The rooms are spacious but the property is very dated. The food isn’t great. The staff are nice and the location is not centrally located. The lounge is closed on Sundays which is inconvenient.

Every aspect of the unit was above average. However, the beds are far too high for a short disabled person, I had to use a chair to get on the bed.

This place exceeded our expectations. Was spotless and the breakfast in the morning was top notch. The staff were beyond accommodating and friendly. Very customer service oriented which is rare. We did not see a single staff member on their phone. Also extremely rare. We will definitely be back :)

Beautiful hotel, comfortable and well situated on the river pathway so can walk everywhere! The staff are welcoming and gracious. The suites have every possible luxury including top end espresso makers, bathrobes, soft sheets, comfortable beds, L’Occitane bath products, and very comfortable beds. We had a balcony and river view. And the breakfast which is included, is delicious with a chef to prepare your eggs to order! One of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed in!

The hotel is looking a bit worn. No dining options on Sundays and during this visit, nothing on the Monday either as it was a long weekend - seems ridiculous if they are open for business and charging premium prices to stay here
