This was possibly the best vacation stay I’ve ever had! The owners have clearly put love and care and meticulous intentionality behind every detail of the property which is simply a visual feast! Our room, which was the Barbara was spacious overlooked the pool. Everyone who worked there was friendly and kind. One Young man in particular stood out. His name was Elihu and we saw him every morning as he served us the most delicious breakfast of fruit and Chilaquiles with eggs and yogurt and granola and coffee and orange juice. It was heavenly and he was phenomenal. He also brought us a bottle of wine as we sat by the pool one morning.
I cannot recommend this property more highly! And the next time I’m coming back. I’m renting the presidential suite! Thank you to the owners and management for making such a heaven on earth a real reality for travelers!

The entire property is beautiful and immaculately maintained and the staff is professional and friendly. The location is perfect. The center of town is an easy walk away and, in the opposite direction, there is a pretty dam with ducks. There are also several good restaurants within a five minute walk. The hotel restaurant is also excellent.

This is a lovely hotel with beautiful, large, classy rooms that have a bit of a colonial feel, and the property has several extra benefits with two pools and spa facilities, We loved the location slightly outside of the very crowded historic center, making our stay move quiet and less chaotic. Bed was very comfortable, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the housekeeping is exceptionally professional. However, there are a few things that could be improved to make this truly a 5 star stay. Most notably, the hotel plays constant music throughout the hotel starting early in the morning (around 7am) that completely disrupts the tranquility of the place. You hear it at the pool, sitting outside for a meal, and even in your rooms and it's mostly like 80s disco and rock, completely out of place for the atmosphere of the hotel. It's so unnecessary and annoying. The second area that doesn't meet the potential of the hotel is the food. We ate at the restaurant twice and had room service once and in all three occasions it was gouts poor quality, especially for the prices they charged

Very attentive, helful, and nice staff. From the valet parking, recepcionist, and the cleaning ladies. All of them deserved two thumbs up. Very nice and spacious room with 2 bathrooms, each with bathtube and each with massage water jets. Everything was excellent, including the price. The only suggestion would be for the TVs to have platforms, e.g., netflix for us visitors to sign in and out. Thank you 😀 😊 my wife and I we will go back definitely.

A Hidden Gem: Exceptional Stay at Villa Maria Cristina

Villa Maria Cristina exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed by the warm and friendly staff who were incredibly helpful throughout my stay. Their genuine hospitality made my visit truly special.

The property itself is stunning—every corner is a visual delight. The architecture and design of the buildings are so unique and beautifully preserved, making it a treat to explore. My room was spacious, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully designed for comfort.

One of the highlights was the free parking, which added convenience to an already flawless experience. From the serene ambiance to the exceptional service, my entire day there was among the best I’ve had.

If you’re looking for a luxurious yet welcoming retreat, I can’t recommend Villa Maria Cristina enough. It’s a perfect blend of beauty, comfort, and top-tier service. I can’t wait to return

Hotel with beautiful grounds, pool and gym

Resort type of hotel spread out on beautiful grounds with large pool and well equipped gym. Many terraces and sitting areas as well as a full service restaurant are nicely integrated in between guest rooms. Some rooms have limited daylight due to their location and small windows.
The reception personal spoke limited English and beyond calling us a taxi no concierge services were available.

Una estancia muy placentera, el hotel está como para no salir de ahí, las instalaciones muy bonitas y el área de spa, con su alberca climatizada, sauna, vapor, jacuzzi fue lo mejor.

Lo único es que les recomiendo elegir los cuartos de arriba ya que nos tocó en el piso 1 y se escucha mucho ruido en la noche y muy tempranito ya que está pegado al restaurant. Igual un mantenimiento a los baños ya que emiten ruidos raros y en el área de spa tiene un olor feo.

Incredible place to stay for tour of Guanajuato

We loved this stunning place and would like to come back soon. Breakfasts were superb, (coffee so so). We ate dinner one night and it was disappointing. Rooms are quiet, roomy and comfortable. Most require 2-4 flights of stairs which enables views of the historic buildings and mountains in the distance .
Staff was outstanding at every level. Spa was enjoyable with first rate massage therapists on the team.

Fantastic hotel

We loved the historical and beautiful setting of the facility. We enjoyed a superb lunch and dinner and English speaking staff. Sometimes it takes long time to get minor service done (bringing coffee supply, for instance) and the AC system was so old and loud, yet we were so glad to choose this hotel. We also wish there were screen windows/doors so that we could enjoy fresh air. The Spa ladies were great too!

Beautiful and spacious suites, fabulous bathrooms, lovely pool area, and wonderful service. Absolute perfections except that restaurant should be a bit more haute cuisine to suit the high level of this hotel. Very enjoyable stay!

Very nice hotel in quiet surrounding. Friendly and helpful staff. 15min walk to city centre. Only issue was that TV broke first day and could not be fixed the following days. Got offered a different suite but declined as it was less pleasing.

Hotels.com should be honest with their quotes.

The stay was good. The only problem is that Hotels.com does not provide clear prices. Advertises cheap but at the time f payment shows the real fees that are way higher and appeared in smaller font. I was surprised when I found out that the cost was almost 5000 pesos for 3 nights, not the 456 pesos per night they advertise.

You definitely have to try this place, it’s reasonable, peaceful, clean and beautiful… the only 1 start I’ll give to this hotel; at the time of my check out, the way things were handle really made me feel uncomfortable, I have never taking advantage of places or steel from them specially if they have all your personal information, if I can’t afford I won’t even try.
Thank you to Juliana kind and friendly!!

The grounds of the property are beautiful and well-maintained. The room was dark, but the bathrooms are large and had good amenities. The spa area was not working correctly. The hot tub was cold, the pool was hot, the steam room was not working. The sauna was working though. That was disappointing.

Best hotel in Guanajuato City

This hotel never stopped surprising us. From outside it looks like a little nice hotel, but once you enter, the thing is big, every room is separate from each other, it has 2 pools (one outside and one in the spa), 2 Jacuzzis, Spa, even it's own cinema-like room, where you can go and put netflix or blu-rays, etc. The people there are very nice and have great service and the room has absolutely everything you need to have a comfy stay. Loved it.

Luxurious haven in wonderful Guanajuato

Second time at Villa Maria Cristina and the experience was as outstanding as the first. The hotel is a beautiful property with exceptional attention to detail and luxurious rooms. The restaurant is in a tranquil and wonderfully romantic setting for dinner and breakfast. The hostel is located away from the bustle of town but an easy 30 minutes on foot. Overall an outstanding experience.

The photos do not do this breathtaking property justice. So much attention to detail - we were happier here than we've been staying at the Four Seasons! Exceptional food, outstanding service and a magical environment. We enjoyed the 15-20 minute walk into the historic district - safe and clean, plus a taste of the real city. It also allowed for us to enjoy some peace and quiet in the evenings. We already have plans to come back and really maximize the amenities. We missed out on the gorgeous underground spa and that seemed like a big miss!

Take a closer look on your bill when checking out

For a 5 star hotel I expect higher English level from the staff. I ordered room service for breakfast but once they didn't show up. Told the hotel about it and didn't say anything. When I checked out I found a lot of items are not consumed by me. Then the hotel explained that those costs belong to another room and they were already paid. When I added the rest together the price he showed me was still 3000 pesos more expensive than what I should pay. The most scandalous thing is that the waiter for room service added tips by himself on my bill. I've never seen this level of cheating and it damaged completely my view about this hotel and I'll definitely tell everyone I know never to come to this hotel.

Stunning property, great facilities, peaceful area

This is a gorgeous property, about 15 minutes walk or 5 minutes by taxi from the city center. It is very peaceful and calm, and really well maintained. There is a pool, a jacuzzi, a spa, a gym with high-end equipment, a playroom for kids, a small movie theatre and lots of beautiful terraces and corners to just sit and enjoy.
The rooms are spacious, and the bathrooms beautiful. Bathroom amenities are from Occitane. Some of the rooms have windows facing the corridors, this is based on the property's setup.

Five stars, despite hot water

Only problem with this perfect retreat in Guanajuato was the hot water for the shower. It was not consistent. That aside, the staff was amazing and gave us a tour of the hotel upon check-in. The rooms were so beautiful. It would have been nice to get a cup or two of coffee free with the room stay. I highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful, maze-like hotel

This hotel is beautiful! I stayed here last November and it was about a 10/15 minute drive from the downtown bustle of Guanajuato. I preferred staying away from downtown as I was in town for a wedding and wanted to sleep peacefully (downtown Guanajuato can be very loud at night). As for the hotel itself, it is beautiful. Walking through the hotel was like a maze, at each corner there was some unique architecture. The rooms are clean and provide you with name brand toiletries. I ate dinner and brunch at their main restaurant, the food was great. The staff was more than accommodating. Overall the experience was very nice & my only regret is that I didn't stay longer. During my trip to Mexico, I stayed in three different hotels. This by far, was my favorite. If you are visiting Guanajuato, I recommend staying here.

great hotel in guanajuato

we loved the hotel .. great pool..
very large junior suites..generous amount of nespresso capsules
the manager was very attentive to our suggestions , and concerns..

indoor pool very relaxing, but sauna and steam room took a long time to fully function..
although a large amount of people working at the hotel , nobody at the spa to ask for directions .. just a minor detail.. a beautiful hotel , very well maintained , that makesl
you want to come back.
.we had lunch .. very good service , expected more from a relais chateau in terms o f excellence of cuisine ..
a bit pricey for guanajuato , but overall we enjoyed it a lot ..
cannot wait to go back for a relaxing vacation..

This was my first time staying at Villa María Cristina and it won’t be the last. This hotel is a hidden gem in the heart of Guanajuato! Lovely and luxury rooms with the most incredible accommodations (sauna, heated pool, steam room, jacuzzi, etc). The stuff was exceptional!! I have stayed in different hotels in Europe, US and Mexico and no one compares to Villa María Cristina from the minute you check in to the minute you check out, they make you feel like royalty. Definitely booking this hotel next time I come back to Guanajuato.

We loved this hotel. It was so beautiful, and the staff was very professional and friendly. It’s about a mile into the city center, but we like to walk, so it wasn’t a problem. Taxis are readily available to those who don’t want to walk. It was nice and peaceful at night, being away from the center of town. Will definitely stay again on our next visit.

Cannot recommend too highly

American couple from San Francisco, both of Hispanic heritage who have combined the best of both cultures. Impeccable property with absolutely nothing forgotten down to the slightest exquisite details including Egyptian cotton sheets. Each breakfast a culinary treat. Just far enough from the center to be relatively quiet unlike the rest of the city...yet quite walkable or a $2.00 taxi at the end of the day when you don't want to walk back uphill. Cannot recommend too highly. An absolute find.

Villa Maria Cristina is a small luxury hotel in a quiet area of Guanajuato within walking distance to the historic center. The property is beautiful and the rooms are spacious and very nice indeed, with extremely comfortable beds. The hotel has a spa and wonderful and large heated pool. The restaurant is located in a beautifully decorated dinning room with the option of dinning on the outdoor patio. The food is outstanding as well as the wine selection. Villa Maria Cristina is definitely a treasure of a hotel with outstanding service and amenities as well. One of the best hotels we have stayed in world-wide. Will definitely return there.
