“we luv it”

Reviewed 6 May 2013

We came back to Hotel Matilda just for one day to celebrate my wifes birthday. We think it´s maybe the best place to stay in San Miguel Allende. This time we got a suite and it was downstairs.... what we did not like so much. But in the end the room was sunny and stylish and the service was excellent,... More

“Chilling weekend”

Reviewed 1 December 2012

We really appreciated the time you took to shoot a video and post it on YouTube for others to enjoy. It’s difficult to capture the spirit of Matilda in just one photo – there’s so much to experience, from the art to the ambience. Of course, Matilda is never static; since the art is always changing, there’s always something new... More

“Calle Ocho brings flavor and fun to Hotel Matilda, SMA!”

Reviewed 2 May 2013

The Hotel Matilda gave a sparkling head start to a Calle Ocho fiesta on April 26th. From the minute we arrived pretty young ladies with Cuban hats were quick to hand us delicious Mojitos, chocked with fresh mint and not too sugary. The entry to the hotel was highlighted with neon palm trees and pink flamingos made the fountain so... More

Dear Sharita: We’re so glad you enjoyed our Calle Ocho fiesta!! We plan many events throughout the year – where gourmet cuisine is paired with upbeat music and exciting art and artists. It’s all part of the Matilda Lifestyle, which is building quite a buzz with the foodie crowd. Check out the SMART festival planned for May 31-June 2. And... More

“Privacy and luxury at same place.”

Reviewed 22 April 2013

I spend a long weekend in Matilda. And it was perfect, the staff was very friendly and the restaurant is very good, now I know why Chef Olvera is one of the best in Mexico. Very good location just a couple blocks from the main square. Everything was perfect and is exactly what I specked from a luxury boutique hotel.... More

There’s no better place than San Miguel to spend a long weekend – especially since the continuing array of special events, festivals, music and art events offer some amazing entertainment options. Coming up May 31-June 2 is the second annual SMART (San Miguel ART) festival which will bring together some of the best artists imaginable – and a dance party,... More

“A disappointment”

I have just returned from a weekend visit to San Miguel de Allende. I have been to San Miguel numerous times before, and was looking forward to my first stay at Matilda. Unfortunately, our visit began with an unpleasant dining experience Friday night. We were seated outdoors right next to a group of about 20 people celebrating with their own... More

We were extremely sorry to hear that you weren’t 100% pleased with your recent visit. As you noted, our enthusiastic staff works hard to assure that every guest has a wonderful stay. Fortunately, most do – in fact, just this month U.S. News & World Report named Hotel Matilda to their first-ever list of the “Best Hotels in Mexico.” We... More

Dear Lytzia: Many frequent visitors to San Miguel are quite surprised to discover Hotel Matilda – certainly, we aren’t a traditional property. In fact, we quite enjoy being a singular oasis of contemporary charm in a colonial city. Afterall, unexpected discoveries are one of travel’s greatest joys.

“Chic Contemporary Comfortable”

Reviewed 12 April 2013

Behind this wall is a gem of art, architecture and a relaxing ambiance. The entire staff went out of their way to assist in any way possible. Their English was better than my Spanish. The service here was some of the best I've encountered traveling. The rooms are comfortable, although the standard rooms are small (and I wished for a... More

We’re so glad you took the time to experience all that Hotel Matilda has to offer. Our intimate spa is a real gem with some of the best therapists and treatments in San Miguel – undoubtedly the reason that Conde Nast Traveler named it to their Hot List.

“Modern, hip luxury hotel near center of San Miguel”

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our romantic three night get-away at the Matilda in the center of San Miguel. We spent a lot of time eating at the excellent restaurant and sitting poolside in the lovely San Miguel sunshine. It was a perfect place to slowly enjoy healthy, tasty meals with good wine and to have long, relaxed conversations... More

“style over substance (restaurant)”

Reviewed 9 March 2013

The Matilda is lovely, but the food we had last night never rose above the level of mediocrity. Given the prices, we expected more. The agnolotti pasta was especially disappointing. I was told that the chef was new. "Even worse than the last guy," a local foodie told me.

Dear Guest: Given the many accolades that our restaurant and cuisine have received over the last several months, we found your review quite surprising. In fact, just last week the New York Times recommended Moxi especially for foodies, saying, “An international culinary star has landed in San Miguel.” We are careful to balance substance with elegant style at our both...

I had the opportunity to stay at Matilda during a weekend trip to Mexico City and San Miguel.

Thank you for recommending Spa Matilda. The signature massages are very popular, and so is our authentic Hammam.
