WHAT WE LOVE...

URSO is an upmarket boutique hotel with a restaurant loved by locals in an area that is known for its trendy independent boutiques and lively bars, about a 20-minute walk from the main touristy area around Puerto de Sol. Enjoy a quiet cocktail in the lounge while flicking through a range of international publications and enjoying the seductive sounds of a live pianist. Then tuck into traditional Spanish food accompanied by regional wines in the restaurant Casa Felisa. A subterranean spa includes a raised swimming pool, sauna and steam room and a range of beauty and body treatments, while the bedrooms are light and airy with minibars and coffee machines. Top-floor suites have terraces with views over the neighbourhood.
