» Mama Shelter (Paris): a cross between boutique hotel and upmarket youth hostel, Mama Shelter is located in a peripheral Parisian neighbourhood, not far from the Boulevard Périphérique.
WEEKEND IDEAS
» Medina Mayrit (Madrid, Spain): as the only Turkish bath house of its kind in Madrid, the Medina Mayrit urban spa offers the perfect retreat to relax and escape from it all.
Remarks The gallery of the Ancestors of the Wittelsbachs and the function rooms are luxuriously decorated. The Antiquarium is the oldest part of the palace (1570), and has an impressive vault with frescos and a number of antique busts. The porcelain rooms and the chamber of Relics contain several masterpieces and jewels. Also see the silver rooms and the stone chambers covered in marble and magnificent stucco of the Imperial Room. The building suffered greatly during the Second World War but restoration lasted until 1980 and has returned the Residence to its former glory.
