We loved our stay at Sessions. The rooms and all facilities were exceptionally clean. The staff was very helpful, especially Venetia. The amenities were great, we especially loved being able to play in the snow on the back of the property, since we have very young children it was very convenient. Just be aware that the building is older and so not as quiet as a normal hotel would be, although that wasn’t too much of a problem for us. Great location, definitely worth the price.

If was an OK hotel. The room was pretty small for 4 people. We were also disappointed because the play room with the arcades and games was not available for us to use because they allowed someone else to buy the whole play room, and I booked this hotel because of the playroom as I wanted to entertain my kids. I wish there was a fire place too

Gorgeous amenities, the nicest staff, beautiful space and location. Well appointed room . Only issue is we had a very uncomfortable bed. Neither of us could sleep. We also had lights come on in the middle of the night.
