Hotel de la Soledad

The Hotel de la Soledad was first mentioned in the early years of the eighteenth century. It was 1735, and Regidor de Valladolid D. José Antonio lvarez de Eulate and Marcilla Mendevil, originally from the Kingdom of Navarra, and his wife Da. Andrea Manuela de Anaya, originally from the city of Patzcuaro, purchased the old house, which they were forced to demolish due to its deterioration and unfortunate conditions, and instead built the ground floor of the hotel. The tragic loss of his only son D. Faust in 1748 caused the marriage to put the project on hold indefinitely.

After becoming a popular hotel near the end of the 18th century, the Mexican War of Independence (which lasted from 1810 to 1821 and ultimately signaled Mexico's independence from Spanish rule) took its toll on local business, and the hotel accumulated growing debts. The venue was renamed Hotel de Michoacán when the financial troubles were handled in the 1830s, but people continued to refer to it as 'Hotel de la Soledad', which later became its official title and appears destined to remain. More recently, in the year 2008, the outstanding Hotel de la Soledad's repair began. The Hotel de la Soledad is one of the oldest hotels in the world.
