Hotel El Fuerte

Welcome to Hotel El Fuerte, located in a lovely colonial hacienda. The beginning of the hacienda's construction is lost in the haze of time, believed to begin in the middle of the seventeenth century. The hacienda has been restored over 20 years and continues to do so as an ongoing project. Currently, this 300-year-old hacienda welcomes guests to this remarkable landmark, full of the wonderful ambiance of yesterday. All modifications and changes were made without losing the house's original style, but now with modern installations like private bathrooms, air conditioning, cable television, a bar, and dining room. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available in the lobby areas.

The entire structure features high open-beamed ceilings, two—to three-foot-thick walls, Mexican tile and marble floors, various niches, and hand-painted decorations. All furnishings, including numerous antiques, align with the Spanish Colonial Era. The hotel also boasts a large collection of artifacts and local art on display.

In the courtyard, huge natural and artificial boulders form a 15-person jacuzzi with a 12-foot-high waterfall. Plants and bugambilias create a most relaxing private patio. The central garden patios are all paved in Mexican tile with lush green foliage and flowering bugambilias. The hacienda offers guests an on-site bar and restaurant with a menu full of regional dishes. Without a doubt, Hotel El Fuerte is the most beautiful and preserved hacienda in northern Mexico.
