The old quarter of Cadiz is a labyrinthine network of narrow streets, sunlit plazas, and whitewashed buildings that has changed little since the city's 18th-century heyday as Spain's wealthiest Atlantic port. The Torre Tavira offers panoramic rooftop views across the peninsula, while the Plaza de las Flores fills each morning with flower sellers and the scent of freshly ground coffee. Staying in Cadiz old town means immersing yourself in the freewheeling, music-loving culture of Spain's most underrated city.
