Having undergone a transformation in recent years, the hotel has bags of personality through its décor of opulent jewel colours, distinctive stripes and strong patterns, warm wood and sparkling glass, brass lights, lamps and artefacts. It has a slightly Art Deco retro vibe, which we love.
Staff are attentive and keen to please - the reception is manned 24 hours a day. The hotel has plenty of room for weddings, celebrations and other private functions.
