La Casa del Naranjo: casual, centric, simple elegance.<\/p>\n
The story of this hotel is fascinating not only because it is currently one of the most sought-after hotels in Quer\u00e9taro, but also because it involves passion, soul and feelings from its owner and founder Mar\u00eda de Jes\u00fas Narv\u00e1ez, who for those of us who have the pleasure to know her, is simply “Moreh”.<\/p>\n
This time we will share her comments about how the idea and concept of her beautiful and cozy hotel was born:<\/p>\n
“The architects only signed the planes and went over the technical issues, but I invented each of the spaces with my ruler, calculated the drainages, made the cement bars in the bathrooms with my own hands, flattened the walls with a mixture of lime, cactus juice and bats’ guano, kind of a magical mix… I was dressed as a mason, plumber, electrician, etc… I truly say it, when I remember it I start to laugh! So, there was no architect nut my heart and mi passion for doing things<\/em>!” says a proud Moreh.<\/p>\n The estate remodeling, made specifically to turn the original house into a “Boutique Hotel”, started in 2007. It was formerly a house and worked as a cultural space.<\/p>\n All the changes in the property were in charge of owner Mar\u00eda de Jes\u00fas\u00a0 Narv\u00e1ez Crespo, who is not an architect but who for 5 years worked building houses in the city. it was an engineer who signed as the responsible and who went over everything related to structural loads, as it was a house with traces from the 17th<\/sup> century with changes made almost all over in the 19th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n The new decoration was centered on “the orange tree” within the patio, which is thought to be over a hundred years old. It has been found that this property was part of the Santa Clara Convent, the first of its kind in the city which featured its own orchard with all kinds of fruit trees. From there comes the theme of every room, regarding a fruit tree.<\/p>\n Come and visit this beautiful place.<\/p>\n La Casa del Naranjo<\/p>\n
