Best thing is the location 5 minutes to castle walk, amphitheatre. Less than that to the cathedral and Picasso museum and lovely tapas, my favourite being Casa Lola. 15 minutes to the port and beach. Negatives however are that it lacks atmosphere and so you wouldn't want to do more than sleep there.

Hotel Palacio Solecio is a beautiful and stylish property in a fantastic central location. The restaurant is absolutely stunning — it feels like something straight out of the 1940s. Our room was comfortable and well-decorated, though the “outward-facing” view turned out to be directly into another window. The location makes sightseeing easy, but it also meant the room was very noisy at night, which made sleeping difficult. The bathroom looked lovely, but the shower pressure was weak and hard to regulate, and the sliding door was awkward to use in the dark. During our visit, the front of the hotel was covered in scaffolding. The pool, located in a separate building, was attractive but small, unheated, and busy, so loungers were hard to find. Service was polite but not particularly warm. I had emailed ahead about a special occasion and was told a note would be added, but nothing was acknowledged at check-in or during the stay. Information about facilities (like the pool) was also unclear. Overall, this is a very pretty hotel with lots of style, but a few practical issues and lapses in service meant it didn’t fully live up to expectations.

This is a great Hotel. It is currently covered in scaffolding which was initially disappointing. There was no building work happening whilst we were there because of the Feria but it would be worth checking before booking. That said, everything else was spot on, can’t fault it. Lovely room, food, service and facilities. Would definitely stay again.
