Very convenient and unique place to stay while in Amana. Very clean, spacious rooms with comfortable beds. Only downside is that it can be noisy in the rooms. Original room (103) was conveniently located by an outside door, but had to ask to be moved because we could hear everything being said in the room next door. This room is near the event area also and I was told it can get very loud if there is a wedding, etc. Thankfully hotel wasn't full, and staff was very accommodating, so got moved to another room that was better. Old historic building with many original items from the woolen mill. No continental breakfast, but great food at the restaurant in the hotel and good bakery and other restaurants in town. Would definitely stay here again.

I really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Millwright. The staff were friendly and very welcoming. The hotel is beautiful and displays memorabilia throughout. The A/C in my room worked well and was very quiet! Very little outside noise (including thunderstorms) could be heard in my room, although I was able to hear noisy neighbors in the hallway and slamming doors. There are elevators to get to the 2nd floor, even though one site stated there were none. I liked I could store food and drinks in the mini refrigerator in my room and heat up leftovers in the microwave. The shower was a spa experience! It is in walking distance of great restaurants and Amana shopping. I highly recommend Hotel Millwright and would definitely stay there again.

Spacious room. Friendly staff. Unique building. Right next to everything in Amana. We had a room on the first floor, and it was noisy as there was nothing on the concrete floor to absorb the sound.
