Fodor's Expert Review Meson del Mar

In an enchanting colonial-era building with long corridors and graceful arches, the Meson del Mar is an intimate hotel near the waterfront. A staircase leads up to a breezy patio where you have a view over the rooftops. Exposed-wood beams and tile floors in the guest rooms recall a more gracious era. Rooms facing the busy street have double-paned windows that keep out most noise. Gandara, the open-air restaurant, serves a wide variety of fish dishes.
