An elegant
big house
from the
18th
century,
located very
closely to
the Old
Square,
opens as a
cozy hotel,
where the
combination
of modern
and old
architectural
elements
stresses the
originality
of its
attractive
design.
This noble
house, built
by Gabriel
Beltran de
Santa Cruz's
parents, the
first San
Juan de
Jaruco
Count, later
belonged to
the
distinguished
Cárdenas de
Monte
Hermoso
Marquis's
descendants.
The most
illustrious
visitors to
the city
gathered in
this house:
the Baron
Alejandro de
Humboldt;
eminent
German
scientist,
and three
French
princes, the
Beaujolais
Count, the
Montpensier
and the
Orleans
Dukes. The
Orleáns Duke
later became
Philip I of
France.
The Beltran
de Santa
Cruz hotel,
an exquisite
hotel that
is reborn in
the old
city, will
leave
indelible
memories on
you.
