While
in Greece, we heard the fascinating Ovideo's myth about Baucis
and Philemon, the couple whom Zeus made guardians of a temple
for their hospitality (read the full story on the right).
We like to think Baucis BH as our temple to take care, and
the guests the visitor God comming to Buenos Aires. So we
are honored to:
Welcome
you to the Tango and Wines Mecca!!! And Welcome to Baucis
Boutique Hotel, our design blend of styles, ideas, and manners
we’ve gathered traveling and in Casa Monserrat (www.casa-monserrat.com)
our first Boutique Hotel.
Recieve
our warmest regards, looking forward to recieving you soon.

Filemón y Baucis,
Baucis
and Philemon were the only ones to welcome the Zeus and
Hermes Gods, when they came disguised as ordinary peasants
and asked the people of the town for a place to sleep. They
shared the little they had, embodying the prious exercise
of hospitality. Zeus turned Baucis and Philemon's cottage
into an ornate temple and granted the wish to live together
forever as guardians of the fire. Upon their death, they
were changed into one oak and one linden trees.
