“This hotel strikes me as a place where Georgian elegance meets modern wellness, particularly with its novel Sound Wellness Room. I appreciate the thoughtful touches, like the Strathberry bag library and the emphasis on local experiences, setting it apart from standard luxury stays. Dining at BABA and Aizle, along with the pet-friendly policies, makes it feel both sophisticated and accessible.”
