Fodor's Review:

In the heart of the city, this family-owned hotel has long been a local landmark. Its neoclassical facade, with flags from a dozen countries waving in the breeze, will remind you of a small lodging in Spain. The lobby, with wood-beamed ceilings and blue-and-beige tile floors, is well worn but extremely charming. The best rooms have French doors leading out to small balconies; the six suites have terrific views of the main square. Breakfast is served on the rooftop terrace, which overlooks the mountains. From an eye-catching tile wall, a waterfall drops into the beautiful tiled swimming pool. The restaurant, Mark's at the Meliá, is one of the best on the island. Pros: great location on the main square; walking distance to downtown sites; good dining options in and near hotel. Cons: rooms are somewhat outdated; front rooms are a bit noisy.
