Located in the cobble-stoned street of this colonial city, the boutique hotel of Casa De Sierra Nevada is a mixture of 16^th to 18^th century Spanish colonial buildings.  Its 37 rooms and suites are spread amongst six colonial mansions, including:  Casa del Parque, a fort in the 17^th century and later a customs house catering to the silver trade; and Casa Principal, the former residence of San Miguel de Allende’s Archbishop in 1580 and an official historical landmark. Each casona, or mansion, which features five to seven guest rooms or suites, is unique.  Many feature outdoor courtyards with fountains, small gardens and al fresco corridors.

Guests are integrated into the town itself, making for a true cultural immersion, with the experience akin to living in a beautiful, historic apartment. Each building has an inner courtyard where one can sit and enjoy the evening, with candles creating a romantic ambience. All this is mixed with the fresh, new amenities provided by Casa de Sierra Nevada. To book please call the reservations team on +52 (415) 1527040       or email the Casa de Sirra Nevada reservations department on  reservations@casasn.com .
