Stay onsite in the beautiful Tocal Barracks.

Each suite allows guests to enjoy the same views of sweeping hillsides and colonial buildings in air conditioned comfort. For those cool evenings, at the push of a button, a restored fireplace is available to warm the sitting room.
The sitting room, kitchenette and bathroom are downstairs while the sleeping quarters are located upstairs. Tea and coffee making facilities are available in each little kitchenette with a Nespresso machine, kettle, toaster and a bar fridge provided. [...]
