Scene
Intimate, elegant space inside a residential building
Spread out over the fifth, sixth, and seventh floors of a brick residential building, and with only 60 rooms, L'Hermitage has an elegant, intimate feel. Fresh flowers on a marble table, a black-and-white geometric patterned marble floor, and a bold red ceiling fixture create a flourish of style in the lobby. Tall parlor chairs and ornate patterned wallpaper add an elegant touch as well. There’s also a green tile saltwater lap pool with matching hot tub and a stone terrace surrounded by bushes and trees with views of tall city buildings.
