Top The Fountain Hotel Reviews

The Western Hotel

The Woodquay Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Self checking process. Room was over all clean. We did clean the fan before turning it on. It is in a quieter place in town and allowed us to sleep even with the windows open. This was very needed after the last hotel. Walking distance to the square. Staff was responsive and communicated before and during our trip if we had any questions. We would stay again."

The Galmont

8/10 Good

"Room was nice and tidy. Had an issue with the shower head. It kept moving and spraying all over. Soaked the floor. There were some signs of mold in the grout, but overall good for one night. Breakfast was quite good with lots of choices."

The Lane - Boutique Residence

8/10 Good

"Parking and finding this hotel is difficult. You have to go down an alley to find the door to the hotel. There is not any automobile access to drop off your luggage. I had to call the hotel and ask for help finding the hotel and they weren’t very helpful. The room was clean. There was not a door lock inside of the room. The small refrigerator in the room was so small we couldn’t get anything in it. The shelves are about three inches wide and you can’t put anything in the door. The location was within walking distance to restaurants."
