The quaint town of SanMiguel de Allende offers a postcard perfect image of
colonial architecture dating back to the 16th century. It is a World Heritage
Site with an undulating central district of narrow cobbled streets with a low
skyline punctuated by the rising domes and belltowers of its many Baroque
churches. Its mountain location offers a temperate climate and in recent
years has seen its popularity as an artistic and culinary centre grow. Its
remote location also adds to the town’s a distinctly laid back atmosphere.
Rosewood San Miguel de Allende has the feel of a colonial residence,
although it is in fact a cleverly disguisedmodern building opened in early
2010 on the outskirts of this pretty colonial town. Using a palette of rich
ochres that match its historical setting, its 60 rooms are spacious with
private terraces and overlook the town. It is a modern structure that fits
in effortlessly with the colours of the town and offers of course that
unmistakeable Rosewood service and experience. Its biggest draw is the
stunning rooftop bar / terrace with amazing views over the town
including La Parroquia. Also there is a large spa and three pools. The hotel
is a short stroll along quiet cobbled streets into the heart of San Miguel.
