这座由17世纪建筑改建的旅馆具有浓浓的墨西哥式豪华风格。
其位于墨西哥阿兹克老城区的心脏，使用了阿兹克族宫殿和后来西班牙人修建的教堂
的部分石头。



红色的火山岩墙面，石材框架，还有手工预置水泥砖都是这个多庭院的石材旅馆的特
色。原有建筑被保留，并融入两种旅店概念：精品式酒店和青年旅社。

旅店的内庭院多被环廊围绕，院子的分布使得酒店获得更多的自然采光与通风，减少
了对能源的消耗。

酒店的客房多数设置在二层和三层，内部装潢古香古色，家具为定制，灯具十分复
古。红色火山岩墙面是内部装饰的主角，这种颇具贵族气息的材料奠定了房间的基

旅店屋顶有餐厅和泳池，能俯瞰全城美景。



Located near ' El Zocalo’, right in the heart of the old city where the Aztecs first settled
and afterwards the Spaniards built churches and palaces using the existing stones that
were part of the Aztec pyramids.

“Downtown” is settled on a magnificent palace, witness of the XVII century architecture.
Known as the “Palacio de los Condes de Miravalle”, the red volcanic rock walls, the
multiple doors, window quarry frames and the handmade cement tiles, along with the
glorious patios and a spectacular stone-forge staircase provide the building the unique
flavor of the Mexican vice regal style.

The intervention preserved the original façades and the main walls, and although we
took advantage of the general distribution of the space, a new order with a
contemporary look was proposed, attributing a new identity and character to the
building.

The architectural program is original and innovative, with a combination of boutique
hotel and hostel within the same building. Both concepts are spatially separated
working as two different elements.

The access floor welcomes the visitor into an interior patio of triple height, a clear
representation of the important colonial heritage. The ground floor has two other inner
courtyards, which separate the spaces and surround the corridors resembling a
Hacienda.

The patios are the main distributors of space, allowing natural light and ventilation into
the hotel and consequently decreasing the use of energy, artificial light and air
conditioning. The guest rooms are located in the first and second level and are
attractively designed in neutral tones, spiced up with retro lamps and custom designed
furniture.

The traditional red brick is protagonist through the interiors. By taking advantage of the
nobility of this material, we designed a lattice which is constant in the rooms, furniture
and walls. The rooftop is equipped with a restaurant and pool, offering panoramic views
of the city and crowning the project.
