Fodor's Expert Review St George's Hotel

This luxury seafront hotel has welcomed many illustrious guests since it opened in 1854, including Napoleon III and seven British prime ministers. Although original features remain, the decor is contemporary. The most prized rooms are the five Rooftop Rooms, which have the best views and their own balconies. Traditional British cuisine made with local produce is served in the chic restaurant and afternoon tea is available in the comfortable lounge.
