First off we checked in for our honeymoon which was made aware prior to our arrival and upon arrival. And hotel staff never registered my husband which we didn't know would become an issue. When husband went outside to smoke a cigarette (cigarette ash tray outside was full all weekend) he was locked out from our room. Although the security guard vouched for him the hotel manager wouldn't allow him a room key. Instead made security wake me up to let him in the room. Security was the best staff all weekend. Our room cleaner didn't provide us toliet tissue we had to go downstairs to get it. We started off with hardly anything on the roll anyways. Also never received replacement cups for drinking water. Room was always between 70-73 degrees no matter how low we dropped the temperature (even kept drapes shut the entire time to block out the sun). Back door of the hotel going to the garage sticks and only opens halfway. Husband hurt his shoulder to get through one time he even had to forced the door open further- this didn't happen consistently. Mold on bathroom wall and rust on bathroom blinds. Trash on floor and in elevator. Certainly wasn't worth the price we paid will not be returning to a Hilton again.

I loved that it was an historic hotel and that Hilton very evidently cares about the legacy of the Seelbach — preserving whatever possible of the original hotel through the years is challenging work, but doing so nets so much credit among those who appreciate the history. From an elegant lobby, well-appointed rooms, and readily available and accessible historic spaces this hotel is the best place I’ve stayed in years.

Fun stay at the Seelbach!

Step back in time at this vintage well kept swanky hotel. The history was amazing! The staff was always nice and accommodating. The rooms were decent size. The bedding was soft and comfy. I enjoyed the turn down every day. We had to ask for small fridge for meds. There was daily coffee in the market place on ground floor. It’s easy walking distance to most downtown attractions. The restaurant breakfast brunch is just okay. The Restaurant Bar had excellent food and beverages and had a good crowd on the weekend.

Really nice hotel with lots of history. Exceptional staff. I highly recommend that you request a room with a normal bathroom. Ours was what they call “tiny.” We didn’t know that when we checked in. If you are 6’ or taller, you could not sit straight on the toilet without your knees pushed up to your chest. If you are a large person, there’s no way you could get in the shower.
