The overall experience was pleasant and the service was excellent. We got there on a Thursday…read morenight (non-holiday weekend) on a rental car from the airport, pulled up to the front, they helped with the bags, and checked us in. The hotel is in the outskirts of the historic center, which is a good idea because you will not feel congested and lost within the tunnels of Guanajuato. We ate breakfast at their restaurant / bar, which offered amazing service. The waiter was always ready to fill up our coffee and make any custom breakfasts. Food quality was very good and the restaurant was very clean. The rooms were a little cold and the beds a little stiff (hence the 4 out of 5 stars) but the quality of sheets and furniture was much better than the neighboring Holiday Inn Express that I stayed at a few months back. The pool was being repaired while we were there but it looked like it would be a lot of fun during the summer. I highly recommend this place.

I came to Rosewood to utilize their services at Sense Spa. I booked a 90 minute Allende Massage:…read morearomatherapy massage that used soft to medium pressure. You are greeted with a welcome drink and moist towelette for your hands. The robes were thick and soft but a little on the heavy side. You can wait in the coed relaxation room before your services. Sip on chlorophyll, water, or hot tea. The Allende massage started with a small tub of hot water to quickly scrub your feet. There's about 4 essential oil scents to choose from for your massage. I opted for the rosemary mint. Norma was professional and thorough. She wasn't overly rough to where I come out more sore than I went in. I left feeling completely relaxed. The women's side is fully equipped with shower essentials, q tips, hairdryers, etc. The steam room was available but the sauna was unfortunately closed during my visit. Gratuity is included but leaving additional tip is there if you received exceptional service.

Best SPA Ever! My husband and I took a mini vacation to San Miguel de Allende and stayed in the…read moreRosewood which is where this spa is located. From the minute you walk into the hotel the service is amazing everyone greets you they ask if any help is needed. The spa is located on 3rd floor of the hotel. We arrived on a Monday and went to the spa as the reservation was wrong for my husband. The lady in the front was so nice to us and we were able to change the reservation. She also let take a tour of the spa before we went in. Highly recommend to go in early than your appoint to use all the facility. I went about 45 min before and was not enough time to use the steam room, sauna and take a shower before my massage. Male and female facilities are separate so sauna and steam room is two one for male and another for female. If in town this is a must the prices are reasonable if compares to the states about $80 per massage but the quality is the best I've had!!! Also after massage the rooftop restaurant on the fourth floor is not to be missed. You can enjoy a nice sunset with the best view in town!!!

You can tell she is a dedicated, knowledgable practitioner who genuinely cares about her clients. The massages are wonderful and the temazcal is an incredible experience (although not for the faint hearted! It can get quite full-on. Either go in with commitment and a fully open mind, or research what a temazcal is about beforehand). NB: my experience was all in Spanish, not sure if she speaks English, but I don't think it'd matter either way.

Though my airbnb host claimed a preference for Escondido Place, advance research told me that La…read moreGruta would be cleaner and more to my liking. Both places, I was warned, will be packed on the weekends so I opted for a weekday visit. Advance research won't just help you decide which place is more "you" but it might also reveal to you things that you might not have discovered if you failed to investigate. For one, you should arrive knowing that you definitely want to get yourself in the pool tunnel that leads to the enclosed grotto, hopefully when the latter is dumping out buckets of water. Am I getting ahead of myself? La Gruta is a place for which I have no US equivalent. It's not a US-style "water park" nor is it a fancy place to sunbathe and swim. There's nothing fancy at all about La Gruta. Mostly, it's a series of warm pools, chaise lounges, lawns, food, and drink. I'd have been happy enough laying by the largest pool, in the sun, occasionally dipping into the warm waters but I was happier once I found the pool that leads to the tunnel and the grotto. La Gruta costs about $12US per person to enter. Bags are quickly checked at point of entry to ensure that no outside food or drink is brought in (do bring your own towels). A refundable cash deposit is required to obtain a locker key and the locker room and changing areas are clean and functional. Once inside and changed, claim your chaise lounge (or table and chairs) with your towel and let the day begin. You've hopefully packed a good book, a comfortable swimsuit, a hat, and sunscreen; all will be used. There's at least 5 different pools at La Gruta, of varying sizes and depths. Some have occasional water spouting from above and others are quiet. Each seems to have its own appeal. The way it's built you can't sit beside the pool that leads to the tunnel and the grotto but you should definitely find it. Then, keep returning until that water spout in the grotto is activated. Guests line up in the water to take their turn getting pelted. It's invigorating and fun. Other stuff: * I hired a driver to take me here and back. It's a short distance away from central SMA but you cannot get here on foot. * Some pools have tree leaves in them, not excessive, but probably not as pristine as one would hope for. This didn't affect my enjoyment of the pools. * Massage, food, and drink also available. I sampled none but heard that those massage appointments fill up fast.
