Central Hotel Boutique
Historic Mexican colonial manor meets intimate literary boutique — stone walls, Bose speakers, Nespresso machines, and local art. Serious about food and cocktails. Quiet and refined, not a party spot.
Request a cathedral-view room when booking King Deluxe or Double Deluxe — not guaranteed but worth asking
Why It Matters
Holder of a Michelin Key distinction, it's the most stylish and luxurious hotel in Chihuahua by a considerable margin. The building itself is the oldest finca in the city, owned originally by General Ángel Trías, a former governor and close ally of Benito Juárez. Every room is named after a famous poet. El Poeta restaurant takes Northern Mexican cuisine seriously, with mesquite-grilled meats, local cheeses, sotol cocktails, and produce from the hotel's own gardens.
Central Hotel Boutique lives inside Casa Trías, the oldest complete estate in Chihuahua, dating from 1843–1845. Eleven rooms, each named after a poet, sit behind a quarry-stone facade originally designed to withstand Apache raids — and today it's the clear standout in a city without many strong lodging options. The location is as good as it gets: a short walk from the 18th-century cathedral and Plaza de Armas, with a rooftop terrace that puts the cathedral right in your sightline.
Where You'll Stay
3 room types available
Double Deluxe Room
From USD192 / nightThe largest room category at 300 sq ft, with two queen mattresses — the practical choice for families or friends. Cathedral views available on request. Full amenity package matches other Deluxe rooms: Nespresso, Bose speaker, LoredAna toiletries, and room service.
2 Queen BedsKing Deluxe Room
From USD160 / nightRuns 230 to 290 sq ft — noticeably more spacious than the Queen rooms. Cathedral-view versions are available on request and worth pursuing. Same quality kit as the Queen rooms: Bose speaker, Nespresso, LoredAna bath amenities, and full room service. The bathrooms are modern despite the historic shell of the building.
KingQueen Deluxe Room
From USD127 / nightThe entry-level room at Central, and still a considered space. Sizes run 190 to 230 sq ft, so these are compact — but the finishes do the heavy lifting. Authentic Mexican design elements, micro-cotton towels, Bose Bluetooth speaker, Nespresso unit, and botanic bathroom amenities by LoredAna. Room service available.
