“The dedication to creating a distinct experience is evident, particularly in the thoughtfully appointed rooms and the standout 24-hour diner, a clever nod to a bygone era that frankly makes early mornings or late arrivals remarkably simple. It strikes me as a place where passion for detail, from the décor to the hospitality of the hosts, truly shapes the stay, especially for those with an appreciation for motoring heritage.”
