It is very rare to find a thorough-bred boutique hotel in the historic quarter of any old town in Europe, let alone it coming packed with luxury elements and fittings. But Duke Hotel defies all that norm, and surprised us completely and in fact, blew our minds with its characterful charm! While the common areas were funky enough, the Suite we were in took the luxury boutique vibe to a whole new level. Fluffy robes and slippers, Duke organic toiletries, a Roberts speaker, Bio Numi Tea, Illy Espresso machines, Huge Smart TVs, Hipster vintage/retro decor, furniture, and decor by cutting-edge designers. The list goes on and on! But the highlight of our stay was the million-dollar view of the iconic church and the old town from huge windows that spanned across the living room! Truly magical. LOCATION: Excellent location in the heart of Old Quarter and a stone’s throw away from the main cathedral and town square. DINE + DRINK: while there isn’t a dedicated restaurant on site, the street below is filled with excellent restaurants and cafes. ROOM: We stayed in Room 310, which was the DUKE SUITE, so this review is based on that; SIZE: It was a humungous suite that came with a huge Living room that was fully decked up like a luxurious New York loft apartment, and a lovely big bedroom.; VIEW: Spectacular views of the old town and cathedral from the lovely window sill seating area!; AIR-CON: Perfectly functioning cooler that helped in setting the perfect room temperature; BED: Comfortable bed that played the expected part of putting us to sleep; BATHROOM: Super stylish Stand-in shower and uber cool vintage retro sanitary ware.; TOILETRIES: Lovely luxury organic toiletries. FACILITIES: Another big highlight of the stay was the Mind-blowing TRUE HEALTH Gym that was attached to the hotel (that you get access to for free as a hotel guest!) The gym was fully loaded and was wonderful. SERVICE: Friendly staff that took care of all our needs with a smile and made us feel pampered and well taken care of. Special Shout-out to the front office staff for a warm welcome experience and friendly hospitality HOW WIRED YOU WILL BE: Free Wi-Fi that works well all over the property, and the speed is good! Big Smart TV dishing out a wide variety of channels spanning sports, news, music, movies, and entertainment in multiple languages, in both the living room and bedroom
