The hotel channels local botanical history into a warm Old Town residence, where leafy corners and herbal gin drinks set the daily pace.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
