Wonderful stay at the Carrington.

Wonderful stay at Carrington Hotel, regrettable only for 1 night. A special treat for myself and granddaughter. I came in late 1990's and it was almost derelict - wonderful to see it restored to it's former glory. Everything was perfect, ambience of public areas also made it memorable. Highly recommend a stay here, you won't regret it.
