Fodor's Review:

Ori Kafri, the manager of this boutique hotel, refers to it as a house, and indeed it is a sumptuously appointed home away from home. A library serves as the reception room; buffet breakfast is laid out on a gleaming chestnut table in an interior atrium. Soothing earth tones prevail in the rooms, some of which have chandeliers, others canopied beds. A secluded rooftop terrace makes a perfect setting for an aperitivo, as do the ground-floor sitting rooms with large, pillow-piled couches. The Lounge restaurant ($$$-$$$$) offers Tuscan classics with a dash of fantasy. A stellar staff caters to every need.

We loved this place

Posted by juliebudd from St. Simons Island, Ga. on 9/28/07
We had a Superior double room and it was too small. Very nice but small. Book at least a deluxe double! The manager at this hotel is very nice! It is hard to find so get specific directions of which street to turn in on.
