"The rooms of this boutique hotel and bar are bright and designer-ish, with a Moorish theme. The accommodation is set around a much more traditional courtyard." Full review

Make sure you get an upstairs room, either overlooking the street (great views but noisier) or the courtyard (quieter but smaller). Avoid the small ground-floor bedroom right beside the restaurant.

"This establishment is smaller, more refined and more endearing than the Westin Palace across the street, which tends to host more Americans and conference groups than the more elaborate Ritz." Full review
