"Arguably the classiest hotel in town, family-owned and with swish public areas that ooze an easy comfort – all pastel shades, flowers, and even some Munch paintings."
Star Service "This grande dame holds the kind of sophisticated style that attracts a more loosely wound bloodline of landed gentry." Full review
