We stayed at the Tavistock in 1998 and were delighted to find it even more comfortable. The staff is great, the facility is great, the restaurant and bar are wonderful. I have a gluten allergy and the chef came out to speak with me about it as I ordered dinner. Great service! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
