If you're looking for somewhere with atmosphere then this is the place to go. The flamenco dancers and Spanish singers really put on a show that leaves you exhausted just watching. And even if flamenco is not your thing, it's worth going along just to soak up the atmosphere while tucking into tapas and sipping a glass of sangria.

This former pump house was once responsible for pumping dry the largest dry dock of Europe. Today diners can savour French cuisine with a twist while admiring the interior with its impressive 7m (23 ft) pit of this very popular restaurant. The toilets even have the original heavy steel pump doors.

Fans of Heston Blumenthal will like this intimate restaurant for food that is 'art on a plate'.

Caramelised eel with fois gras is just one of the must-try specialties and the desserts will blow you away.

This is the latest trendy brasserie to open in the hip south of the city. Its all-white interior is cosy without being clinical with seating a mix of sofas, wooden chairs and even rocking chairs. A salad buffet bar serves lunches and you'll find tapas in the evenings.

This eclectic tearoom is inspired by French tea parlours, traditional British tea houses and classic Swedish furniture. The unique style is the creation of a famous Belgian actor who serves guests English cream teas and French macaroons.

Built in 1905, this stately house retains many of its original features with high stucco ceilings, stained glass, marble carvings, parquet flooring and decorative wood and ironwork. It's now converted into three spacious and light guest rooms alongside two studios and one apartment. The old town is just a 20-minute walk away.

Restyled as a boutique hotel, the Plaza offers 81 rooms, from classic to stylish to elegant. Situated near the Stadspark, it is only a few minutes from the commercial centre.

A B&B like no other, it may look like the nearby town houses, but inside tells a different story. The three suites are lavish, each having their own design theme-French, English and Scottish. Features include four-poster king beds, leopard skin carpets, tartan wallpaper and a remote-controlled fireplace!
