Lovely hotel. Disappointed that the WiFi didn’t work and I only received small compensation. It lost me business.

The hotel is very much a classic. The old world furniture was fantastic. My wife’s favorite part was the Jacuzzi bathtub. The sitting room was very nice and very comfortable for four people to have a conversation without noise or a TV i the sitting room.

Location was great- on a walkable strip with many other shops and restaurants. In a good and safe area. Historic nature of the facility was fun and enjoyed the look, including all the decorations and thoughtful knick knacks throughout. Would definitely stay again.

Unique property with history. We had a wonderful stay, with no problems. All rooms are different, ours was basic with jetted tub. Other's I saw were much more spacious, but no major issue with that, for a quick weekend stay. Every employee we had contact with was wonderful. Will stay again.

The quality of the hotel for being historic was beautiful! The city around it was so fitting. For having so many bars it felt safe and quiet.

We love the character in ambience of the entire hotel, and the bar downstairs is a hidden gem and a favorite every time we stay. We also love the great restaurants nearby, and particularly recommend the montage.
