Hacienda El Santuario

0 1 2 3 4

A gem in the heart of San Miguel de Allende, one of Mexico’s most alluring colonial cities, Hacienda Santuario brims with atmosphere. Adorned with hundreds of items of folk art, vibrant fabrics and artefacts, this intimate boutique hotel is unmistakably Mexican in flavour. With around 30 guest rooms, a restaurant, picturesque patio gardens and terraces alive with bourgainvillea, it’s an inviting retreat to watch the world go by between exploring timeless cobblestone streets and art galleries. Hacienda El Santuario has been praised in Condé Nast Traveller as one of the top 10 best hotels in Mexico.

What our clients say

Easily the best hotel - could not fault it - great location and facilities and food. Very comfy beds.

"Marvellous-a breathtaking sight with an itinerary that suited us perfectly."
FL, Dewsbury Mar 2014
Friendly knowledgeable guide. Sugar Mill valley was more commercialized than anticipated but still an interesting and enjoyable experience.
NT Darlington Feb 2015
As expected, the music was wonderful, especially with dancing in the cultural centre in Vinales.
JR, London Mar 2014
Faultless service, could not do enough to help. Would recommend highly, particularly for the positive attitude of their house/serving staff, guides and drivers.
