Teotihuacán. A name with exotic resonance that is full of promises. The villa stands at the end of the Calzada de los Muertos (Avenue of the Dead), an ancient road at the center of Teotihuacán’s archaeological site, one of the most important and beautiful in the world. Along the same Calzada stands the magnificent Pirámide del Sol (Pyramid of the Sun), arguably Mexico’s most recognized landmark. Teotihuacán is located 26 miles northeast of Mexico City along the Ecatepec-Teotihuacán highway, an excellent toll road built specifically to provide direct access to Teotihuacán from the city. The typical drive time is approximately one hour.
Located directly within the archaeological zone, Villa Teotihuacán is a beautiful hotel with hacienda style décor where guests can enjoy the lush manicured gardens that surround the villa, or explore the adjacent archeological ruins and museum. Located within the villa grounds themselves are the remains of an ancient Aztec structure, to which hotel guests have privileged access.
Villa Teotihuacán rests peacefully against the exceptional backdrop of the immense Pyramid of the Moon. The rich greens of the abundant vegetation found throughout the property strike a harmonious contrast with the colors of the nearby ruins. The sizable remains of the authentic Aztec structure within the hotel’s property periphery add a unique highlight that blurs the boundaries between the archaeological site and the villa. Influenced by an Aztec heritage, detailed mosaic tiles adorn the public spaces, while a series of fountains provide a joyful song in the background. The 42 guestrooms are built around a central courtyard that features a large, refreshing pool and patio restaurant. Elegant fireplaces compliment both the bar and the restaurant.
