The hotel is pure luxury. The location is excellent just across from the cathedral. It is a beautiful building. The lobby is quiet elegance. The staff are professional and friendly. The food at the breakfast buffet is very good. The bed is very comfortable. I had a junior suite with window/doors opening toward the Dom. No bathtub.
