Michelin Guide "Urbane and very British... with an illustrious past."
Concierge "Reopened in December 2005 after a $30 million–plus overhaul, its future is now as bright as its past."
Fodor's "Tongues wag, however, that even though it's one of the priciest of hotels, neither the interiors nor the service really add up the way they used to." Full review
