The design and décor of all six residences were conceptualized by Red Carnation Hotels’ design team, headed by the collection’s founder and president, Beatrice Tollman, along with her daughter Toni Tollman. No two rooms in either the hotel or the residences are the same, and every design detail has carefully combined the rich history of the building and the needs of the discerning modern traveler. Guests can expect deep hand-woven carpets, exquisite fabrics, antique or custom-made furnishings, hand-crafted chandeliers, polished brass tables and Savoir beds, with rare artworks and vintage mirrors on the walls.
