Description
Stepping inside the newly refurbished hotel, the lobby opens up to an enchanting oasis with a domed atrium roof, fresh flowers and is richly furnished with the finest natural materials.
First opened in 1886, the classic Belle époque architecture of the hotel has been preserved with the addition of modern touches making it cosmopolitan and elegant. The rooms also reflect this style with draped Pierre Fres Linens and large bathrooms of solid woods, marble, slate, oversized bathtubs and jet massage showers.
