Although the rooms at the boutique Limes are tight, they do make good use of limited space, with plush bedding, kitchenette and work space. Thoughtful extras include Nespresso coffee machines, free wi-fi and mini-bar treats. While we love the rooftop hot tub, bar and cinema, it can make for noisy nights; bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.
