La Casa Rodavento

"Designed by Mariana Valero, a Mexican artist living in Guadalajara, the exclusive hotel features seven luxury suites, some with private terraces and direct access to the rooftop Jacuzzi, which has a full view of the lake and the town below. Each room is distinct, but spacious Suite 2 has a unique modern feel complete with a head-turning black steel staircase that leads to a private roof deck with expansive views of the town’s towering cathedral. The hotel’s restaurant, Nuestro, is headed by Chef Diego Isunza Kahlo—nephew of the painter everyone knows and loves. Kahlo’s menu focuses on preserving locally sourced Mexican ingredients and recipes, like his classic pozole, made with suckling pig and cacahuacintle corn. His relationship with local suppliers and small producers is a key part of the dining experience there, and he is happy to take guests into the town’s “100 market” (where all goods are from less than 100 miles away, natch) for a farm-to-table cooking class back at the restaurant."
