Summary
|
|
The old convent of Santa Catalina has adapted to its role as a hotel, without sacrificing its original style and grace. A romantic feeling still lingers in the charming courtyards and small enclosed patios. This is definitely for those who want to bathe in the ambiance of luxurious authenticity. The addition of a beautiful courtyard-enclosed swimming pool, breakfast buffet in the garden and the weekly Guelaguetza dinner-show celebration all add up to a magnificent blending of old and new; the pairing of simplicity and elegance. |
