La Quinta Luna is situated in the oldest living city of the American Continent, Cholula, in the outskirts
of Puebla, approximately 70 miles east from Mexico City. The hotel is located in the quarter of Santa María
Xixitla, which is part of the city of Cholula since the prehispanic period. La Quinta Luna was found in a
seventeenth century mansion, which was completely restored in 1996-1998 by the Cárdenas González de Cossío
family, who still lives in it and manages the hotel.
The house is a catalogued historic building which fully
preserves its original structure. During colonial times, the house probably hosted Don Juan de León y Mendoza,
a descendent of the Prehispanic indigenous nobility and one of the most important chiefs of the earlier
eighteenth century. Today, there is an exquisite contrast between classical colonial arquitecture which is
represented by the building, and contemporary Mexican art which dresses its walls with colour and form. La Quinta
Luna Hotel is truly one of the finest and most unique hotels that Puebla, or any part of Mexico, has to offer.
Within La Quinta Luna there is a library, which was wholly built with old wooden beams of the seventeenth
century that were saved whilst restoring the house. It contains approximately 3000 books including a wide
collection of design, economic history books, books on Mexican artists, books with photographs of Colonial and
Prehispanic Mexico, and Spanish and English language literature. The guests may have access to the library and
borrow books during their stay. La Quinta Luna also offers you the following ammenities in each of its seven
unique, luxurious rooms:
• TV • DVD • Internet • Hairdryer • Bath robe • Slippers • Minibar • Coffee service • Safety box •
The lobby and the restaurant are placed where the Old Chapel was originally situated. Besides presenting the most
outstanding art pieces, there is a carved stone of colonial origin and the most antique and original wooden
ceiling, on which the date 19th of April, 1736 is inscribed on a beam. The hotel offers breakfast, lunch and dinner,
mainly for the guests of the hotel. The menu offers Mexican dishes, from traditional to nouvelle recipes
with traditional ingredients. It also includes international cuisine dishes. Meals may be served in the
restaurant, the patio or in your room. We await your visit at La Quinta Luna
