Staff was incredibly friendly and professional. We had a slight issue with our room on the first night, and the staff worked to address it the best they could within the constraints of a fully booked hotel for the night. Outside courtyard area is delightful to relax in. Breakfast was just ok, but free so nothing to complain about. Overall, we had a great stay and would come back again!

Courtyard … saved us in the pouring rain. Food was so-so but we had bumped into a wedding that put a strain on things. We were a family party of 10. Satisfied. A room temp issue was rectified by immediately changing our room and giving us a token credit. Appreciated but not requested.

What a beautiful and historic hotel. A luxury time machine. This hotel is very old and has some character because of this. So not everything works perfect but absolutely gorgeous and we will definitely be back.
