“This landmark hotel, built in 1898 to serve the railway bringing visitors to the resort 'where the mountains of Morne sweep down to the sea' has been given a £15 million refurb involving redecorated bedrooms as well as a state of the art Espa spa and pool complex, with 60 stylish 'resort rooms' above. All well and good, except that the makeover of the existing ground floor stops at the glamourous lobby, inducing the odd feeling of being in two quite different places, one cool and new, the other fusty and old, with indifferent food.”
