Opened in February 2011, Rosewood San Miguel de Allende was crafted by local artisans with the look and feel of old San Miguel to capture the historical essence and ambience of Mexico's most beloved city. The hotel pays homage to San Miguel de Allende's storied past while staying true to Rosewood's philosophy of providing guests with a memorable experience of unparalleled luxury and understated elegance.

San Miguel is considered a remarkable example of 16th-century Spanish Colonial Baroque architecture and also played a vital role during the Mexican War of Independence. To honor its famous son and national hero - Ignacio Allende - the town renamed itself San Miguel de Allende in 1826. In recent decades the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside, quality of light and unique ambience have drawn artists to study, work and settle here.

Rosewood San Miguel has an extensive and spirited collection of contemporary Mexican art exhibited throughout public areas of the hotel, consisting of works by prominent artists active in various regions of Mexico and includes a few expatriate artists who have made San Miguel their second home.
