"A refurbished town house in the city center, this...boutique hotel opened in March 2006. ... Each of the 18 rooms reflects a different city's vibe and aesthetic."

In the same building are an assortment of cafes, bars, and a nightclub...light sleepers should book rooms on the third floor to avoid the din.

Choose from the chic Art Deco brasserie Hadrian’s — designed by Olga Polizzi — or the refined Michelin-starred Number One. Book ahead for a corner banquette and a tasting menu experience amid reimagined Edwardian sophistication.
