    We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location near the river in the historic district was perfect. We were right near the main attractions of the colonial zone, making it easy to explore the city. The hotel facilities were excellent, and we particularly enjoyed the pool area. The staff was extremely competent and provided wonderful service. The breakfast was great, and we loved starting our day with a delicious meal.

    Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.

    The hotel's location was perfect, situated in the vibrant Zona Ciudad area. The renovated former monastery exuded elegance and tastefulness, with its stylish rooms and well-equipped amenities. The breakfast at the cloisters was marvelous, and the architect's integration of old elements was outstanding. The staff was great, and the check-in process was quick.

    Almost perfect.
