La Casa Azul

Very authentic decor and atmosphere. Our room had a beautiful view of the city. The hotel is at a 5 minute downhill walk from the center of the city. Only drawback was the walk up but in Guanajuato you have to walk everywhere.

So far throughout my travels in Mexico this has been my favourite place to stay. The building itself is full of character, including the room. Very detailed with lots of Mexican art work. The room itself was quite spacious and bed very comfortable with lots of pillows. The room had a great view too. Paulina is lovely and very helpful with local information. I loved it so much (& Guanajuato itself) that I extended my stay by a few nights.

I stayed in the Balcones room. Nice comfortable king bed, separate room for sitting and hearing the fountain in the interior courtyard, with a door to close from the bedroom area the room has 2 balcones, the one in the bedroom is accessible and the room has good natural light, moderate noise from street but pretty quiet at night. I really like that the windows have blackout shutters. Overall a very good location and lovely place to stay. *note - google references a restaurant and bar which doesn't exist if you're wondering. Thank you.

A tranquil spot with large rooms, comfortable beds, a beautiful garden, centrally located yet very quiet. Friendly staff and very affordable. I highly recommend staying here.

A perfectly good gallery with many interesting and unique pieces. The bronze works were amazing. The small fee is perfectly fine for this wonderful collection

Beautiful place, an artist's dream house with color and design and plants! Paulina is a warm and gracious host. We stayed for 10 days in January . Our only problem was a lack of hot water at times in the sink.

Can’t describe enough how beautiful the house was!!! Totally fell in love with it, it’s a shame we had to leave. Paulina was super nice and caring. Thanks for having us!!!

Travelers be aware!! The hotel helped me book a 6:30 am taxi to catch a 7 am bus to Mexico City. It’s a 15 mins drive. I waited at the lobby since 6:15 am and at 7 am the taxi still didn’t show up. During the wait, there was no empty taxi passing by the hotel at all since it’s on the uphill. The nearest Uber is 15 mins away. And hotel doesn’t know any other drivers but the one that never showed up. I had to walk all the way down to the town center and found taxis there. Needless to say, I missed my bus and had to buy a new ticket. Always be prepared to hail a taxi by yourself and leave as early as possible. Regarding the hotel itself, my room doesn’t have any 3-prong plug and the sink has an unbearable smell from the sewer. The terrible smell may be a common issue for old hotels in Mexico. The tip is to always leave the sink cap on to block the smell. The room is cleaned every day. The location of the hotel is great if you don’t mind climbing steep uphill. The front desk is very friendly. They can’t speak English. We communicated using Google Translator the entire time.
