The legendary Marquis Don Juan Antonio de Urrutia y Arana had two remarkable monuments built in his lifetime: one, the massive 75-arch aqueduct of Querétaro that still stands today, and two, La Casa de La Marquesa, now one of Mexico's most beautiful luxury hotels.
Designed in the baroque style of the times, La Casa de La Marquesa is an architectural gem in a rapidly modernizing city. Here, room walls are decorated with ornate carvings; courtyards dotted with Moorish details, and shelves festooned with antiques.
Dining is elegant, simple and intimate at La Casa de La Marquesa, in either the tastefully sized Marchioness Dining Room or the exquisitely tiny Chapel, which can seat no more than 10. Perfect for you and your other half to spend the evening over a bottle of wine or two.
The two large and enclosed courtyards make perfect venues for weddings and other social events - gather your friends for a night under the stars, sheltered from the noise of the city.
