I just did a morning at the restaurant and toured the grounds. From the start, greeted and welcomed…read morewarmly from the valet. (Valet is your only option unless you park off the property and down the road.)
The grounds... Just amazing. Well, kept, groomed, tranquil, quiet and beautiful. Just look at the pictures as my writing skills are not as amazing as the photos.
Immediately greeted by a maître d' and seated promptly. The restaurant was simply decorated finely, the tables set beautifully, music playing at the right level and a quiet place in general.
The wait staff was attentive, unintrusive and always available. Our head waiter, Julio was just perfect.
The meal was tasty, coffee delicious, the juices fresh made in house. Everyone in my group raved about their meal and I sampled each of them and raved just the same. The coffee was rich and dark served with natural sugar, substitutes and milk.
Prices were good, especially for this type of restaurant. The bill for 5 of us, all with drinks and some with appetizers was just about $700 (pesos) with worked out to about $10 (American) per person. With tips, we were about $15 a person. No where in the states could you get that kind of service for 3 times that money.
The view here, since it is on top of a plateau looking over Morelia, was just breath taking. (Again, see the photos.) Out door seating with that view was available as well as the indoor seating.
There was a grand piano inside the restaurant, so I'm guessing at times they have live music. Also, they have a buffet on Sunday morning that I hope I can experience next visit. Also, as beautiful as the hotel was, I plan on not just eating here, but staying here for my next visit. I will update my review on the hotel when I do, but I'm positive that it will be more of the same 5 star rave.
I felt like a million dollars here. I felt pampered and left feeling refreshed, full, satisfied and amazed.
