The hotel's architecture intentionally contrasts old and new, pairing preserved colonial elements with minimalist concrete forms and contemporary Mexican design.

In addition to taking in its rich history, many visitors use Oaxaca City as a base to explore surrounding sites, including the mystical ruins of Mitla and Monte Albán.
