San Miguel de Allende
Located in the heart of San Miguel de Allende, Casa de Sierra Nevada, A Belmond Hotel, is paying homage to tradition with an exclusive Día de los Muertos celebration in collaboration with renowned Mexican visual artist Betsabeé Romero. The hotel was recently named the 2nd best hotel in all of Mexico in Conde Nast Traveler’s Readers’ Choice Awards.
This exclusive Day of the Dead experience contributes to San Miguel de Allende’s allure as a quintessential destination for traditional Dia de Muertos celebrations. Guests will have the opportunity to engage in conversations and experiences led by Romero herself while perusing vibrant recycled plastic flowers, hand-printed latex skulls, and more. As a multi-disciplinary artist, Romero is known for her impactful work that combines various mediums and explores themes of cultural heritage, identity, and social change.
Guests booking a minimum three-night stay between October 31 and November 5 can enjoy welcome cocktails, daily breakfast, a La Catrina (skeleton) makeup session for two, and a Romero-designed personal altar kit. This kit allows guests to build their own altars dedicated to loved ones directly in their ample guest rooms. The celebration culminates with an exclusive cocktail event at Tunki Rooftop by Handshake on November 1 and a dinner party at Andanza Restaurant on November 2.
Featuring an educational conversation with Betsabeé Romero, this immersive experience offers a deep understanding of the cultural significance of Día de Muertos while offering traditional culinary dishes including Pozole, Tamales, Dulce de Calabaza (pumpkin candy), and Pan de Muerto.
