Old hotel, excellent staff/ service

No air conditioning, very firm mattresses, as can be expected in an older building there were not many plugs for recharging all our devices. Breakfast offered a good selection of options.

Wi-Fi did not work. Bar shut at 7 pm No allocated disabled parking and parking in short supply. Overpriced dinner. menu and no convenient local dining alternative,s. Hotels.com website states hotel has 2 pools indoor. And outdoor which is untrue. Access to restaurant requires use of stairs. This hotel is still stuck in the 19th century.

Nice hotel but odd experience with employees

Our stay was pleasant, although our room had strongly slanted ceilings. Unfortunately, the employees seemed very unhappy/annoyed to see guests: checkin and checkout were done by the most unenthusiastic employees I've seen in a hotel for a long time, and in the middle of my afternoon nap, a handyman (repairman?) appeared in our room using the master key. He claimed to need to fix a broken mirror, which was not the case. Later, another employee entered our room with the master key, seemingly not expecting it to be occupied.

Very attentive staff

This is a historic hotel which had been complete restored. It has wonderful architectural features such as parkay floors and Greek columns in the main dining room. The staff were very friendly and attentive to our needs. They have a wonderful Spa area with both a large steam room and a large sauna, plus a pool and fitness area as well as they offer massages!

Nice for being pampered

This is a beautiful art deco hotel in a very quiet neighborhood. The hotel is known for its spa treatments, that are of good quality. The hotel is frequented by older guests. The restaurant is good and has a quality wine menu.
