This Italian-managed boutique hotel, opened in 1997, celebrates traditional Mexican design through the respectful vision of a European architect, further refined over the years by a resident Mexican designer. Located in Casco Viejo (the old town featuring Mayan ruins alongside charming single-story homes and restaurants from the late 1970s), the hotel offers convenient access to beaches, pedestrian areas, the ferry dock, and bus stations. Guests enjoy a safe, characteristic neighborhood where a mix of European and Mexican residents live alongside established local families.
