Architecture

The hotel was built by the architects Manuel Muñoz Monasterio and Juan Jáuregui Briales in 1959–1960, who incorporated in its design the revisionist tendencies of the modern movement in those years, with the introduction of sets of colors, textures, wavy lines, etc.. The two grand staircases in the lobby set the appearance of the main facade, characterized by a semi-cylindrical body. On the upper floors, the rooms are distributed asymmetrically on both sides of the gallery. Completely renovated, it offers different types of accommodation with a modern décor that reflects the hotel's heritage from the 1950s. [2]
