Casa de Sierra Nevada, A Belmond Hotel

“MEXICO When each of our kids turns 10 we take them on a trip with just mom and dad. For our daughter we went to San Miguel de Allende in Mexico and my dear cousin suggested the Belmond. I’m so glad she did! It was a dream! We were the only ones on the rooftop bar one night, we had the most delicious authentic breakfast at another historic building owned by the Belmond 10 minutes walk away, and their pool surrounded by bougainvilleas in one of the most beautiful historic homes in the city made for a magical birthday.”

“The hotel stitches together a handful of centuries-old colonial mansions just steps from the Parroquia. Expect hidden courtyards, bougainvillea, fireplaces in the rooms and a spa for cobblestone-weary feet. Margarita on the terrace at sunset is basically mandatory and the impeccable lovby bar has live music late night.”
