I just returned home
from Mexico, proposed the idea for the story about your hotel to my
editor at the LA Times and she wants it right away. Can you please
send her some of your photos? If you could send me the same ones you
send her, I'll be able to tell her how they fit into the story. Her
e-mail address for photos is: travel@latimes.com. In the subject
line, if you could just write "For Dawson's story", it
will get to the right place.
Please let me know when you get this e-mail if you are able to send
her photos in the next couple of days.
The column that this will run in called "Hidden Corners"
is rather brief (about 300 words) but I also plan to write a longer
version of the story to publish in other newspapers.One quick
question: In Mexican architecture, what do you call the beautiful
entryway to your hotel with the woven furniture and the artwork?
Regards,
Diana Dawson,

Without more for the moment, we remain at your service.
Attentively,

Just
returned from Copper Canyon, El Fuerte and Alamos. Fun trip,
weather on our side, and 247 species to show for our efforts
including Russet-crowned Motmot, Linneated Woodpecker, Lilac-crowned
Parrot, Mountain Trogon, Mottled Owl, Short-tailed Hawk, and
Roseate Spoonbill. Attached to this email are 2 trips I've
already sent out, May Bell Ranch and Ladder Ranch (space still
available), as well as Madera, Chihuahua in June. Madera is a
great area where we are assured of seeing Thick-billed Parrot and
Eared Quetzal. As I walk to work in downtown Santa Fe each
morning now, I have been listening to a vigorous Carolina Wren
singing behind the state capitol-reminding me that all sorts
of miracles are possible in the bird world. All the best, Bill

This past January we assisted the
Wests book a room in your hotel. She was with you while her
husband went on a fishing expedition. They very much enjoyed thier
visit and they DID thank us for helping them find your hote.We in
turn, thank you for making her feel welcome and safe while
her husband was away. In the future should we have
clients looking for a hotel in El Fuerte we will tell them about
yours.
Ours is an RV Caravan company.
We will visit El Fuerte RV park with about 15 Trailers and
Motorhomes again in January and take the trian for
our stay at Mansion Tarahumara. We have looked and and have
not found any other RV park in El Fuerte where we can
park between 10 and 20 RVs. Is there such a place that you might
know of?
While we are in El Fuerte next
January we will stop in to say Hola.

| Thank
you again for making my birthday so terrific! You are the
best. And what a beautiful place the Hotel Torres has
developed into. It has truly become a place where you can feel
enveloped by warmth and care, even cocooned away from the world like
a European "Relais de Silence." Kudos, Pancho.
You do good work. And I was tickled to see so many of
Suzanne's touches here and there, giving it that wonderul tropical
allure and upscale elegance. It was pretty impressive! Amor,
besos, abrazos, Michelee and Hal |

| I
was in Cerocahui this past weekend doing final scouting for the trip
next week. Met a person named Judy (American) who does booking
for 3 Amigos in Creel. She sang the praises of your hotel.
She also mentioned that Phillipe (our guide last November) is the
brother of Chal Gamez. Hope they are the ones doing the boat
trip on the 19th. Again, I would like to meet Chal the night
of the 18th if that can be arranged. See you the night of the
18th. Tell me again what turn I make coming in from the main
highway to get to Hotel Torres? Muchas gracias por todo su
ayuda, Bill. |

nice. I will let some people know...SP |

| Back
to Vienna , Austria , we really do enjoy to remember our stay in
Your house in El Fuerte on February 1 and 2 this year. It was
interesting, nice and relaxing – even more than we expected anyway
after having been there in May 2008, when we had also a very fine
time. So we would like to say “thank You” once more, especially
for the part of the second evening which You spent together with us!
With
best regards, R.

and I have recently picked up some excellent paving cantera and
other extraneous antique items from Francisco Torres, friend and
owner of the Hotel Torres in El Fuerte, Sinaloa, just down the track
from us here in Alamos.
Wonderful hotel, btw, with a fantastic chef. Soft beds, great food.
Lovely atmosphere. Thought I'd share the info.

Rod and I have
purchased some wonderful colonial doors and a gate from Jesus
Torres in El Fuerte. Jesus has still some doors both with
and without windows (and shutters). In addition we viewed
some beautiful cantera sinks and other stone items. I know
there is more stuff but we stopped him at doors as we didn't want
to find any more goodies.Jesus and Francisco are rennovating
Jesus' childhood home in El Fuerte as a hotel. It is
gorgeous! There are very tasteful rooms with many antiques.
There are ponds with ducks. There are ramadas thick with
vines and a wonderful wine "cellar" in the restaurant.
The hotel is just opening so I can't vouch for the service but it
would be difficult to find a more genuinely friendly and caring
host than Jesus Torres nor a more beautiful and peaceful setting
only steps from the plaza.I thought you all might like to
know.April Pruitt

We have now
returned from our holiday in Mexico and I wanted to say thank you
for the fantastic two days we spent at Torres del Fuerte. The
hacienda you have there is beautiful, and we were treated to a very
warm welcome (I think, by your father Jesus). I shall
certainly recommend your hotel if I have any friends visiting the
Copper Canyon region in the future! All the best, Duncan

Hola,
Don Jesus and Nora Torres. I am Steve, 1 of the guys from Michigan.
I was at your hotel with my friend John just a few weeks ago. I want
to thank you both for your hospitality while staying at your hotel.
We were very fortunate to have met you both. I want to also thank
you for the trip to Alamos, and the luncheon at your Navojoa
residence. These were the very kind of experiences we were hoping to
have! We ended up getting a ride from Jim, (the hostel owner) to
Tucson, where we caught our train back to Michigan.
Please say Hi to your
staff for us. They were very efficient, professional. and cordial.
John and I both have much warmth in our hearts for Anna,
especially since she did our laundry. I also have a special place
in my heart for Rossi.
Well, at any rate, we
truly enjoyed our stay in El Fuerte. I for one, am planning on
returning to your hotel in the not too distant future.
Sincerely, Steve Sarachman

accommodating host. Thanks
for having such a wonderful hotel,

Hace un par de semanas, un
grupo de amigos y yo llegamos a la estacion del Chepe en El Fuerte,
Sinaloa. Llegabamos con la recomendacion de hospedarnos en un
hotel del cual ya no recuerdo el nombre. Al arribar, un señor
apuesto, de pelo blanco bajó de un auto del mismo color, con unos
folletos en mano se dirigió al grupo y se ofreció llevarnos a un
hotel cerca del centro de el pueblo. Nos dijo que si no era de
nuestro agrado, no pagariamos en lo absoluto, o algo por el estilo.
Era un grupo de siete personas, en su auto se acomodoran
cuatro de ellos y salieron rumbo al hotel. El resto, en el cual me
incluyo, nos quedamos en la estacion a esperar un taxi. Esperamos
en esa humeda y quemante noche de verano por lo que parecio una
eternidad. El taxi nunca llegó. Afortunadamente, unas personas en
una pick-up ofrecieron llevarnos al hotel. En la pick-up viajaban
tres personas, y como pudimos nos acomodamos en la parte de atras
con todo y nuestro equipaje. Al llegar al hotel, lo que vi, no era
lo que yo esperaba, ya que la fachada de enfrente, como es de
esperar, esconde completamente lo maravilloso de la hacienda.
Estando adentro fui transportado a otra epoca, se respiraba otro
aire, el lugar es simple y sencillamente espectacular. En cuanto
descargué mi equipaje, me dirigi a la parte trasera de la casona,
atravesando por unos jardines muy bien cuidados, alla atras,
se encuentra un pequeño bar, pero muy acogedor. En el estaba toda
la palomilla, disfrutando unas muy bien merecidas cervezas bien
frias. ¿Y a quien veo detras del bar sirviendo a mis amigos? Al
mismo caballero que nos recibio en la terminal! Este hombre
trabaja de todo-pensé. Despues, me di cuenta que el era el dueño
del hotel! Nos trato de lo mejor. La comida estuvo fabulosa, nos
ofrecio unas botanas de camarones, callos y otros mariscos que
nadamas de pensar, quiero regresar. Y, si. Pienso regrasar. Cuando?
No lo sé. Mi nombre es Juan "Paco" Véliz, y estoy muy
agradecido con Don Jesus Torres por su amabilidad y gran sentido
de "customer service". Algo digno de aplausos. Don
Jesus, si recibe esta nota, a nombre de todos mis compañeros,
quisiera agradecerle por todas sus atenciones, y ojala nos veamos
muy pronto.
Salud, Juan Francisco

Hola
Jesus!!! We are back in Canada after a great trip. We would like to
thank you once again for getting us off to a good start. We
appreciated your hospitality and all of the time you spent with us.
The rooms were first class, the meals delicious, and the lunch on
the riverbank a memory for a lifetime! The best of luck and health.
