Quinta Real is a chain of luxury hotels with properties all over Mexico. What makes their hotel in Zacatecas special is that it is built in the former Plaza de Toros de San Pedro, a 17th century bullfighting ring. Today the hotel, which sits next to the enormous town aqueduct, has replaced Matadors with managers and the only people that still run around the arena are the bell boys. The rooms are what is to be expected of a luxury hotel and the reputed restaurant and bar profit from their view out across the arena which has been turned into a courtyard which you can also admire from your personal room terrace.
