In the heart of San Salvador’s Historic Center, where past and present converge, Cardedeu Hotel Centro Historico opens its doors as the only hotel within this emblematic area of the city. Located in the historic Edificio Colón, built in 1915, this space honors the memory of San Salvador while offering a modern and authentic experience for its visitors.

The Historic Center has witnessed the most transcendental moments of El Salvador since its founding in 1525. It has witnessed independence deeds, social movements and the architectural evolution of a city that never ceases to transform itself. Among its patrimonial jewels stands out the Colón Building, which in its time represented modernity and dynamism, and which today is reborn as Cardedeu Hotel Centro Histórico, a refuge where history is still alive.



“We want each guest to feel the essence of the Historic Center, that their stay is more than a visit and becomes a journey through time. Cardedeu is not just a hotel, it is an experience that connects the past with the present”, said Gabriela Sol, CEO of Cardedu Hotel.


Located a few steps from Plaza Gerardo Barrios, the National Palace and the National Library, Cardedeu Hotel Centro Historico offers 31 rooms designed to provide comfort without losing the historical essence of the place. Each room has hot and cold water, premium amenities, complimentary coffee, and bottled water. In addition, its rooms offer privileged views of the National Palace and the heart of the Historic Center, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the cultural legacy of the city.

Gastronomy with history and unparalleled views
The hotel has two unique gastronomic proposals that complement the experience: Silvestre restaurant with a fresh and close concept on the first level, ideal for those seeking authentic flavors.



The second proposal is CEACHE Rooftop Gastrobar, an exclusive space with the best 360º view of the Historic Center, perfect to enjoy the city from above.




Every corner of the hotel has been designed to pay homage to the history of San Salvador. In its rooms, paintings alluding to the Historic Center between 1900 and 1915 recall the cultural richness of the area, connecting each visitor with its legacy.



Cardedeu Hotel Centro Histórico is not only a place to stay, but an invitation to experience San Salvador from its purest essence. With a privileged location, an innovative gastronomic offer, and a warm and authentic service, it is positioned as the ideal destination for those seeking a real connection with the history and spirit of the city.
