Hotel Posada del Hidalgo is a beautiful colonial mansion. This attractive structure was built in 1890 by Señor Rafael Almada, a wealthy and influential "alcalde" (mayor) who spent five years and 100,000 gold pesos on its construction. The wooden trim was made from 285 Canadian red pine beams.

Colonial Mexico's exquisite charm has been superbly blended with today's modern conveniences to creat the Posada del Hidalgo Hotel. Be sure to notice the historical documents and artifacts displayed in the hotel as you stroll the lovely tropical gardens.

The Hotel has 68 rooms with three styles. One style is the old high ceilings with 240 Amapa wood beams and two story balconies which are the original bedrooms of the mansion. The newer style rooms face the spacious and breathtaking garden, typical of the old tropical colonial houses.
