The History

The history of this hotel is extensive and somewhat dark overall. Acquired by a family with the name of “Dupepe” in the year of 1969, the property in which the hotel stands had a full history. Originally acquired by the “Ursuline Nuns”, it was created into a hospital for the individuals serving in the military around the year of 1722. The structure then exchanged hands a couple of times before a lawyer bought it. This individual then tore down the structure and put two buildings in place of it. Eventually, it was purchased by someone else and then turned into a place where people could buy coffee, and even stay. These two buildings burned down. This occurred in the year of 1874.

Once the building was destroyed by the fire that consumed it, another building was erected in the same location. For a short time, a seed company owned the building. However, it was finally sold to the Dupepe family in the year of 1969. It was at this time in which the building was transformed into the lavish hotel that stands today. However, some of the visitors, employees, and residents of the property seemed to have lingered throughout the years in spiritual form….
