Felt extremely spoilt in this...

Liked: Interior designer did a fantastic elegant job. Stunning colours and a stunning hotel. Rooms were very comfortable and good size and location was very central for us with many cafes nearby.
Disliked: Perhaps a few hooks in the bathroom for hanging towels would have been handy. And some hooks in the room too to hang out coats
