White and cream seem to be the colours of choice at this friendly 14-room hotel in a lovely mansion across the river and southwest of the centre. All rooms have big bathrooms and refrigerators; for extra privacy, there's an apartment with a separate entrance. The hotel also has its own restaurant, also done out in fresh, minimalist white.
