Tierra y Cielo started operation in January 2007, when the long-cherished dream of professional Chef Marta Zepeda finally came true. With the commitment of offering visitors a unique experience during every visit through the combination of the friendliness of local inhabitants and professional service, Tierra y Cielo is now by far one of the best hotels in San Cristobal de las Casas.
Tierra y Cielo is in downtown San Cristobal de las Casas, really close to the city's cathedral, the main plaza, and the government offices. This now completely renewed former manor is just an hour away from Angel Albino Corzo International Airport.
When staying at Tierra y Cielo, travelers are not just ''sleeping'' in a common room in a regular hotel, they're living a unique fascinating experience instead.
Tierra y Cielo features an amazing palette of colors, scents, flavors, and textures through the expert combination of modern aspects from Mexico and some traditional elements from San Cristobal de las Casas.
The whole building presents an impressive array of Mexican elements, while the restaurant is an experience all unto itself! Tierra y Cielo also features wireless Internet in all the guestrooms and even a beautiful roofed patio with sofas, comfortable couches, and a small library.
The hotel features 12 elegant and comfortable guestrooms that successfully please even the most demanding traveler. All the rooms include paintings that reflect the natural beauty of the region.
In a casual modern ambiance, the restaurant at Tierra y Cielo offers healthy yet sumptuous gourmet dining. Professional Chef Marta Zepeda has created a balanced menu with options for every taste.
Those who are on a diet may choose a delicious spinach salad with bacon and a sweet tamarind vinagrette dressing. On the other hand, the guests with more ''carnivore'' inclinations may want to try a juicy steak in a spicy tomato sauce with parmesan cheese.
