Gramophones and antiques set the nostalgic tone of this one-of-a-kind hotel. Rooms feature a tasteful mix of original art, dangling clocks, fleur-de-lis patterns and allusive murals. Walk-in showers and the rooftop Jacuzzi and sauna beckon to decadent weekenders, but it's the vintage feel of this 1942-built property (and appropriately genteel service) that lifts it above the competition.
Situated 800m southwest of Carmel Centre. There is a tiny free car park; otherwise, metered parking is common on nearby streets.
