Your Cosmopolitan Homestay
at Casa 426
Experience a unique blend of cosmopolitan style and deep cultural immersion at our design-forward homestay. Located in a uniquely restored 1920's neo-colonial style home in the authentic heart of the Guadalajara's walkable Centro Histórico steps from cathedrals, museums, and vibrant culture. Hosted by an American expat who now calls Guadalajara home, we offer your a gateway to both the vibrant modern energy and the timeless soul of Mexic's second city.
Ideal for both short getaways and comfortable monthly stays.
​​​
This is the kind of place where:
-
You can stay out as late as you want and sleep in as long as you wish.
-
You will get practical tips on neighborhoods to explore, hidden gems locals know, great tours to take, new food stands to try, art openings down the street, introductions to conversation groups, and personal introductions to people who share your interests.
-
You are free to do your own thing—but never feel totally alone in a new city.
