Casa Embrujo Morelia - Boutique

Our stay at Hotel Embrujo was a delightful one. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. We especially enjoyed the large soaking tub that came with our room. Parking was convenient and the staff made sure we had the after hour numbers to call for access if needed. There was a bit of road noise, but most of that subsided by 10:30pm. We were even able to enjoy the Saturday night fireworks from our room which was a treat. While we were there we enjoyed both a dinner and a breakfast. The house salad was very fresh and the Pizza Embrujo was delicious. Morning coffee was nice and strong and the wait staff was very courteous. The fruit plate was yummy as was the spinach frittata.

We booked a room at Casa Embrujo (the Sirrah Junior Suite) to stay during a wedding. Availability in the city was low overall, and it seem they overbooked their 3 room hotel. Trouble started before we arrived. They reached out directly via Whatsapp requesting my credit card details in order to “enforce the cancellation policy” even though we had selected the “pay at property” option at **********. We didn’t provide them, but that probably led us to be bumped from our room. When we first arrived, we were in a hurry to get to the wedding and didn’t make much of the fact that they told us that our room was off property and in what was clearly a bungalow in the owner’s house. They were helpful in opening up the parking lot when we arrived sometime after 11pm. However, then we started to notice that some things were off. Our bed was not king size, the bathtub in the bathroom looked dirty and we couldn’t find how to close the curtain on a skylight. Next morning we were inevitably woken up by the light shining in through the skylight. We finally started to make sense of what had happened to us once we went for breakfast. The restaurant was in the main building. We had some good breakfast in a good setting (a terrace at the top). On our way down, housekeeping was cleaning the room that we had booked. We got a chance to look inside and the difference was enormous. It was a proper hotel room, well illuminated and what we had paid for. When checking out we complained to the person at reception, but she didn’t have much to say. We were clearly ripped off. We really needed a room and would probably have paid around the same (but realistically considerably less once we got to compare rooms) to stay. The part that is not fair is that they deceived us, double booked our room and still charged us the same. Avoid booking a room here

From the pictures,I was expecting something small and quaint but to my surprise,the size and quality of the room blew me away! The staff reached out to me before my arrival and I was met at the door by such a lovely and warm crew of people! Everyone was friendly and ready to answer any questions I had,the room was absolutely stunning and gorgeous,and breakfast at the restaurant left me satisfied and ready to tackle the day. My only regret was not booking a longer stay! I know EXACTLY where I will be staying next time I visit Morelia! I felt like royalty here!
