed would be too small (and from other reviews it seems like that was the right decision). We booked the... More

We chose this hotel because it was one of the only hotels in Guanajuato that had a gym. Although check in time was at 3pm, we arrived early thinking they could store our luggage while we went out exploring. We were surprised to find out that they had upgraded our room because our original room was not ready. The room... More

Pros: -Rooms and common spaces are stylishly decorated, comfortable and immaculately clean. Well laid out, with outlets in the right places, lots of light switches and dimmers, air conditioner that worked well and quietly, iPod docking station, and room safe. Bed was big, soft and comfortable, with nice linens and pillows. It was very much like the Four Seasons, but... More

I echo all the other positive reviews on this hotel--beautiful building and grounds, spacious and luxurious rooms, great bathroom, and good location (15 min walk to city center). But there was one issue we had, perhaps specific to the room we stayed in, that made the stay less than ideal. My wife and I booked a double room through hotels.com,... More

We recently came back from a vacation in Mexico. We spent our last two nights at the stunning and comfortable Villa Maria Cristina. The hotel has 13 suites and is about a 25 minute walk to the center. We walked back and forth without any problem. There are taxis everywhere for those that prefer not to walk! The hotel has... More

My husband and I stayed for 5 nights in December. We loved the hotel for so many reasons. Unfortunately, the bed in our room was a double, if not smaller, and we are used to a queen. We asked to be moved to a room with a larger bed but they would only accomodate us if we paid more than... More
