""Bake Off meets Downton Abbey for preschoolers’ — The Times
A stunning, nostalgic picture book about a beautiful hotel and the people who stay, live and work there.
Perfect for children 4+.
If you ever go to the great city of Delaunay, take a left at the Duchess’s palace and cross the Bridge of Spires, and here you will find The Incredible Hotel. Everything runs like clockwork, thanks to Stefan the kitchen porter, who brews the coffee every morning, and dreams of being a chef. Until the morning of the Grand Ball, when a fire starts in the kitchen just as the Duchess of Delaunay arrives… can Stefan save the day?
With a style that evokes Wes Anderson-esque imaginary worlds, this is a timeless tale to read again and again from the award winning illustrator of ‘JOY’. Each time you read it you will notice new details – look out for the cat and mouse hiding on every page, who have their own little story to tell!

A lovely, unique story with a touch of humour and a warm ending. The best thing about it is by far the beautifully detailed and engaging illustrations which really draw you in.

I really liked this book because at first the chef was very mean to Stefan but then he did very well so she was nice to him.
