"Sleek yet low-key, the smallish rooms at this historic 1923 property have a contemporary decor done in all-grey."
Travel + Leisure

"The decor is modern, and I use "modern" in the best of senses -- sleek, uncluttered interiors that seek simplicity but avoid the "lab" look, which always leaves me with a chill."
