Courtyard of the imperator
by sourbuggerThe odd cosmetic enhancement here and there (cable tv and jets in the baths) cannot hide the fact that she is slightly past her prime.
Despite this, there is many a good tune played on an old fiddle and a stay here will be very pleasent.
The courtyard is beautiful, and the Bar Hemmingway reminds you of a conquest she had earlier in her life (he stayed here)
and the antique lift still works, even if it takes some coaxing.
Try to get a room facing onto the courtyard - opening the shutters onto it in the morning and allowing the sunlight to stream through make a great start to the day - but skip the expensive breakfast.
The website is also worth a visit with an extrememly impressive 360 degrees view of the lobby area.
