Why guests love itA novelist on a research trip settled into Hotel Giraffe for a week, drawn by the NoMad location and the rooftop garden. Afternoons were spent writing up there among the plants, the surrounding rooftops and water towers for company, with the complimentary refreshments downstairs as a break. The 1920s and 1930s photographs in the room set the mood. The garden is quiet and small, ideal for a writer, less so for anyone wanting a social bar.
