Hospederia Las Cortes De Cadiz, Cádiz

Advantages: weather, people, beaches, food, prices,
Disadvantages: too hot?

...services than the first one, with it’s big pool and garden, and lots of things. This three hotels are the best ones I’d say, all of them four stars hotels. There’s another one with that same ‘rate’, ‘Hotel Puertatierra’, then there are two three stars hotels, ‘Hospedería Las Cortes de Cádiz’, and ‘Hotel Francia Paris’ (located at San Francisco Square, in the old part of the town, in a very good part of Cádiz), and thwn there’s only two more hotels to talk about, both of them with two stars, ‘Hotel Regio’ and ‘Hotel Regio 2’. And that’s it, with this information you should have no problem to find the perfect place for you to stay at if you visit my home town, I’m sure there’ll be one that suits for you. *Culture: I don’t want to talk about every single museum, monument, theatres, etc. , I’ll only name the most important ones and give...

Advantages: History, beahches, seafood, sherry
Disadvantages: Can get unbearably hot in summer, the harsh Atlantic wind

...area of Cadiz was the tiny Plaza de las Flores - a little square which emerges at the end of a narrow lane where there area handful of flower stalls selling any flower you can think of in a rainbow of beautiful colours.

Advantages: Cheap, Quite and a non turistic place
Disadvantages: Windy, Very few people speak English

...First of all, it is not Cadix but Cadiz. I was actually born there and Cadiz is both a city and a province. The city is a very small one, only 7 Km long and about 3Km wide. It has a few very nice hotels facing the beach, which is as long as the city and very crowded during the summer. Since the City is very near to Africa, the climax is very warm even during the winter. It is very humid as well, so it can get chilli at night. It is a very familiar city but it is very difficult to find people who speak English, so I recommend to go with someone who understands spanish. It is not at all a turistic place, so it makes it very quite, not really for clubbing but to relax, have nice food and lay on the beach. Cadiz province is mostly small white villages and plenty of mediterranean forest in the interior. Quite good for walking and climbing... Read review
