Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
The Zetter Townhouse is an oasis of historical luxury and individual quirkiness in a part of town otherwise devoted to corporate business. With its beautiful 18th-Century structure, its furnishings both enchant and are comfortable. The staff is polite and accommodating, and we enjoyed the entire week we spent there. The New Year’s Eve celebration was a special highlight. We thank everyone who made us welcome!
