We had a fantastic stay and dining experience here. The room was gorgeous. It was huge and super comfy with a large bed, nespresso station, and a large bathroom. I wish we had stayed longer. The food was exquisite. It was the best massaman curry we've had in years! Service throughout was exceptional.
