“The rooms here are a genuine surprise, each meticulously designed for comfort, particularly the beds which are consistently praised for their exceptional quality. Guests found the bathrooms modern and spotlessly clean, complemented by powerful showers and thoughtful toiletries. The real advantage, however, is the seamless integration with the bistro below, providing a superb dining experience and attentive service that makes you feel truly looked after.”
