Overview
This fine, neoclassical C18th mansion with four lookout towers, near the port and original custom's house by the Plaza de Espana in the old quarter of Cadiz, certainly has a history! Built by Fragela, one of the city's most famous and charitable of traders of the Indies, it has been declared a building of cultural interest.
Very recently, expertly, lovingly and beautifully restored and transformed into a very comfortable hotel, maintaining many of its original features, including oyster stone walls, it perfectly captures the feel of its time with contemporary touches.
Offering accommodation from light and airy double rooms to spacious apartments, all named after illustrious sailors who left a deep legacy, not only in Cadiz, but in Spain, it is furnished and decorated with elegance and care.
The little "bolt hole" in one of the towers, where you can relax with a book and a drink, and the stunning views from here and the rooftop terrace, add to the pleasure of staying in such a unique place.
The very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly staff will not only give you a very warm welcome, but will give you all the advice that you need and ensure that your stay is a memorable one.
