A sumptuous restored art deco pile in a central but quiet location, up to ���300 for a double room.

A 1920's style 5 star hotel. Whilst not a super modern, plush place, it has maintained a certain old world charm and has quite possible the most gorgeous bedrooms I've stayed in yet. We went on my wife's birthday last year and the day we arrived there was a bottle of champagne for her and on the actual day of her birthday they gave us the most exquisite cake imaginable. And they're very friendly!
