"Each of them is dark, theatrically gothic and lavishly furnished with antiques, leather and velvet, Victorian baths and grand beds, complementing the magical atmosphere at the Witchery dining rooms." Full review

"Essentially a restaurant ... with some suites attached, there are few communal spaces -- the hotel is a favorite among those seeking seclusion." Full review
