This grand old hotel has been restored to fairly modern standards while maintaining the unique, interesting and historical style of early 20th century society. It was a great privilege to stay here and I will gladly visit again if circumstances allow.

Beautiful hotel with a lot of history. I stayed in a room with the bathroom down the hall. I was surprised to find I still had my own bathroom, with a locked door, in what I would call a suite of bathrooms. The staff was exceptionally welcoming and helpful.

The ac did not keep the room cool, kind of warm though out the stay. It was difficult getting up and down the steps with my luggage, and I did use the lift. Staff, food, wine, and location were outstanding!
