I just got back from a trip that included a stay at the Hotel Avenida
Palace.

Thanks for that information - and thanks to everyone who responded.

I'm still undecided about a hotel. Money is not as much of an issue as
location and bedroom air-conditioning (which many of the older hotels do not
have). We're more inclined to stay in a hotel with character rather than a
square-box Marriott or similar, so we may have to forego the air-con.
