La Casa de la Marquesa

Beautiful historic building in the old center of town. Churches, restaurants and bars all within walking distance. Quiet surroundings at night and air conditioned rooms.

This is a review for the small room on the third floor- I think it’s called Santa Maria?
Absolutely beautiful and iconic hotel..really special to stay in such a historical place surrounded by the incredible Baroque architecture..The bed comfortable, bathtub was nice to have, breakfast was excellent. The staff was amazing as they compensated me for an uncomfortable room.

Beautiful historical hotel. Large, well-appointed rooms. Comfortable beds. Lovely lobby.

Everything

Horrible. Shower drain was slow and I pulled out a wad of black hair (I'm blonde!). Told the front desk clerk and even showed him the photos I took (see photos!) He did nothing. The next day there was NO water coming out of the shower. We had to walk across the hotel to a different room to shower. I barely had any water. The water stopped altogether when he was mid-shower. I never complain, but that was the last straw. Spoke to a manager before I had to rush off to dinner. I received an email at 10 p.m. after I was in bed saying that I could change rooms if I wanted. I spoke to a manager the next day. She said that she had contacted the director of the hotel but hadn't heard back. I prepaid 3 nights at the hotel, and they never did anything. If you're curious about the historic proberty, go, look around, maybe enjoy a meh breakfast with beautiful piano music. But do not stay here. Go to Doña Urraca for US$10 more a night.

Muy bien

La posizione e il personale tutto gentilissimo e disponibile.

We stayed 3 nights (was supposed to be 4) at Casa de la Marquesa and it was a nightmare! They had first put us in a third floor attic room, with a dark spiral staircase that was not compatible with my 74 year old knees, so they were nice enough to change our room to a 2nd floor room which was lovely to look at, but once we stayed the night we realized all the things that did not work; No WiFi, No TV, No A/C, No power in the bathroom for hair dryer, etc. They did try to take care of these things, but they kept going out constantly over the 3 days we stayed.
What was going to be our last night, we had to check out early due to flight disruptions and cancellations in Dallas. They agreed to compensate us for the last night, and gave me a note saying we would receive a credit for the last night that we were not there. Now it's been 2 months, and there has been no credit, and communication has stopped competely on their end. I kept hoping they would keep their word and refund our money, but that didn't happen. I don't like writing negative reviews, but want to save other travelers a bad experience.
Please do yourself a favor and DO NOT stay here. There are much nicer hotels for less money.

In our international travels, we always strive to seek out historic hotels that have preserved their original character, with rooms that reflect their identity rather than the prevailing bland aesthetics. The Casa de la Marquesa certainly delivered on that count. Its enticing patio lobby and staircase, with its kaleidoscope of period tiles, provide a taste of what's to come in its larger suites. Ours was the Alhambra, easily the nicest and most comfortable room on the premises, a riot of faux-Moroccan fantasy. We had no complaints with either the room or the exceptional housekeeping staff, nor with the location, dead center in Queretaro's historic district and an always interesting walk to the best restaurants and cultural sites.

Unfortunately, we had a problem with nearly everything else. One can forgive the indifferent quality of the restaurant --plenty of better options lie literally around the corner. But the indifference of the front desk staff to their guests' comfort and satisfaction significantly downgraded the overall experience. We had a pleasant encounter at check-in, but after that the quality of service ranged from merely perfunctory to egregiously incompetent -- especially in the mornings, when the adults seemed to have taken a half-day off.

To cite one example: during our stay a plumbing issue appeared to have erupted in the patio dining area. Crews worked after hours sledgehammering large holes in the tile floor for several consecutive nights leading up to Valentine's Day. At no time did management provide the courtesy of a written note to guests explaining the reasons for the inconvenience, nor did they offer any form of recompense, financial or otherwise. A hotel, after all, relies on its guests for its livelihood -- but you'd never know it from this staff.

We don't regret our stay at the Casa de la Marquesa, but let's just say the anticipation exceeded the actual experience. One other thing: amazing as the suites are, they occupy the floor above the restaurant patio, where the piano music begins promptly every morning at 8 am. So make sure to turn on the white noise.

Hotel was beautiful but extremely disfunctional. Good location

Es una casa preciosa y súper ubicada

Obviamente el edificio es bellísima y muy tranquilo a pesar de estar en pleno Centro

Das schönste Hotel auf unserer Mexikoreise.

Amazing, historic building and area. The room was amazing, like something out of an old movie.

Location is convenient to many nice restaurants and plazas.
