Loved this place! Quiet, classy, lovely! The front desk staff, doorman and bartender were all so friendly and helpful. We felt at home immediately. Rooms are impeccable- so clean and beautifully decorated (as is the entire hotel)! Lovely little perks: little chocolate cakes in our room, welcome drink vouchers for the bar. Would definitely recommend The Allure and hope to return someday.
