The Room was exquisite. Towels were fluffy and clean.
Comfortable beds and pillows. We had a lovely time. The restaurant was great. The food was a culinary treat. Would definitely stay again.
A great new hotel for those visiting UVA. While not in the heart of the Corner, it’s still close to Grounds. The Perch, the rooftop bar, was by far our favorite!
New hotel with a soft opening. Working through initial matters. Well designed. Poplar restaurant was outstanding…great food and service. Highly recommended.

Elevators not in working order. Had to use service elevator to get around. Parking situation not great
The hotel was beautiful and almost sanitary in cleanliness and the staff was almost too polite. The issues I had were more about things that were lacking. There was no microwave anywhere in the hotel, no trash cans anywhere in any public space to dispose of waste, no coffee available in the lobby, no soda available for purchase at the lobby, a cafe that was closed most of the day, and a menu at the restaurant that was horribly lacking of variety. It was very obvious that the hotel used to be student housing.
