General Information

Voted "Best Overall" B&B 2007-08 in Mexico, Caribbean and South America, Quinta Zoe is a gem.

WALK TO EVERYTHING from Quinta Zoe's perfect location just one block from the main plaza in Historico Centro. It's all here - restaurants, shops, cafes, cantinas, bakeries, ATMs, pharmacies, convenience stores and cultural events.

Our fully renovated, beautifully decorated 18th century Spanish Colonial offers an authentic Mexican experience with 2' thick walls and 15' high ceilings. All rooms have private entrances off one of our courtyards and electronic safes for your valuables. Comfort is our hallmark with fine linens, top-line mattresses and large fluffy towels. New private baths, cable TV, large openable windows, ceiling fans and heaters provide comfort during slight weather changes in our otherwise mild, year-round climate. (Internet in some rooms). Relax in one of our large open courtyards or our rooftop terrace with city view.

Our Breakfast Option includes a volumptuous breakfast served from 8:30-10 in our beautiful three-arches dining room overlooking the back courtyard and fountain. Tailored to our current guests, breakfast includes our home-made Maple-nut Granola as well as egg dishes or waffles or pancakes. An Early Riser Breakfast Tray is available.

All of our guests enjoy morning Mexican coffee or tea and unlimited, complementary chilled bottled water 24 hours a day. A refrigerator and ice is available free of charge.

In addition, we offer free out-going long distance to the US and Canada, fax service and a lending library.

Queretaro is a cultural paradise as well as an historical study with easy-to-walk mild terrain, tree-lined plazas, stone streets lined with old colonial buildings and numerous churches as well as several museums, art galleries, weekly concerts, dancing in the park and numerous festivals and activities throughout the year.
