If you know the Red Carnation hotel group then you will recognise this as a member immediately as it has Bea Tollman's trademark fabric wallcoverings throughout and her eccentric choice of colour (green and white striped tablecloths in the brasserie). Period features include a stunning Regency room with crystal chandeliers.
From the cheery welcome from the doorman as you walk up the steps, to the local anecdotes recounted by the barman, you can expect friendly five-star service here. Facilities include an outdoor terrace for dining on a fine day, a seasonally heated pool and an indoor gym, pool and small spa.
