About Casa de la Real Aduana Boutique Hotel
At the beginning of the 16th Century when Mexico was known as New Spain, the first Royal Customs House of the Pacific coast was built in Patzcuaro. In a perfect hacienda style, with a wraparound veranda and a central courtyard, it is a gem of the Spanish Colonial architecture. Listed as a Historical Monument, this noble residence houses today the Hotel Casa de la Real Aduana and LaFolia Arte.
