A great long weekend stay for a family wedding. The on- site bar and cafe are wonderfully charming, and the staff really attentive and helpful overall.

We celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary and from the time we checked in until the time we left we were treated like royalty. The entire staff throughout the entire hotel celebrated with us. They even sent chocolate covered strawberries and had a bottle of chilled champagne upon our return from dinner. We will definitely be a frequent guest here for all our celebrations

We really enjoyed staying here. It's a lovely, comfortable hotel and so near Crown Center. I appreciated the complimentary coffee every morning, but I still think it lacks a casual restaurant that could be used for breakfast. Perhaps its close proximity the Crown Center makes it hard to keep another full restaurant available??

Nice location and great architecture in the area. Close to restaurants and shopping. Would stay again but dislike that parking is paid to park in hotel car park. - Off street parking is available and plenty close by for free in evening hours. Would 100% stay again.
