San Miguel de Allende provides one of the most dynamic backdrops for small meetings and group trips. Heralded as the Best City in the World by Travel + Leisure two years running, the historic and colonial Mexican city stands out for its striking 18th century architecture and for its intense cultural and artistic way of life. A property that embodies the spirit of San Miguel de Allende, while also providing all the resources for a small meetings trip, is Hotel Hacienda El Santuario.

Located in downtown San Miguel de Allende in a 16th-century colonial convent, Hotel Hacienda El Santuario is the perfect place to host a small meeting or incentive trip. Hacienda El Santuario is not only an authentic, boutique hotel that houses one of the largest Mexican folk art collections, but it also houses a highly professional staff ready to make any meeting or incentive trip a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Comprised of 33 suites and rooms, the hotel has a Mexican-style lobby (300 square feet) that is often used for small groups of up to 30 people, and includes WiFi, projectors, surround sound system, a projection screen, and more. It is the ideal place for a board of directors or CEOs reunion.

The Hacienda also provides a central patio (1,055 square feet), tucked under the shade of brilliantly colored bugambilia trees. Here is the perfect spot to host a banquet for up to 70 guests. The Hacienda specializes in natural food, some of it grown on its own roof garden, and some from their own certified local products.

There are also other patios and terraces that are perfect for cocktails, canapes, or other small groups sessions.

Hotel Hacienda El Santuario has numerous certifications to ensure that your meeting or incentive trip will go off without a hitch. It is the only hotel in San Miguel that has the Biosphere Certification, ensuring all of their processes are carefully designed to be eco-friendly. It also has the Distintivo M certification to do their modern working system, and the Distintivo H to certify the hygiene of its kitchen and food. Just last year in 2018 the hotel won the “Guanajuato a la Competitividad” award, naming it one of the most competitive companies in the state of Guanajuato. Another one of its certifications is in the LGBT space, signifying that the hotel is ready for all markets.

Once checked into El Santuario, do not forget to take the time to enjoy the Tesoros del Santuario, one of the largest collections of folk art in Mexico. Guests and visitors can also see an enigmatic Catrina figurine on display, as well. The Catrina was created by the hand of Mexican engraver Jose Guadalupe Posada. Today it is a subject of pure Mexican craftsmanship and culture. This original piece is from a mud workshop in Michoacan. The Monarch butterfly is the symbol of the region and this example of Catrina dressed in the element of nature is the most appreciated in the community.
