Wonderful place to stay, a little pricey, but likely worth it for the extra comfort.
Pros:

Rooms were beautiful, with plenty of clothing storage. Bathrooms were recently updated and are quite modern. You have to reserve a table for breakfast at their resident restaurant, which requires paying out of pocket, which we did not do. We really appreciated being able to leave our luggage in the luggage room both before/after check out/in as we came/left on the train at odd hours.
