Hotel Boutique Convento Cadiz | Best places to stay in Cadiz

"Near the historic centre of Cadiz, a five-minute walk from the train station and beach, this atmospheric hotel in a handsome Dominican convent of 1635 is unusual in that part of it is still inhabited by friars (although you probably won’t run into them). The bedrooms in the former cells, however, are no longer monkish, but comfortably done up in chocolate and oatmeal tones, all facing the pretty tiled cloister with its sculpted marble wells; some also overlook the port. The staff are very friendly (if you’re driving, be sure to ask in advance about parking, which is tricky in Cadiz). They do a hearty buffet breakfast, and will tell you about the best restaurants and tapas bars are close by. It makes a great base for whatever you want to do in Cadiz, and for its fun-packed carnival. " - Dana Facaros
