Penthouse Suite - Graham Viney's theme of soft hues and silky luxurious fabrics is continued in the suite; using white, cream and grey as the main colours, which take their cue from the hand painted panels of framed scenic wallpaper.  The 1930’s light fittings have exquisite baccarat crystal drops and the desk is the original Louis-style desk from the hotel’s lounge when it first opened in 1899. Mercury glass bedside lamps and a Venetian mirror complete the romantic and decadently lavish interior.
