I loved the way I was treated by the hosts. My room was straightened every day sheet were changed everyday. Breakfast was delicious and so was dinner. I was attended by the owners and they were very nice and were on top of all my necessities. I recommend Hotel El Molino in Rio Verde. I recommend Rio Verde period.

This is a very nice place. The greeting from the owner/manager can be in English as she has great command of it. The price is right and the rooms are clean, comfortable and adequate if a bit spartan, though the water in the shower is HOT and with GREAT pressure. In this day of cell phones and tablets, the rooms need MORE than one electrical outlook. And most of all, it would be nice if the wi-fi advertised to be available really e=was. Like almost all Mexican hotels, the non-functioning of the wi-fi is blamed on Tel-Mex, which though true doesn't stop these hotels from advertising 'wi-fi available.' And, the morning coffee is quite good. All that being said, I would stay there again.

Nostalgic hotel in a converted molino which processed sugar cane. The rooms are classic and incredibly comfortable. The grounds are well manicured and relaxing. The amenities and restaurant are top-notch. We enjoyed spending time in the pool, and temezcal. We highly recommend this hidden gem!
