History

In 1899 an international competition was held for the construction of a large thermal spa hotel on the island of La Toja, the winner of which was Daniel Vázquez-Gulías from Ourense. Once the building was finished, and after it had been open for several years, the war led to it being transformed into an improvised hospital, which later became a thermal spa hotel. In 1945 the Eclecticist building underwent a major refurbishment by Francisco Javier Sanz y Martínez. Inside, it features a pictorial mural by Rafael Úbeda, a renowned artist from Pontevedra, at the entrance to the thermal spa.
