Staff is great and nice having a restaurant on site. The rooms need some help. Part of the problem may be the lightbulbs as they give off a cold, institution feel; the mattress and bedding are just “ok.”

Overall a very nice no frills stay. Parking was available right at the hotel. Our room was just a little beat up. It had several cosmetic issues. There weren't really any extras with the stay, but we didn't need much other than a place to sleep. Our view happened to be directly into another room, so that wasn't really the ideal.

My daughter and I were in town for a fishing charter and had a wonderful stay at the Ariel. The hotel staff was very friendly and the food we had at the restaurant was really good as well. Our room was much bigger than I was expecting and the hotel had a very “grand” atmosphere when we walked in…chandelier lighting, very spacious etc. The location couldn’t have been any better for us as our charter destination was only minutes away but seemed to be within a few minutes walk from a lot of different places (restaurants, shopping etc.) I already told my wife if we ever make it back as a family we’re definitely staying here again!

Historic hotel in a convenient location. They have updated the rooms, but limit how cool the air conditioner can go. Worked for our purpose, but we wouldn’t stay here again.
