The Rookery Review

An absolutely unique and beautiful 1725 town house, the Rookery is the kind of place where you want to allow quality time to enjoy and soak up the atmosphere. Huge, wood-paneled bedrooms have heavy raw silk drapes, antique furniture, artfully scattered antiquarian books, and white marble bathrooms with deep claw-foot tubs big enough for two. The elegant, Regency-style drawing room has a well-stocked honesty bar, and the conservatory, with its small patio garden, is another relaxing place to unwind. There's no restaurant, but room service is good-quality and reasonably priced. Breakfast, served in your room, features a large basket of freshly baked breads and pastries, juices and yogurts.
