“Here's my take: this is an especially comfortable choice if you want a quiet, secure base in the city, near embassies and transport. The personalized service stands out, and the rooms are designed with a modern romantic sensibility. I think it's a particularly good fit for couples who prefer intimacy to grandiosity.”
