Exceptional hotel! A wonderfully comfy bed, great bathroom and toiletries. Very nice sized room, great location, and awesome terrace— just wished it had food service or drinks up there without having to call it up. The downside - breakfast was mediocre and all our cappuccinos were terrible. The service was really great. Overall, highly recommend this hotel!

Lovely spot, great service, good breakfast and a nice room. The rooftop bar was closed one night for an event and it was too windy the next night, so unfortunately didn’t experience it. Good location. The only thing we could comment on is that pillows are too fluffy - not for side sleepers. Would definitely return.

This was our first stay at the Loutrel and it exceeded our expectations. The lobby and bar area are beautiful. We enjoyed a full complementary breakfast with delicious bacon and eggs. They also had a happy hour on the rooftop. Great views. Our room was quiet and so comfortable. Great location. We will be back.
