Have stayed at the El Dorado, Belmont, and the Mirabeau. All 3 were excellent with very comfortable accommodations and wonderful food!! Lots of day trips, concerts, grocery stores, shopping, and hiking readily available. Would love to spend several weeks or more in this area!! A bit expensive but the local grocery stores have anything you might want or need!! Couldn't ask for a more beautiful, picturesque, or relaxing place!

Es la ciudad más hermosa que conozco. Tiene lo moderno y lo antiguo conviviendo de manera que no chocan. Se es muy feliz allí, trabajando o paseando. El buen trato de la gente y el respeto por todas las personas no lo he visto en otra parte. El orden y la seguridad e digna de elogio y olíticos del mundo ven en ella un ejemplo a iimitar en sus respectivas ciudades
