Vintage hotels
A Smith Vintage property has the same boutique personality, stylish looks and unstuffy attitude that all our hotels share, but you're more likely to find Chippendale chairs and candelabra here than Philippe Starck fittings or mood lighting. Think British country manors, romantic French châteaux or Georgian townhouse bed and breakfasts, traditionally turned out and faithful to the building's original feel. No contemporary makeovers or designer facelifts, just classic good taste.
