The whole experience from start to finish was 1st class. The staff were most welcoming and helpful.

Room size is exceptional and staff service is wonderful.

service, concierge and reception, i.e. the full staff, is exceptional.

Exceptional service and attention to detail. For example, offering to rustle up some food for us in the Brassiere after the kitchen had closed, due to our late arrival.

It is really a gem. perfect location, beautiful rooms, excellent service and delicious food options.
