Hotel Encanto Rijo is the former residence of renowned doctor Don Rudesindo García Rijo (1818), hence the name.
This boutique hotel, ideally situated on the square "Plaza Honorato", has been fully renovated and restored in 2001. Since then it is one of the most appealing hotels in the Cuban provinces. The authentic colonial style is reflected by the bright blue façade with typical columns, the inner patio with fountain and the wrought iron balconies amongst other characteristics.
Breakfast is served on the patio and the bar area, but the nicest place is on the veranda between the iconic columns. This is also a great spot for a sundowner or to enjoy your dinner.
Throughout the whole hotel the colonial history has been respected and enhanced by the wooden staircases, brick walls, historic floor tiles, wrought iron details and high beamed ceilings. This atmosphere is maintained in the rooms.
Points of interest close by include the Church "Nuestra Señora de la Caridad", the square "Parque Serafín Sánchez", the medieval style bridge "Puente Yayabo" and for some musical distraction the Casa de la Trova is around the corner.
