Recognised within the prestigious MICHELIN Guide hotel selection, awarded the internationally audited Green Key eco-label certification for operational sustainability, and affiliated with Design Hotels under the global Marriott Bonvoy umbrella, the property combines independent design pedigree with global commercial power.
