Two historic mansions · Mérida's Centro Histórico
Two adjacent Historical Monuments under one family name:
The 1890 Colonial Original and its 1850 Porfirian sister.
A sanctuary within one of the most vibrant cities in Mexico: Mérida, Yucatán.

Two hotels · One family
You don't choose a hotel. You choose which mansion feels like yours.
A few doors apart on the same colonial street in the historic heart of Mérida stand two adjacent mansions — side by side under one family name, both declared Historical Monuments, both protected and supervised by INAH, the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia, both run by the same dedicated team.
Explore each below to make your decision.
A restored 1890 colonial monument and the mansion that started it all. Fourteen individually designed rooms gather around a green courtyard and pool — recognised for 20 years as one of Mérida's finest boutique hotels, and still the warmest welcome in the Centro.
A clear tier above. An 1850 Porfirian-style mansion of just five rooms and suites, a few steps from the central park. Spacious poolside rooms with private balconies, the purest colonial detail, and a level of personalised service reserved for very few guests at a time.
Two mansions, one spirit
Stay in the relaxing Original or the intimate VIP mansion next door. Whichever you choose, the best of Mérida is at your door: after a treatment at the spa, stroll to Plaza Grande, the cathedral, or Parque Santa Lucía and its celebrated restaurants like Apoala — or head the other way to El Remate de Paseo de Montejo and the vibrant Corredor Gastronómico, through Parque Santa Ana, home of chef Roberto Solís's Michelin-starred Huniik and La Barra de Huniik.
