Enjoy Querétaro

  We booked this hotel because of the good reviews on Trip Advisor. It has some good points, such as location. It is so close to everything we wanted... read more to do and see in historic Queretaro. The first few nights the street across from the hotel was a place where the homeless were sleeping. They were quiet, and did not bother anyone but we did walk by them.
Our room was good, nothing spectacular, nothing negative. The breakfast was good for us and consisted of Fruit, toast, yogurt, and coffee. The people working at the front desk spoke very little English and seemed indifferent to our questions in our bad Spanish. The best employee was Ivan who hooked us up with Bike Tours Queretaro. We had sent emails to the hotel asking for a tour company or driver and got no response. We asked the first girl at the desk about tours and got no positive response either, but luckily Ivan called Bike Tours Queretaro and we were set.

  El Serafin is a small hotel with a great location, terrific atmosphere, and friendly, helpful staff. Our room, Tierra, was lovely, large with high ceilings and antique furnishings. ... read more Every night candles were lit in the courtyard and on the stairwell and there are great decorative touches throughout, providing a wonderful atmosphere. The shower head was inadequate and the breakfast could have been better (a second cup of coffee would have been nice). Querétaro itself is worth a visit, full of colonial buildings, great museums (don't miss the calendar museum!), and some excellent restaurants.

  This is a lovely boutique hotel in the city center and within easy access to many wonderful sights and restaurants. I was traveling solo and felt quite safe. The staff... read more is gracious, the room was tastefully appointed and reflected the charm of central Mexico. They provided a classic Mexican desayuno - coffee, fresh juice, fruit and yogurt. Perfect way to start your day. The wifi was great!

This place is a jem and a wonderful place to stay.

  Our recent one week stay at El Serafin was absolutely wonderful. The location and charm of the hotel can't be beat. We stayed in the Aire room. ... read more The room was a great size. The bed was comfortable - though a bit hard. But that is sort of the Mexican standard. Our room was kept spotless with daily maid service. The simple European breakfast was very good and we looked forward to it each morning. It's delivered to your room at your specified time from 0730-1000. The only improvement I can think of would be to add a boiled egg to the tray for a bit more protein. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Some know more English than others. But, they were very patient with my marginal Spanish. We didn't take advantage of the honor bar service. But, we loved that they had it available.

  Location is fantastic in the center of the historic district. El Serafin offers 3 different types of rooms. We booked last minute and got a... read more rather small room, Acasa. I would recommend the next size up which we happened to look in to, which was very good sized with a sitting room. The internet was absolutely horrid. We kept getting disconnected - repeatedly. I don’t think I was ever on for more than 5 minutes consecutively. Breakfast is coffee (no refills), juice, toast, yogurt and fruit. We read some reviews which indicated an issue with excessive noise. We had no such problem.

  We enjoyed 3 nights’ stay and the gracious hospitality of Maria, Ceci and staff. The room was comfortable with all necessary amenities. Breakfast of fruit, yogurt, toast, juice and coffee... read more was delivered to our room each morning at the time we requested. You can’t ask for a better location in the Centro. We look forward to our next visit.

  This place is comfy, clean, lovely architecture and has great staff. You can’t ask for much more than that. There’s a nice roof-top terrace and the reception sells beer etc,... read more to keep you refreshed whilst enjoying a relaxing evening up there. Default breakfast is continental (toast) in your room, but you can ask for a Mexican desayuno the day before, and also choose to eat on the terrace (recommended!)

  Excellently located hotel with unique character. Rooms are large some have air Conditioning and some don’t. Great service and very helpful staff. Roof terrace allows for socialising but lots of... read more local bars and restaurants right on the door step. Would highly recommend and is excellent value for money.

  Comfortable room - good bed, a couple of chairs, individually controlled a/c and heat with a remote. Perfect location in the centro histórico. Friendly staff and a good boutique hotel... read more vibe. They bring a continental breakfast to your room at a prearranged time (more or less). If like me you want more than one cup of coffee in the morning, I liked the nearby Café Mané. Also if you have any mobility issues, note that the second floor rooms are accessable only via a long staircase. Would absolutely stay here again. More

  Spend one night here with family and it was one of the most pleasant times ever. The hotel is so cute and clean and the lady that received us I... read more think her name was Mari, she was so sweet and helpful. I wish I could've spent more time there, the hotel was just so cute and very peaceful! I would definitely love to go back to Queretaro there someday to stay at El Serafin!
