A grand stay at a beautiful old hotel. Would go again
Pros:

A most beautifully restored grand old dame of a building. We had a room on floor 2 with a magnificent view. The style of the restoration is fantastic and the room was spotless and spacious. The bathroom was also huge and beautifully renovated.

Cons:

Nothing

Definitely not good value for the $288 per night cost.
Pros:

Location great. The receptionist was very helpful when she returned from assisting another customer. The staff, in general, were very helpful.

Cons:

Not enough staff to cope with the workload. The bedroom was quite small with a wardrobe, fridge and small table leaving very little space around the bed and the view from our bedroom window was of a galvanized iron roof.
