The hotel resulted from two old 1800 and 1900-year houses hear the Colón
theatre and facing restored San Carlos Palace. The first floor was built
in 1800 and subsequently remodeled in 1900 when the second floor was built
as part of the house property of an important clergyman. From that time
university legal consultation offices and several commercial establishments
functioned in the house. Finally a Colombian-Italian corporation decided
to restore whatever was left of the house to convert it into Opera Hotel.

lamps, tinted glass windows and the oratory.
