Hacienda El Santuario San Miguel de Allende
Beautiful hotel in the heart of San Miguel. It was a perfect location that allowed us to walk to all of the festivities while also being far enough away from the plaza to be restful and quiet. Their courtyard and gardens are so lovely that you almost don't want to leave the hotel.
