Try Fuji NPS (160) for shooting interiors with mixed light. I've not
tried Kodak Royal Gold RZ-25, but it's predecessor, Ektar 25, was a fine
grain champ.

I don't recall if this came up before, but color neg film gains grain
with overexposure, so you may want to err on the side of underexposure
and take advantage of the exposure latitude of negative films.
