Went with the kids, amazing staff, historic hotel, very clean and great food. Valet service is great around the clock with armed security 24/7. Not luxurious but worth the historic aspect of it. Very close to the cathedral, just a 5 minute walk. Safe area.

This beautiful historic hotel has very clean & decent size room, although not large, and I was traveling solo. The staff was amazing and very responsive. I only ate at the hotel once. The mushroom fettuccine was excellent, but I prefer eating in area eateries. The area is very walkable, with many restaurants, shops, and historical sites very all within a mile. I took a few Ubers to the farther away spots. The most expensive was 169mx and that was to the airport in the middle of the night. I highly recommend this one of a kind hotel
