The property includes an on-site restaurant called Julians, along with a “Q Wine Cellar” and a “Q Bistro Bar.” And while it’s a small hotel, all cuisine is available to guests around the clock, according to the property.

There’s also a spa, with customized treatments from massages to facials to manicures.

And it’s even possible to buy out the entire property for a large meeting or event.
