700-477 Casa Brier Hotel Project

Ideal hotel business due to its privileged location and historical value.
A short distance to the town of Puerto de la Cruz, North Tenerife and within walking distance of Bollullo Beach.
La Casa Brier, also known as � Casa Diaz Flores � has an area of 1,300 m2 and large gardens of around 3,200 m2 which contain many fruit trees and rare specimen tropical plants.
It is situated in the historical part of the town of Oratava and this building was declared a �Property of Cultural Interest� part of the historical heritage of Tenerife.
In 1862 Antonio Flores Diaz Cartaya rented the house to Jose Govea Arbelo who converted it into a hotel, called "The Govea".
This well-known hotel was frequented by the British Luxury tourists of the time.
In 1867 the renowned General Serrano (who give his name to the famous street of Madrid, Serrano) stayed at the hotel during his exile in the Canary Islands.
It was also the residence of the painter Marianne Norte while staying in La Orotava, in January 1875.
Probably in the same room as did Richard Burton - an adventurer who took part in the discovery of the source of the Nile.
Later in 1888, it was called "Hotel Hesperides" and was directed by the French and then by Paul Michael Charles Metson, an English administrator, who transform it into a real English style Hotel, introducing appropriate improvements.
At that time he stayed among other personalities, such as George Graham-Tolder.
This luxury estate also has potential for further development.
There is a small, Canarian style house on the estate which could easily be converted into a separate guest chalet.
The basement of the house contains a communal space ideal for conversion into staff quarters or spare bedrooms and also three separate rooms with two bathrooms.
Viewing of this property is highly recommended in order to fully appreciate the high quality fixtures and fittings throughout and the potential for further conversion means any prospective buyer has a wealth of options as to its use.
