Often, a hotel’s corridors are a mere after thought that we rarely think to enjoy. At the Hotel Rincon, the beauty will stop you cold. Beautiful and luscious plants decorate every inch of space providing a paradise-like setting. Architectural details are amazing and a thrill to sit back and enjoy.

As if the beauty of the Hotel weren’t enough, the hotel also offers a delightful restaurant with food as wonderful as its surroundings. Intimate table settings feel more like  visiting someone’s home rather then a public eatery. Their specialty is the favorite starter, tarasca soup. This aromatic dish has a tomato/chili broth base with chopped avocados, cheese and tortilla strips.
