The Heritage Enclave
Wandering down the cobblestone Calle Hospicio just steps from the iconic pink limestone towers of the Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel, one pushes open weathered carved timber doors to enter an ethereal colonial sanctuary. Casa de Sierra Nevada, A Belmond Hotel is not a single hotel building, but an intimate heritage enclave of 37 rooms and suites spread across five historic colonial mansions dating from the 16th to 18th centuries—including Casa Principal, Casa del Parque, and Casa Limón.
Each individually designed residence is a celebration of Mexican artisanal craft, featuring original stone archways, hand-painted Talavera tiles, polished wooden beams, working fireplaces, and antique furnishings curated alongside vibrant contemporary local art. Lush interior courtyards bloom with bougainvillea, orange trees, and sculptural agaves, surrounding a heated swimming pool tucked into historic stone arcades.
Culinary excellence is central to the Belmond experience: Andanza Restaurant serves refined contemporary Mexican cuisine in an ambient candlelit courtyard; Restaurante del Parque honors traditional Oaxacan and Poblano gastronomy; and Tunki Rooftop by Handshake—created in collaboration with the masterminds behind Mexico City's Handshake Speakeasy—delivers inventive Andean cocktails paired with breathtaking sunset panoramas of the historic center. Guests also hone their own culinary prowess at the renowned Sazón Cooking School or paint alongside the resident artist.
