Do historic hotels in Soho have modern facilities?
Hotel interiors feature the modern conveniences and safety features you might expect, but every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades. Private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, heating and air conditioning, free and fast Internet, and the normal amenities found in any hotel will be available in a historic hotel.
