Compare 5 airports near Guanajuato City
For most travelers, Guanajuato International Airport (BJX) is the only practical choice, located conveniently in the municipality of Silao and serving as the primary gateway for Guanajuato City and the Bajío region. It offers the most efficient and cost-effective transport options. The other airports are located in neighboring cities and should only be considered if flight availability or pricing significantly favors them. Queretaro International Airport (QRO) serves the city of Querétaro and requires a much longer drive or bus journey. General Francisco Mujica International Airport (MLM) is situated in the neighboring city of Morelia and involves an extensive regional travel time. Similarly, Aguascalientes International Airport (AGU) and San Luis Potosí International Airport (SLP) are long-distance transit points that require substantial travel through regional highways to reach Guanajuato. Travelers prioritizing comfort should opt for private transfers, while budget-conscious visitors will find local bus services efficient from the primary BJX gateway. Always check your connection requirements before booking long-distance regional transit.

It was a very cute hotel.
The path from entering the hotel to our room was stylish and lovely.
The room was spacious. There were no windows facing the outside, but there was one facing the courtyard? The Wi-Fi worked well. I think the amenities were all you needed.
The location is convenient for getting around Guanajuato. It's a bit of a challenge, but you can also walk to Pipila Hill.FromUS$69

The location is great, one step away from the attraction cathedral. The room is very large and seems like a suite. Clean and beautiful. There is a microwave. The big bed can sleep 3 people. The bath water is big and hot. The disadvantage is that the layout of the old house is not reasonable, the space is wasted, the bathroom is small, and there is no lamp on the table, which is not convenient for reading. Breakfast is very simple.FromUS$91

This hotel is a classic gem, only about ten minutes from Guanajuato town by taxi, costing around 10 RMB. It's very convenient. The room was spacious, and the breakfast was delicious, especially the bread 🥯. During my stay, I even happened to catch a vintage car club event. Everything was wonderful. I highly recommend a restaurant in the center of Guanajuato, where I enjoyed lunch and dinner. The prices were good, the food was excellent, and the environment was elegant. It's called Casavaladez, and it's right next to the Peace Garden.FromUS$90

Centro Historico Guanajuato City|0.45km from city center
Our family of three, all adults, booked this junior suite, which was on the first floor due to the room type. The view from the second floor was better but it did not meet our requirements. The hotel is located in the very center of Guanajuato, and a parade passed by the door on the day we arrived. The hotel has good soundproofing facilities, so you don't have to worry about affecting your sleep even though it is located in a busy city. The ceilings are very high, and there is an open-air bar on the top floor. We were given coupons and we drank champagne there in the evening. From the open-air bar you can see the Pipila statue, which is the highest mountain. The atrium of the hotel is large and well designed, where you can sit and relax. Breakfast was served to order and was delicious.FromUS$187

The location of the hotel is very convenient on the side of the Union Garden, next to the Juarez Theatre, most of which can be reached within 5 or 6 minutes on foot. The hotel service was very warm, and the hotel also presented a cake as it coincided with the anniversary. The room size is not too big, and the window is Union Square. In the night, Guanajuato is still relatively cool. The hot air of the hotel air conditioner is not very strong, and it can barely ensure that the room temperature does not drop. As it was about to leave at around 9:00, the hotel started at 9am, so the hotel prepared a breakfast basket, but unfortunately it was too simple, including only an apple, a glass of juice and a biscuit.FromUS$221

Centro Historico Guanajuato City|0.66km from city center
The hotel is very close to the city center and there are many restaurants nearby. It's very lively at night, the sound insulation of the room is mediocre, you can clearly hear the noisy sounds from outside in the room, my boyfriend thinks it's a bit noisy, but I still like to listen to this lively and happy atmosphere occasionally. The hotel has a lift, but our room was only accessible by stairs, which is not very convenient if you have a heavy suitcase. There are some chairs at the door of our room, and several employees sit and chat on them. We can hear their voices clearly in the room, and I'm not sure if they can also hear our conversations in the room. And they chatted there again early the next morning, and I was woken up by their chatter. I hope the hotel can tell them not to chat at the door of the room where guests are staying.FromUS$107
