La Casa Rodavento

Seven-suite boutique hotel in a colonial town two hours from Mexico City that most international travelers haven't caught onto yet, though the locals have long since claimed it. Three rooms occupy the historic building, four a modern addition, and some come with outdoor showers or terraces looking over the rooftops. The restaurant downstairs serves contemporary takes on regional cooking, which is to say the whole place doubles down on the same idea: old town, modern comforts.
