Its position opposite the cathedral lends this hotel special grace. A range of rooms, from modest singles to light-filled doubles and suites, offers elegant accommodation, with a spa, sauna and rooftop plunge pool. Decoration varies considerably (tending towards the carpeted and plush) and the top-floor superior rooms with balcony are marvellous (and go for about €211).
