People told Francisco Martínez Martínez that a 53-room hotel in colonial dress would fail in Guadalajara. In 1986 he opened the first Quinta Real anyway, on Avenida México, with architects Ricardo and Roberto Elías building pink cantera, ivy, and arches, and Karen Collignon doing the interiors. A second wing followed in 1992, after the house posted the city's highest rates and occupancy.

About Quinta Real Guadalajara

History

Quinta Real Guadalajara opened in 1986 as the first hotel of the collection. Tapatío businessman Francisco Martínez Martínez backed it, and architects Ricardo and Roberto Elías of Elías Estudio designed a purpose-built house in colonial Mexican dress, pink cantera under ivy. Karen Collignon did the interiors. The original project had 53 rooms, and skeptics expected it to fail. Rates and occupancy came out the highest in the city, and a second construction phase followed in 1992. The first phase of construction dates to 1982. The house now sits with Grupo Camino Real, and the name on the door is still Quinta Real.

The setting

Avenida México 2727, Colonia Vallarta Norte, 44690 Guadalajara, in a residential stretch of the avenue. Glorieta de la Minerva is a short ride west. The historic center is farther in.
