hotels, rental homes, B&Bs
The small town of San Miguel is centered around the Jardín, where you’ll find restaurants, shops, cafes, bars, museums, boutiques, street vendors, the bullring, and more. Part of the city’s charm is the many boutique hotels and casitas throughout the city. The expat culture and artist roots, combined with gorgeous architecture, has created a luxurious selection of B&Bs and boutique hotels of varying sizes. The Belmond’s Casa de Sierra Nevada pioneered the trend of adapting homes into luxe hotel rooms that is prevalent throughout the city. Do not be fooled-- the original Spanish colonial walls, hide amazing luxury and modern amenities and design behind their doors. Anywhere close to the Jardín is convenient for restaurants and shopping but also prone to noise from church bells, mariachis, and fireworks. Around the quiet Juarez Park, there’s the 67-room Rosewood, and smaller boutique properties such as Hotel Matilda, Posada Corazón, and Antigua Villa Santa Monica. Whether you prefer polished luxury, colorful local flair, or a homey B&B, there is no bad choice! We have listed several hotels and rental options below; however, we encourage you to explore the various options available including private home rentals. All wedding events are in the Historic Center (Zona Centro), where everything is walkable. However, the streets are cobblestone and often steep. Taxis are readily available and should not be more than $3 USD or so anywhere within the main city. During this time of decreased travel, you may find better deals than are posted on the websites, even with our wedding discount. Be sure to check out Booking.com, to ensure you are getting the best rate!
