“Very nice,”

Best view in town ,wonderful art work in the hotel,close to everything in town,great resturants

“Never wanted to check out”

This was a splendid hotel, the room tucked away from the noise but front door on the central square. Cable TV, plenty of hot water, comfortable beds and a computer in the lobby. For the price, this was luxury in Mexico.

“Nice Hotel”

You Wont Regret!

“Great Location”

The hotel de Portal is located directly on the main square. The location is ideal for walking around the beautiful city of San Miguel de Allende.Close to great restaurants and night life.The museum and chapel are next door!

“A delighted trip for me...educational as well.”

My room was not well lit for reading but another room above, had I selected it, was well lit. At Hotel Del Porta you are in the center of everything. Celebrations were going on and the bands and mariachi players were on all 4 sides of the Jardine (town square). Fiestas the entire week. Full dress and dancing all day. The University had a field trip and it entailed Mexican History... Very religious people, proud of their heritage who gave us a warm welcome to their country. There are Cobblestone streets and the architecture was spectacular. Be sure to take your camera. I loved it

“Location Location Location”

The hotel isn't completely finished. I found unfinished rooms when I took a wrong turn one morning. The room had a huge flat screen TV. The bed was King size but somewhat lumpy and hard. I also had issues with the plumbing. For example, the toilet in the room I was upgraded to didn't work at first and the water pressure in the shower wasn't very strong and it was a little tricky getting the temperature of the shower regulated. Most of the staff didn't speak any English and my Spanish is spotty at best which was challenging when I tried to explain that the toilet was out of order.The toilet was fixed. These were relatively minor inconveniences when you consider the fact that you are literally steps away from the enduring magnificence that is the jewel in the crown of San Miguel de Allende; La Parroquia and Plaza Allende which is where all the action takes place.

“Del Portal ... Location, location, location”

It is not an excellent hotel and definilety the "Boutique" category is a desire, but, it has the best location in San Miguel... that, and just that makes it worthy.

“Great location not the smell in room”

The location of the hotel is outstanding! The appearance of the lobby and room is fine. The linens and appointments of the room are nice. We were disappointed with the bath especially the sewer gas coming from the shower drain. I would have a much higher opinion if this was addressed. Not the worst but could be better.

“Will not go back”

Rooms were small, dim, not very clean and service was poor. On the other hand it is very well located. It doesn't nearly meet the "Boutique Hotel" standard. Needs remodeling urgently!!!

“never ever again!”

this hotel is not worthy of a 1 star rating, there are no windows in the rooms, for the most part, those that do have no view, the roof terrace is full of gas ovens and construction materials, the showers are terrible, if you do manage to make them work, they flood the bedroom, loose wiring, huge chunks of plaster missing from the walls, noisy 24 hour security, the hotel is under construction, the whole 2nd floor, and parts of the 1st, there is no bar ( as stated ) no eating area ( as stated ) and unless you are prepared to crawl thru a 3 ft opening onto a construction site, no roof terrace ( as stated ) on arrival, be prepared to walk 150 ft from the kerbside to the front door, and then heave your luggage up many very steep stairs to the reception! this hotel should not be open at all at the moment, until it is dragged into the 21st century.
