Hotel de Cortes (Mexico City, Mexico)

It is believed that the building was constructed at the beginning of the 17th century and a few years later the order of Saint Augustine converted it into one of the first hospices in the Americas- where the orders monks were housed before embarking on missions to bring Christianity to the Philippines. In 1780- as indicated on our facade- the building was remodeled and baptized as the Hotel of Santo Tomas de Villanueva. Since then- the building has proudly stood through each and every key moment that has marked the history of our city.
