Casa de Sierra Nevada, a Belmond Hotel

A cluster of beautiful colonial mansions in the heart of San Miguel de Allende, this boutique hotel offers flawless luxury in a magical, old-world setting.

Set across a collection of six colonial mansions on the quaint cobblestone streets of San Miguel de Allende, Casa Sierra Nevada is a tranquil and exclusive option in the city. Entirely on brand and recently fully renovated, this hotel highlights local delights and boasts a luxury travel experience, like all Belmond hotels worldwide. Service is key, and each room comes complete with a personal butler.

With opulent accommodations, the resort boasts 23 suites and 14 rooms -each one unique and rich with history-, no two accommodations are identical. Most feature unique paintings by local artists along with antique furnishings and views of San Miguel de Allende, courtyards, or gardens. Some others feature private plunge pools and breathtaking vistas to the city. In keeping with the colonial style, the bathrooms are talavera tiled and come complete with luxury amenities. Upgrade to a Deluxe Suite for a chance to bathe in a rather unique bronze, freestanding bathtub.

The hotel also has a spa, a heated outdoor pool, two restaurants, two bars, and even its own cooking school. The hotel’s central location also means that the wonderful sights, shops, bars, and restaurants that San Miguel de Allende has to offer, are all within easy walking distance.
