Lovely, rustic hotel & restaurant. Right in the Main Street of the city. Great attention to detail & personal service. It’s like traveling back in time. We had a parade of musicians performing in the afternoon & evening- opera, violin, guitar, tango… made for a beautiful ambience. The rooms make you feel like you’re in an 18th century abbey. Highly recommend!

Food and service five stars. The price for the night was a bit higher than other places, I would assume its because the location in the small town, near entrance. We ate here twice during our stay and I would def recommend it to eat. The rooms were standard, no tv, no hair dryer, just a place to rest after a day out.

This place is a dream. Absolutely beautiful hotel in the center of Real. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Love how our room was decorated. All the staff we encountered is lovely and so helpful. We had breakfast and dinner a couple of times during our stay and their food is delicious! My kids ordered pizza and it is the best in town.

I was in Real de Catorce over the New Year. Though I did not stay at the Hotel this time (great place to stay), the Hotel is one of the best if you like rustic. Petra, the owner is a wonderful resource and very hospitable. The restaurant in in the Hotel in my opinion, is the best in town. I ate there several times as I usually. New Years dinner was fabulous. I will be back there again.

Stepping through the doors was like taking a giant leap backwards in time. Thick rock walls and heavy wood beams and doors like a vault greet you in the entry. The decor is an exciting mix of art and artifacts. There building has been retrofitted for electric and water. The hotel services and the restaurant services were wonderful. Everything we ate and drank was delicious. Our room was a king suite with a double balcony overlooking the street which is closed to motor traffic. I could write a novel about the loveliness of this destination!
