Valeriana hits all the right notes with seven beautifully furnished rooms and posh common areas, including a stylish lounge and a rooftop terrace with views. The rooms don't stint on luxury, and the best have king-sized beds with French doors overlooking the pedestrian street out front. Good breakfasts and an honesty bar add to the value.
