La Casa del Naranjo

Querétaro


The six rooms here are decorated in an eclectic but stylish manner and surround a lovely roof terrace with a Jacuzzi. Each room is named after a fruit, the tree of which has been incorporated into its design. Downstairs rooms are more cramped than upstairs, but there are several attractive outdoor lounge areas and the eponymous orange tree.
