“The historic character of the building is palpable, lending a certain gravitas to a stay here, and the staff consistently make an impression with their attentive service. My exploration confirmed that the dining is a real draw, with an extensive menu that thoughtfully caters to various dietary needs, and the rooms, while accessible via stairs, are notably clean and quiet.
