An 18th century hacienda converted into a charming boutique hotel in the heart of Merida’s historical centre.

There are just eight rooms, each one with tasteful contemporary furnishings, king size beds and air conditioning.  An internal courtyard and small pool are a sanctuary from the city’s bustling streets and the colonnades provide shady refuge from the Caribbean sun.

A few blocks from Merida’s central square, the hotel is ideally situated for discovering the city on foot. There is a small bar but no restaurant, but guests can take advantage of numerous eateries nearby.
