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
