Dark timber and gilt furnishings do nothing to detract from the spacious elegance of the suite, and the Northern artworks are the finishing touch that gives it such a unique character.

The Selandia Suite
This suite evokes the charms of a life aboard ship, with its teak floors and walls, navy striped cotton draperies and brass cornered tables.

The nautical theme is continued throughout, right down to the photographs, engravings and maps that take pride of place on the walls.

Rooms are exquisite and the art collection they house hark back to earlier days in the life of this flagship suite, which has played host to many Hollywood stars.
