Located on the most elegant boulevard in Guanajuato, this delightful 19th-century neoclassical French townhouse offers splendid views of the imposing La Bufa Hill. The suites boast high ceilings, marble bathrooms and large windows to admit plenty of natural light. The terracotta-colored walls, floors inlaid with mosaics and beautiful paintings and murals by local artists Jesús Gallardo and Gorky González create a warm atmosphere and a sense of space. The restaurant, bar and wine cellar are superb and there is an exceptional spa with a Roman-style sunken pool. The Villa María Cristina is a veritable jewel in the heart of Mexico.
