I stayed in the newly built portion of the hotel. The staff were wonderful. The hotel is beautiful. The pool area is a sight to see. This was a solo travel and I felt safe.

Great location, amazing architectural history
A wonderful hotel, fabulous location, bristling with architectural history - a stunning building. On the room - there was no safe; bed too big for the room layout (a big bed is a good thing); the mattress was a bit "tired"; TV channels poor - needs DSTV ..... otherwise fabulous
