Christmas and New Year’s Eve in the Heart of Patzcuaro

 Patzcuaro transforms as December arrives. It is more than just the crisp mountain air that invites you to enjoy a cup of artisanal Mexican hot chocolate; it is the palpable sense of a town pausing to honor its cultural identity.

 

Christmas in Patzcuaro at Mansion Iturbe

At Hotel Mansion Iturbe, we cherish this season. Our historic colonial manor stands as a privileged witness to the vibrant traditions unfolding in the Plaza Vasco de Quiroga, one of the most beautiful squares in Mexico.

 

Pátzcuaro: A must-visit destination for Christmas in Mexico

From our balconies, you have a front-row seat to the Monumental Nativity Scene. This masterpiece of Mexican folk art is truly unique, featuring life-sized figures masterfully crafted by Michoacan artisans using wood, chuspata reeds, and local natural fibers.

 

Christmas in Mexico, enjoy Patzcuaro

What sets this experience apart is the architectural harmony of our location. This plaza is a rarity in the Americas—vast, open, and framed by 18th-century stately manors rather than traditional religious temples. Observing this display from the quiet elegance of our boutique hotel allows you to appreciate the genius of local craftsmanship with a level of peace and perspective that only a historic home can provide.

This same commitment to authenticity defines our culinary philosophy. At Restaurante Doña Paca, we are dedicated to the traditional Michoacán cuisine and "slow food" practices, serving family recipes that have been passed down through generations.

We honor our heritage by using fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced daily from local producers. It is an honest, soulful way of cooking, served with the genuine care of a host welcoming a guest into their own private dining room.

 The house itself is a landmark of history, held by our family since 1790. We have preserved this casona with meticulous devotion, keeping alive the noble character of the adobe and wood that define its soul.
