Casa Real de Minas

The Copper Canyon & Ferrocarril Chihuahua Pacífico


Just beyond the central plaza, this converted casona (mansion) has 10 brightly decorated rooms, two courtyards and several communal areas jam packed with antiques and old photos. You're immersed in silver mining history here, no doubt. Rooms are enormous with clean bathrooms and comfortable beds but need some attention, given the price.
