I had a remarkable experience at 1890, nestled within a recently rejuvenated boutique hotel with a rich historical pedigree. The ambiance exudes sophistication and allure, characterized by dark interiors, diverse stone textures, antiqued mirrors, tasteful wallpapers, and plush furnishings that collectively create an inviting atmosphere.
Our culinary journey commenced with an off-menu delight: jamon iberico paired elegantly with pitted olives. For the main course, we savored josper-grilled pork chops and a decadent wagyu NY striploin in a red wine reduction, complemented by velvety smooth mashed potatoes. The meal was superbly crafted and accompanied by impeccable service, culminating in an indulgent finale with an opera cake.
Beyond the dining experience, the boutique hotel itself is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, featuring exquisite stonework, intricate brick detailing, luxurious textures, and lush tropical greenery. The building, steeped in history dating back to 1890, has been lovingly restored with a nod to local architecture, preserving its original facade and ensuring a visual delight for design aficionados.
I highly recommend arriving early to explore the hotel's captivating grounds and delve into its fascinating history. The hotel staff was so accommodating and happily gave us a tour of the grounds and a look inside one of the suites.
Pro tip: Begin your evening at La Copa, their lounge and bar, for a delightful aperitif. Your visit promises to be an unforgettable journey through time and taste.
