“This spot wins on location, pure and simple; you can walk to the Rebeira district easily. It's an older, smaller property, so expect basic accommodations, but 24-hour staff keeps things running smoothly. For late-night fun, there's a lively bar around the corner, and Tarantino's next door is ideal for a relaxed outdoor meal.”
Charlotte EvansHead of Editorial at Hotelsdowntown
