The Windsor Hotel bar
A 1900s lounge bar with leather armchairs, left exactly as it was.
€€ Mid-range
The former bathhouse club of British officers, turned hotel, has kept its first-floor bar: parquet, ceiling fans, barrels turned into seats, a simple list. You drink a beer as in 1950, with no music and no screen.
The extra bit
Go up in the original lift if you can: it is part of the visit.
Know before you go
The hotel is modest and the bar unpretentious: a place of memory, not a palace bar.
