“There's a certain theatrical flair at play here, a blend of Italian Renaissance revival and Edgar Allan Poe aesthetics that I found quite compelling; the rooms themselves are showcases, some with bold leopard prints and custom furnishings, echoing a distinctive approach to luxury. Blooms, the on-site bar, strikes a similar chord, channeling both Studio 54 and The Shining, creating a unique atmosphere. It's a detail-rich experience that clearly sets it apart.”
