Style

This beautifully renovated Victorian townhouse is styled with a pared-back Danish aesthetic, incorporating unique details and personalized accents - all designed by Freyja Ducker. The Scandi-inspired atmosphere features hand-selected elements, such as lighting, artwork, fabrics, and plants, that all contribute to a cosy Hygge vibe. As a result, this boutique retreat is the type of space that's difficult to leave once you've settled in.

Additionally, guests can take advantage of the personalized service offered by pre-ordering chilled beverages to be delivered directly to their rooms.
