Here's a delightful guide to the most charming places to stay in Mexico: the small Mexican posada or inn. Typically, these small inns are somewhat removed from the busy downtown and tourist districts, often in quiet residential neighborhoods, on the outskirts of small towns and villages, and sometimes in rural settings. Many of these small inns occupy venerable Spanish Colonial structures: an old convent, a grandee's ranch house, or the former home of a bishop. The whitewashed walls of your room may be hung with colorful weavings, ornamental tin work, or antique religious carvings, and your deepset doorway may look out through an arched portico to a flower-filled patio or splashing fountain. These places really do exist, and inns-authority Toby Smith has recently returned from Mexico with a selective list of more than 40 of the very best. Her lively, narrative descriptions of each inn tell you everything you'll need to know including how to arrange reservations. Let Romantic Inns of Mexico be your passport to happy holidays south of the border.
