The magnificent restaurant with it's Victorian Grand fire place and plaster designs, has been updated and furnished using designer lamps, chairs and fabrics, and mixes traditional Victorian matt colours with bright, contemporary reds. It serves traditional English cuisine 'with a twist', by the famous chef Robert Lyons. There is also a drawing room which is sumptuously decorated and is famous for its impressive afternoon tea.
roomsAll the bedrooms have been designed to provide comfort and tranquility. The rooms have just been totally refurbished using much of the original antique mahogany furniture mixed with contemporary/designer lamps, beds and flat screen televisions, retaining much of the Edwardian grandeur of the hotel, but creating a contemporary atmosphere. Luxurious fabrics have been used for curtains and bedspreads. New colours have been introduced to the rooms; some follow a brown scheme, some a grey/silver scheme and some a more feminine apple green scheme. For a bit of history, book room 118, where Oscar Wilde was arrested in 1835 and where his smoking jacket still hangs in the wardrobe. The Edward VII suite, is the room where King Edward VII would meet his mistress, famous actress Lillie Langtrie.
