Gorgeous Art Deco hotel worth staying at for the architectural design itself. La Notte restaurant was simply fabulous with delicious wines, cocktails and some of the best Italian cuisine I have had in my life - and I have been to Italy! Succulent tilapia with risotto and melt-in-your mouth navel pasta. 100% recommended!!
