Fishburn and Hughes: "A name invented by Amanda Molina Vedia. In a note for an American edition of 'Death and the Compass' Borges wrote: Triste-le Roy itself is a heightened and distorted version of the roomy and pleasant "Hotel las Delicias", which still survives in so many memories.' Distinguishing features of the imagined villa Triste-le-Roy, such as its portico, its niches with half-dressed nymphs and its patio with white diamond-shaped tiles, can be seen in an engraving of the hotel by Borges's sister Norah."
