You are literally staying in a Museum, so there aren't very many common areas to lounge in, and there isn't a restaurant (other than the little one at the top of the building where breakfast is served). The room we stayed in (Greta Garbo), was spacious, comfortable and had a simple beauty. (Except for the terrace, which was stunning). The hotel is also high above the town, so the views are spectacular, but there are a lot of stairs down into the town, and coming back up is a long haul). If you are looking for private, quiet elegance, without a ton of people or a busy hotel, then this is the place for you.
