Hotel Acontraluz
Cosy haven of solitude in the city



Antique decor, wooden floors and a palate of warm tones create a snug atmosphere at the family-run boutique hotel Acontraluz, located in one of Cerro Alegre’s finest examples of 19th-century German architecture. Facilities in the former mansion – and one-time home of the owners – include indoor and alfresco dining areas, an underground bar and an in-house cinema. The artistic theme is continued in the decoration of the rooms, with works from local painters adorning the walls.
