Hotel Restaurante El Ciruelo, Mexican restaurant and hotel in Tepoztlán, Mexico.
Hotel Restaurante El Ciruelo is a restaurant and guest accommodation in Tepoztlán with private terraces, jacuzzis, and swimming pools overlooking the Tepozteco mountain range. The rooms and dining areas sit across multiple levels, with fountains and planted spaces interspersed throughout the property.
The establishment opened in 1993 and has grown into a well-known restaurant and lodging business in Morelos state. Over the following decades, it became a preferred destination for dining and staying in the region.
The name comes from the Ciruelos China tree that shades the semi-private terrace and gives the place its character. On weekends, guests enjoy traditional Mexican cuisine prepared with local ingredients while listening to live bolero music.
The restaurant operates on varying schedules depending on the day of the week, with longer hours available on weekends. The location sits in the mountains with multiple levels, so visitors should expect uneven pathways and stairs throughout the property.
The semi-private terrace can accommodate up to 50 guests for events while offering direct views of the surrounding mountains. This ample space makes the spot suitable for private gatherings that use the peaks as a natural backdrop.
