But in addition to Cristina's disappearance, a series of murders occur in the town where the hotel is located, so detective Ayala (Jesús Ochoa) arrives from the capital to clarify these events; however, during his stay the mysteries around the place increase and it is growingly difficult to decipher them.
Julio Olmedo enters as a waiter at the Gran Hotel where he meets Andrés Salinas (Carlos Rivera), the son of the hotel's housekeeper, Ángela (Daniela Romo). A great friendship is born between Julio and Andrés that over time turns into brotherhood. Therefore, Andrés helps Julio investigate what happened to his sister.
The Gran Hotel is where the best families of the time come to spend their days of rest and recreation, without knowing that love and death wander within, since mysteries accumulate day by day.
