The location is what makes this hotel fantastic, you cannot beat being right in the center of the action. However, the hotel lacked atmosphere, where others in the city had a bar or rooftop, this location shut down after 9pm. There was no coffee or tea service in the room, we struggled to get constant hot water and the room was cramped (could not open closet door because of bedside table). The staff were very helpful (Maria) and the rooms were very clean.

Hotel is located in a great location. Restaurant on site has great food and surrounding area is great and walkable. The bed was not comfortable and the hotel did not have extra fans. Tbe ceiling fan is nit enough to keep cool.

Perfect location, close to everything. Felt super safe at night. It is a little loud at nights in the area, but my husband and I are use to sleeping with a fan on as white noise so that wasn’t a problem at all for us. Bed was very comfortable. We felt at home, very cozy!

Hotel Carmina is like a home away from home. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are large and the staff very friendly and accommodating. There is a restaurant on the ground floor and it is great. The heart of the town is only a step outside of the front door of the hotel. The Parroquia and the Jardin are a few feet away.

This property is right next to the cathedral. Our balcony opened up directly facing the cathedral and it was simply magical. Our room (room 2) had high vaulted ceilings and garden doors that open up to a central second floor overlooking a charming restaurant! The staff is warm and friendly and everything was spotless! Definitely exceeded our expectations! One thing: if you don’t like church bells ringing around the clock or hearing beautiful singing from Mass then don’t book this hotel. For us it added to the charm and character that this hotel oozes with!

Not all rooms have air conditioning, only a ceiling fan.We were there in early May, before the real heat begins. The rooms can get really hot even at this time of the year. When we asked at the reception desk, the young man at the counter blatantly lied and said that NON of the rooms had A/C! We were ready check out and go somewhere else but the lady at the reception desk in charge of the morning shift (sorry, we didn't get her name), she was super nice, she had one of the staff members show us a different room that a portable A/C (because of the age and style/cultural history of the buildings, they can't have any external air conditioning units). We were able to switch rooms and what a difference that made. The location of the hotel is magnificent, you walk outside the the door and you are only sreps away from one of the main churches and plaza, where at night you can enjoy the Mariachi bands playing and singing, or enjoying an ice cream from one of the many vendors around the plaza, plus plenty of cafes, restaurants and bars. We most definitely be back to San Miguel De Allende. P.S. this is grown up town, not many activities for kids (but hey, maybe that's just my thinking).

It is a tale of two hotels. First we stayed in a wonderful and charming room with AC in the front hotel and loved it (10/10). Then we stayed in a charmless ACless room in the built out back hotel which had inconsistent hot water and because we had to have the windows open we heard all the noise and smelt cigarette smoke from the courtyard (5/10). The restaurant made great breakfasts and the staff and nice (10/10).
