Live La Vida Tequila At This Mexican Hotel Where You Sleep In A Barrel And Sip From The Source

We're not saying that we for sure found the best place on Earth, but we're not saying that we didn't, either.

Things are bound to get tipsy when we tell you about Matices, Hotel de Barricas (literally meaning hotel of barrels), which is a boutique hotel located within a tequila distillery just outside the Mexican town of Tequila. Yes, the name speaks for itself.

It's worth a shot to visit this saucy hotel.

Matices givers visitors the opportunity to sleep in a huge, barrel-shaped room that resembles an actual tequila barrel, while being simultaneously surrounded by a field of blue agave, the plant used in the production of tequila.

And you, of course, get to drink tequila!

This hotel is barrels of boozy fun.

The rooms are also very high quality and fully equipped with all the standard hotel amenities.

They include everything from TV access and air conditioning to bathrobes and mini bars, and even a private jacuzzi in the Extra Aged barrel room.

Live a little, drink a lot.

La Cofradía, the property housing the hotel, has an on-site tequila distillery that produces 15,000 liters of tequila per day.

The tasting sessions and guided tours of the distillery are a must, as they allow guests to observe the entire distillation process up close, which frankly, sounds like the best thing ever. Did we mention that you get to drink tequila?

Treat yo' self.
