From the outside, JAG Boutique Hotel looks like any other hotel. But step inside and you鈥檙e met with sleek, modern interiors with a rock 鈥榥鈥� roll twist. The owner is a huge fan of music and has painstakingly collected original artwork, signatures and memorabilia related to bands and musicians such as the Rolling Stones, David Bowie and Bob Marley. This is tastefully displayed on the walls of the restaurant, lobby, rooms and suites, as well as the corridors (where classic rock music is softly played in the background).
The 84 rooms have a fresh, contemporary style and cover several categories to suit a range of guests. While the property鈥檚 restaurant, Exile, serves some of the best food in St John鈥檚, you鈥檙e also just a few minutes鈥� walk from the town鈥檚 many restaurants and bars should you wish to venture further afield.聽
OUR OPINION:
While unassuming from the outside, we love the modern interiors of this boutique hotel, including its collection of music-themed original artwork which gives the property personality. Staff are exceptionally friendly, and the restaurant is one of the best in town.
