Frommer's Review
Overlooking the Presidential Palace, just a few steps from Market Square, this gem of a hotel was built in 1952 and subsequently renovated to high standards of glamour. Associated within the same chain as the Kämp Hotel, it offers guest rooms overlooking the harbor. All rooms are decorated with elegant but restrained taste, and the most expensive ones have balconies. Most units have sitting areas; all have good-size tiled bathrooms with tub/shower combos. The best units also come with double basins, robes, and bidets.
The 10th-floor dining room, Palace Gourmet, is a preferred luncheon stopover (it's closed in the evening). The hotel's nighttime dining area, La Cocina, offers Spanish and continental food.
Facilities:
2 restaurants; 2 bars; indoor pool; sauna; limited room service; babysitting; laundry service/dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
