Huge green and wooded area in San Miguel de Allende's historic downtown. Large house built with local materials, panoramic views and an interesting library. We have our own organic orchard and a solar-warmed swimming pool
POSADA CORAZÓN
This gorgeous house, located in San Miguel de Allende's historical downtown, covers an “apple’s heart", name given to gardens and groves’ area that old mansions had in behind their facades, green and tree-filled zones in every block of the historical city. The temperate climate and plentiful water from fountains and springs gave life to these traditional garden courtyards, replete with fruit trees, flowers, and ornamental, aromatic and healing plants. These backyards formed a recreational space for the inhabitants, and also an ideal niche for a variety of birds.
There are few remaining apple hearts in San Miguel's downtown. Posada Corazón has made efforts to preserve it as a garden and orchard, providing daily with organic crops as well as herbs and flowers for non-profit local activities.
The house is a spacious construction typical of Mexican architecture of the 1960s, a balance of beauty and simplicity, designed by Leonardo de la Canal. Up to date the house keeps its original style and feeling of a family home. It also contains an outstanding collection of books, mostly on Mexican and international art, as well as a set of sculptures which add to the beauty of the gardens.
It has 5 different rooms for rent.
POSADA CORAZÓN
Esta bella casa, ubicada en el centro histórico de San Miguel de Allende, comprende un “corazón de manzana”. Nombre que se daba al área de jardines y huertos que tenían las casas principales en la parte trasera, conformando zonas verdes y arboladas en cada bloque de la ciudad. El clima templado y el agua abundante de fuentes y manantiales daban vida a estos huertos tradicionales, pródigos en árboles frutales, flores, plantas ornamentales, aromáticas y curativas. Los huertos traseros formaban un espacio recreativo para sus habitantes, además de ser un nicho ideal para una variedad de aves.
Son pocos ya los corazones de manzana que han sobrevivido en el centro histórico de San Miguel. Posada Corazón ha procurado preservarlo como jardín y como huerto, produciendo en forma permanente alimentos orgánicos, hierbas y flores para proyectos no lucrativos locales.
La casa que ocupa la Posada es una amplia construcción representativa de la arquitectura mexicana de los años 60 del siglo pasado, equilibrio de belleza y sencillez proyectada por el arquitecto Leonardo de la Canal. Hasta la fecha, la casa mantiene su estilo original y un ambiente familiar. Alberga una interesante colección de libros, sobre todo de arte mexicano y universal, y un conjunto de esculturas complementa la belleza de los jardines.
Cuenta con 5 diferentes habitaciones en renta.

This was my first time staying here. Not only was it beautiful but it was tranquil, serene. Those photos don't lie. Every single person working at Posada Corazón was friendly, helpful, kind, courteous and gracious. Breakfast was so good that it was hard to decide whether to have what you had the day before that was so incredibly delicious or try something new. On the weekends, a buffet makes morning decisions that much more difficult. The bed was super comfortable. The bathroom was roomy and well appointed, with a sitting area that could open to the outdoors, ample closet and hanger space, and light when wanted, curtains when not. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

My wife and I celebrated our 49th wedding anniversary at Posada Corazon. We were given a tip by a friend who had been a guest several years ago. We are so grateful for her recommendation! To step through the door into the courtyard is such a delightful experience - from the hectic business of the streets to the peace and calm of a tranquil garden. We spent lots of time sitting in the shade of the garden or playing Upwords at a table outside the kitchen/dining area overlooking neighboring businesses, homes and gardens. Our room had a comfortable, firm bed. We enjoyed large windows/doors that opened to the courtyard and had them wide open most of the time we were in the room. We always felt safe. Breakfast was cooked to order and we appreciated the cook making menu changes as we needed simple fare due to an unfortunate bout of tourista. Staff were always friendly and helpful. I appreciated a couple of unobstrusive cats and two comfortable-with-their-surroundings dogs who make Posada Corazon their home. Without question we would rebook a room at Posada Corazon if we were to return to San Miguel de Allende.

The natural setting is lush and lovely; the house is architecturally impressive. The staff is wonderful, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and includes quite an impressive menu. However, I do think the daily fee of $200.00 U.S. dollars is too high for the amenities of the room and bath. The room was small and did not have enough light for me. As much as I liked the resident animals (3 dogs and 2 cats), once at 4 am when a guest left, the dogs barked very loudly. Then the next night when a guest arrived at 10 pm the dogs once again barked too long. So a quiet night depends on no one arriving or leaving to disturb the dogs. Diana was most gracious and helpful. The ease of walking to the Jardin is a definite plus.
