Princess Ico, a legendary name

Located in the Villa de Teguise, the most charming town on the island due to its historical-artistic heritage.

The artist César Manrique included this property in his book “Lanzarote, inédita architecture”, published in 1973, a reference work of the island's traditional architecture.

Our hotel is located in a large manor house from 1690 that preserves original architectural details of great value, such as the design of the property, the tile floors, the 5-meter-high coffered ceilings, the wide stone walls and its wooden balconies, all carefully restored so that history continues to shine for many more centuries.

In 2017, the Government of the Canary Islands granted us the category of Emblematic Hotel, the first in Lanzarote, as it is located in a property classified as historical heritage.

The canary patio

It is one of our clients' favorite places. A corner to enjoy the outdoors and listen to the ringing of the bells of the Teguise church.

Art in the Palace

Our hotel is full of ART, DESIGN and CULTURE. Throughout our rooms hang works by different artists, such as the prestigious Canarian painter Ildefonso Aguilar or the photographer Linus G. Jauslin. Most of the pieces used in the Ico Palace come from artists and craftsmen of Lanzarote (ceramics, crockery, sculptures, paintings, photographs, lamps...). We are passionate about art and it was already permeating these walls before our arrival. 

The visionary Swiss artist Heidi Bücher, who based her work on the historical and architectural, skinning and flaying spaces that for her had a personal meaning, fell in love with this mansion, who was its previous owner. The artist has exhibited, among other places, at MoMA, the Pompidou, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, or the Venice Biennale. + at www.heidibucher.com

Wabi Sabi Inspiration

That's why we have unique pieces in rooms that over time make them more beautiful. 

Wabi Sabi, “is a Japanese aesthetic term that describes a type of aesthetic vision based on ‘the beauty of imperfection’ and minimalism. Only nine rooms, each with its own personality, where we try to preserve the original size of the spaces, some up to 65 square meters, designed in a rational, minimalist way, and with natural elements. In the suites you can enjoy spacious bathrooms in micro-cement with the intention of transmitting freshness, quietness, a feeling of serene melancholy and spiritual longing.
