Hotel Politeama
This is a nice hotel with some pros and cons. Pros: Good location close to good bakeries, coffee shops, shopping, and theaters. It's a fairly long walk to the Kalsa and Cattedrale, so not so convenient if you want to focus your sightseeing on those areas. The hotel is clean and the rooms are modern ...

Hotel Plaza Opera
The only problem was that the jacuzzi was booked the entire weekend and we were not able to use it which sucks. After that was the main reason to book the hotel. None of the spa services were available because over booked. They should alert when you make the reservation.
