Suites feature modern design touches, including a private bar, built-in furniture, smart television, rainfall shower and sliding doors opening to views of Tequila Valley or Mango Grove and the gardens of Casa Salles.

Being a distillery hotel means guests can embark on a tour of El Tequileño to see the process of creating the brand’s range of tequilas. The tour includes a walk through the steps of producing tequila, hearing stories about the founder and sampling the distillery’s different tequilas.
