Inn Details
This 4 Star hotel features the only full service restaurant and bar in town. Gourmet breakfast is included. The hotel offers an on-site spa with massage therapists trained to U.S. standards.
We are proud to be included in National Geographic Traveler Magazine's September 2008 feature on Mexico's secret vacation spots.
The restoration of La Posada del Rio Sonora began in 2001 and was completed in 2006. The original building is more than 200 years old and is directly located on the central plaza.
The Hotel was built for the socially and environmentally conscious guest using local materials and built by local tradesmen. La Posada del Rio Sonora greatly contributes to the local economy and donates a percentage of its time and profits to community-based non profit organizations.
