The lobby and public spaces are worth exploring before heading directly upstairs. Seeing the design, dining areas, and guest spaces helped us understand how the property works as a destination. Arrive with enough daylight to see the public areas before settling in. That small choice gives a fuller picture of the property. The design details are not limited to one dramatic feature. Artwork, seating arrangements, windows, and room layouts all contribute to the experience. Looking around slowly also helps with practical decisions, such as where to meet someone, where to work for a few minutes, or which spaces feel best for relaxing before dinner.
