Just around the corner from the Nikola Tesla Museum, is the Metropol Palace. It first opened in 1957 (previously known as Hotel Metropol), having been renovated in 2012, with 198 air-conditioned guest rooms and 38 suites. Now the hotel facilities include a bar lounge, restaurant – accommodating halal and kosher diets – and a gaming room. A highlight is the Limegrove Fitness & Spa Center with its stunning 25-metre artistically lit mosaic-style pool, sauna, jacuzzi, gym, relaxation area, steam bath, ice fountain and six treatment rooms. Book to stay here if you’d like a haven of tranquillity among the city action.
