What to expect: From its elevated location, the Villa Montaña has a commanding view of the colonial town of Morelia. The hotel's lobby has a large fireplace, original artwork, and traditional wooden furniture. The Villa Montaña is popular with business travelers who want to avoid the downtown crowds and with leisure travelers seeking a retreat-like home base for their explorations of the area.

Amenity highlights: The grounds of the Villa Montaña are like the gardens of an old hacienda, with nooks and crannies to explore. Pathways lead through the park-like grounds to guestroom cottages set amid flowering plants, stately trees, and stone statues. The hotel features a swimming pool, fitness center with modern cardio equipment, and business center. The gourmet restaurant and terrace bar have a great view of the town below.

Insider tip: Many of the hotel staff live nearby and are very familiar with the hotel's hilltop view. Servers at the terrace restaurant can point out sites of interest while sharing local history. With a little help, visitors can easily spot the public zoo, main cathedral, government palace, and many more of the 1400 registered historic sites within the city.
