Rooms

The rooms vary considerably in size and shape due to the historic nature of the building. Most are small to medium sized, but some of the suites are very large. Many of the rooms on the top floor have cosy sloping ceilings and little dormer windows give views out over the rooftops of this wonderful area, steeped in history. The decor is a delightful mix between classic old-fashioned furniture and gorgeous high quality soft furnishings and more modern amenities, espcially in the smart, stylish bathrooms. As would be expected in this, one of the best hotels in town, both the rooms and the bathrooms are in exceptional condition. Interestingly, some of the rooms have windows overlooking the beautiful atrium lobby, rather than to the outside.

Restaurant

The hotel has a cosy little a la carte restaurant just off the lobby and breakfast is served here too. Like the rest of the hotel, the surroundings are strictly classical!

Exterior

This beautiful historical town house was built by the church more than five hundred years ago, but was converted to its present use less than ten years ago. It has a beautifully restored facade.

Lobby

The atrium style lobby is absolutely gorgeous, with comfortable seating for guests to enjoy a coffee, read the paper, or simply soak up the history around them.
