For those with an adventurous heart...a gypsy spirit...and a soul longing to be South of the Border...Mi casa es tu casa. Welcome to Casa Rosa.

Guests have said that while staying at Casa Rosa they got the feeling they were in a private hide-out of Frida Kahlo. It is a romantic, intimate place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The two cozy Casa Suites and larger López Suite are painted in rich, relaxing tones and pay homage to the indigenous peoples of Michoacan. Browse the charming niches and collections of artisan handcrafts that adorn your suite. Take an evening stroll two blocks to the plazas right downtown for a famous fruit "gazpacho" or "vasolote" and then retire to Casa Rosa to enjoy a glass of wine and candlelight in your private indoor courtyard under the stars.

The colors you will encounter during your stay in Morelia will overwhelm your senses. Walk to Mercado Independencia for a festival of sights, sounds and smells. Go downtown midday to take in the energy of the city. Stay up late and hear the sad, longing melody of the "velador" (night watchman) as he patrols our neighborhood. Everything there is to see in Morelia is within walking distance of Casa Rosa.

There is a rustic charm about Casa Rosa, yet the suites are appointed with luxurious linens, top of the line cookware and all that you will need to feel at home while enjoying a vacation in the heart of México.

Casa Rosa is located in Morelia, Michoacan, México. The capital of the state and a city of one million people, Morelia is one of the few colonial gems of México. It was founded in 1541 and rests in a valley 6,399 feet above sea level, with scenic mountains in view. Morelia is known as the "Ciudad de la cantera rosa," or, the pink city, due to the construction of the cathedral and downtown buildings using pink colored limestone. This gives Morelia a feel of European distinction and old-worldness. The feeling when walking the avenues is one both ancient and eternal. There is a unique mood to this city, more like Spain than any other place in México.

Lonely Planet "Our Pick"!
"This underground posada doesn't publish its address to discourage window shoppers, but you can make an appointment to see the rooms and apartments, which are brushed in pastels and decorated with a lovely array of folk art and framed festival posters. The apartments, especially the Love Shack, are an absolute steal and ideal for long term rentals." —2008 Lonely Planet Review
