Morelia, a city of about one million, rests on a gentle sloping hill overlooking the Valley of Guayangareo and is one of Mexico's colonial gems. Its historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Sight. At an elevation of 6,302 feet above sea level, Morelia's climate provides spring-like days throughout the year. The city and surrounding state offer a refreshing addition to any colonial city tour itinerary. Morelia is the capital of Michoacán, a land of immense beauty. Michoacán is the colonial Spanish translation of the Nahuatl word Mechuacan, which means 'place of land of the fisherman'.

Book your hotel in Morelia well in advance. From the modest posadas to the luxury five-star establishments, the city offers many possibilities for lodging. The following hotels have arranged special fares for participants in the conference.
