“What stands out about this hotel is the staff's exceptional service, as many have pointed out their attentiveness and knowledge. The Art Deco design and on-site theatre give the property a distinct character, setting it apart from typical accommodations. While the bistro may have occasional service lapses, the overall experience seems thoughtfully curated, especially the well-regarded breakfast.”
