This stylish boutique hotel southwest of town is exceptional value when compared with some of the heritage hotels crammed into the old quarter. Rooms are well appointed with modish bathrooms and flat-screen TVs, and all face the inviting central swimming pool and Jacuzzi. Extra touches include a well-equipped gym and free use of bicycles. Staff are super friendly and the place is well organised.
