Hotel LeVeque, Autograph Collection
The hotel is an elegant location, on point with design and guest amenities, including music of the golden era. We were enthralled with the room, celestial sky over our bed, restaurant, bar with speakeasy gas lights, warm welcome from staff and ease of everything.
