It’s a great location. And a nice hotel, but it needs better servicing of rooms. And better lighting in rooms. Love a great mood lighting situation, but when you feel like every corner has misplaced items, it’s annoying.

Great stay with our pooch

We had a great stay at the South Congress hotel. We brought our dog & they had us in a room with a patio which was great for our pooch. The room was a little worn but it was a suite that they put us in as an upgrade from a regular room. We would definitely come back & stay again!

Liked: Staff & service
The property was great but the valet gave me a flat tire and refused to do anything about it, they simply told me to talk to my insurance… very shocked at this lack of customer service. They still made me pay for my valet! Very disappointed and shocked from a “luxury” hotel.
