The Wentworth Mansion was an absolutely amazing hotel. The staff is so friendly and cannot do enough to make you feel special. The hotel thinks of everything that travelers always appreciate. Free bottles of water by the back door, chocolates on the pillows at night, turn down service, free breakfast, free cocktails and appetizers. They also have Brigerton music playing throughout the mansion. It was a very special trip and I can’t wait to go back.

Nice historic hotel
If you like historic facilities, this is the place for you. Service was top notch. Took us a couple of hours to get the room warm. Drafty, slow to heat. Bathroom was up 5 steep stairs, and our bath ceiling was about 6’ high. Beautiful small “library” common rooms to enjoy a book and a glass of wine. Circa 1886 was excellent. Breakfast was the best part! This is in a walking neighborhood, but there are no shops or other restaurants.

Nice but better options available.
Beautiful old mansion stay. Our room was large and offered a sitting area with fireplace. We were able to get a nice sit down breakfast with several options. The price seems steep to me and I wouldn't stay again as it was several blocks from King St. and I feel there are better options at the same price or less on King St. Nice once but wouldn't do again.

Truly as good as the reviews I read. Lovely, well maintained elegant property. They upgraded us to a larger room when we checked in and it was a huge suite - we felt quite royal. Bathroom is also huge and wonderful. Staff couldn't be nicer. And, the best part is the lovely people you'll meet at the social hour each evening. That's such a nice addition to any trip.
