1920s Inspired Decor
The hotel features a Roaring Twenties theme with cobalt blue and turquoise velvet armchairs, Art Deco chandeliers, leather sofas, and antique gramophones. Patterned green wallpaper, dark wooden desks, and hanging light bulbs create a masculine interior design. Background jazz music and amber scent complete the 1920s French Riviera atmosphere inspired by F. Scott Fitzgerald's time in the region.
