• As a historic property, you can appreciate the Andalusian elements, like the interior courtyard and marble floors.

• While there isn't a gym or a pool, the walkable city is surrounded by water, with the port only 5 minutes away and La Caleta Beach about 15 minutes away.

Authenticity

Casa Cánovas is a stately historic home transformed into Cádiz's first boutique hotel. The look, curated by the Spanish interior design studio, LUZIO, and owner Ninfa Delfin, features a blend of historical and contemporary elements, including velvet furniture, checkerboard marble, and baroque-style headboards. The upscale hotel revolves around a traditional Andalusian inner courtyard, and tall-ceilinged rooms offer luxurious touches like Egyptian cotton sheets and Devon & Devon bathtubs. And for fun, a piece of local history is tied to the property; it was thought to have once been a brief refuge for a smuggler injured during the city's March 10, 1820, massacre. The man wore an emblem (designating him a smuggler): a picture of a top hat-wearing lynx, the hotel's logo. 

Location

The boutique hotel is centrally located amid the cobblestone streets and pastel buildings of the ancient port city's Old Town, steps away from notable attractions, including Torre Tavira and squares Plaza de España and Plaza de Mina. The redbrick Neo-Mudéjar Gran Teatro Falla and the historic Cádiz Cathedral are both 8 minutes away on foot, while the port is 5, and the sandy La Caleta beach is 15. Despite being in a bustling area, the hotel is relatively untouched by outside noise.

Rooms & Bathrooms

Casa Cánovas' 10 rooms reflect a distinctive personality. The decor is an elegant mix of historical and contemporary elements, featuring velvet furniture, checkerboard marble, antique brass lamps, chandeliers, and elaborate headboards against wallpapered accent walls. You'll find polished concrete and marble floors, tall ceilings (and windows), 300-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets, Ortigia bath products and bathrobes, as well as Devon & Devon bathtubs in select rooms (like the grand Double Deluxe). Upgraded units provide additional space, and for an indulgent treat, book the Premium Double Room for a private furnished terrace that also includes a soaking tub.
