Hotels near Parroquia de nuestro Patrono Señor San Jose, Guanajuato

A very beautiful hotel with a very small door opening. It is a little inconvenient to park in a narrow road at the entrance, but it is still possible to quickly drop off your luggage. The name Art Hotel is not an exaggeration. It has an artistic atmosphere, and many places are beautifully photographed. The view is also first-rate, the small courtyard outside this twin room can see the colorful houses of Guanajuato, which are very good during the day and night. The geographical position is superior, just in the small town, quiet in the middle of noisy, a few minutes walk to the most lively central area and various attractions.

The location is excellent, tens of meters away from the church, the surrounding environment is very good, even if the evening is very late pedestrians. The rooms are large and furnished with good service. English is a little bit worse. highly recommended.

Loud atmosphere late into the night, ridiculously tiny bathroom, but otherwise comfortable. But watch out for taxi scams. The fee from the airport is always around 600 pesos. That’s what it was from the airport to this hotel. When it was time to depart the hotel (11:45 on Sunday, June 4) we asked the front desk clerk to call us a cab. He did and explained that it would be $600, but that $200 was to be paid to his colleague at the hotel who he called the “agent” and the remaining $400 would be paid to the driver. Unusual but okay with me. When we got into the cab the hotel ”agent” stated $600 (in Spanish) so that I and the driver could hear it. I said in terrible Spanish “$200 to you and $400 to him, right?” And he nodded. So, we get to the airport and I hand the driver $500 thinking it’s the $400 plus $100 tip. (Remember these are pesos). The driver says “no, $600.” I say no $400 to you and $200 I gave at the hotel. We argue but the cab driver behind us starts honking his horn because he sees what is happening and our driver suddenly takes the $500 and leaves. I think the driver behind us knew I was being scammed and intervened. I am convinced the guy at the hotel and the driver conspired to cheat us because I’m an older American. I also believe the desk clerk was in on it too. The whole split taxi fee didn’t make sense. It left a bad feeling for us after what was otherwise a pleasant stay. So my rating reflects it and I hope that hotel management responds. Employees should never be involved in scamming their customers.

性價比比較高的一家酒店，到達是晚上9點多，定位有誤差點沒找到，比較害怕，但後來服務人員來接我，非常友善消除了我的擔心，房間很寬敞，山頂可以看到全景很美好，就是去小鎮中心需要爬山，上來時比較吃力，但對於我還好，總體印象不錯，還會再來，謝謝留給我美好的旅遊印象。

We booked this knowing it was not in the Centro area of the city. We wanted peace and quiet. The hotel itself is dated but clean and the views are wonderful. The pool was somewhat dirty and there were many missing tiles on the bottom which made us pass on that to avoid cut feet. Our first night we were blown out of bed at 3:15 which so much noise, yelling, screaming, slamming doors and people outside out door on cell phones. We learned that 2 tour busses arrived and it was a large, loud group checking in. Breakfast was confusing with the large group in house but once served it was ok, however we did not understand what was and was not included so we were charged for our ”free breakfast”. We carried on, went out for the day and returned around 3 for a nap and once again the group came back from their tour of the day and the hotel was loud and napping was not an option. We packed up, forfeited out second paid night and left for a hotel in Centro which proved to be so much nicer and quieter even right on one of the plazas. Lesson learned.

We stayed at this hotel twice in 2023, to be closer to the BJX airport for early morning flights. While there are hotels closer to that airport (this hotel is a 25 minute drive to it) but this hotel is too nice to pass up for some of the not-so-nice airport area hotels. Guanajanto downtown is beautiful, not to be missed! The rest of the town isn't anything to write home about, we have done multipe tours and I'd stick to the area Villa Maria Cristina is in, and dowtown only. Ok, so we are Hyatt Explorist status. Both times our room was upgraded, which was very nice. The larger suites are lovely, we had one with a private patio with a table and loungers as well as Two full bathrooms, each with a bath tub and separate showers. Heaven! Robes and slippers also were privided with the room. We also got a turndown service with a lovely locally made treat. The hotel is old, and has the feel of an older hotel that has been well maintinaed, we could hear the pipes in the walls. Not a big deal. This room was facing a view of the mountains, but also along the main road. It was noisy All night with traffic. Light sleepers should request a room off the main road. The second time we had a slightly smaller room, no patio and one bathroom with a soaker tub. The hotel has 2 small pools, one indoors, 1 outside. There is also a spa and sauna (we had to sign up in advance to use it). There is also at least 1 hot tub set outdoors, although it was cold and we had to wait about 30 minutes for it to get heated. There's multiple outdoor patios. There is also a weekend brunch with a DJ but we did not participate. There is a bar and restaurant on site, and the food and service was good. There are also several restaurants within walking distance (5-10 minutes), an OXXO, and a few nice cafe/coffee shops nearby. There is a Nespresso machine in the room, however they charge you for each coffee pod used. Some of these rooms go for upwards of $500 USD a night. I personally find it tacky to be charged for using the coffee in the room. Out of hundreded of hotels we've stayed in over the years this has Never happend, and I found it extreamly odd. Managers - please get rid of that, it is not customary and ”cheapens” the overall feel of the hotel. The service was excellent both times we stayed here, the food was decent and setting beautiful. We'll be back!
