Villa Montana

See more Best Hotels. See best of Morelia in Mexico.


This noble hideaway is owned by a French Count who entered the world of tourism after falling in love with the property. We are confident that every guest will be equally as captivated with its delightfully rustic accommodations, replete with antiques, fine furnishings and luxurious amenities. Yet it is the Villa's exquisite gardened terraces and staggering views that set it way above the competition. Artists and photographers will be delighted by the multicolored blooms, towering fir trees and ivy-covered stone walls. Guest cottages are arranged on several levels so that each has privacy and many share the panoramic views of the terraces. The scene is especially magical from the swimming pool patio (during the daytime) and the restaurant terrace (at sunset). Be sure to take in the view before dining in the Villa's gourmet restaurant.

Villa Montana is an indulgent retreat for mild winter days and cozy fireside evenings. Guests should note that from November to March an excursion to the Monarch butterflies wintering grounds could be the highlight of a visit. The hotel is also popular in the summer, when Morelia's altitude and fresh breezes make a welcome change from the sultry beaches. The surrounding area is rich in natural beauty and colonial treasures, from the green waters of Lake Patzcuaro to the majestic churches and mansions of Morelia. A tour of the many excellent museums in the area offers an insight into the rich heritage of this Tarascan city and its heavy involvement in the struggle for independence. For those with dreams of a visit to Morelia and Michoacan, the unique charm of Villa Montana is the perfect reason to reward yourself.
