UNUSUAL HOTELS: QUINTA REAL ZACATECAS

 

 

Converted bullring, now luxury hotel combining history with service.

 

One of the world's most unusual hotels, the Hotel Quinta Real Zacatecas encircles the 17th Century San Pedro bullring. Blending the luxury of a modern, all-suite hotel with the splendour of original, colonial architecture, the hotel faces the city's ancient arched viaduct.

Your bed is recessed under a stone or wooden arch, in keeping with the splendid, colonial architecture of the hotel. Several rooms overlook the main plaza too.

The hotel provides the setting for memorable dining. Mexican and international cuisine is available at La Plaza restaurant, and El Botarel bar, with its colonial atmosphere and live music, is open from 6 pm until 1 am. Both are magnificently decorated and overlook the bullring plaza.

Quinta Real Zacatecas was built right into the old Plaza de Toros de San Pedro next to a majestic aqueduct that frames the unique beauty of this colonial city of limestone and silver.
