Boutique hotel housed in a charming 18th-century building
Housed in an 18th-century building, previously an old trading center, Las Casas De Los Mercaderes is a boutique hotel oozing in Spanish charm. It's situated on a pedestrian cobblestone street, meaning no traffic noise. The lobby is an open area with tiled floors, cream walls, thin black pillars, small reception desk, lounge area, and corner grand piano. Leading off from the lobby, the central courtyard and its brightly-colored mosaic glass roof is the main highlight here, offering a lovely place for guests to enjoy breakfast each morning. The inner hallways are lined with antique black and white artwork on the walls, while the outer hallways are open to the central courtyard. The bar is adjacent to the hotel and features both indoor and al fresco seating on the street. Overall, the atmosphere here is warm and welcoming. Guests are mostly leisure travelers, both couples and solo, while the central location also attracts a few guests in town for business.
