Great stay! Room was very clean with a little patio outside which was lovely to sit in with a cup of coffee in the morning. The hotel was within walking distance to downtown with tons of restaurants and of course the springs. Highly recommend!

Very disappointed
It’s quite an expensive place. Was closed for a while but then got a new owner. But inside it looks like nothing has changed for 20 years or more. No Aircondition and on my arrival day the room was stinking hot. Christmas morning and the staff did not even wish us Merry Christmas. Breakfast was the same as the day after. All cheap/ from frozen produce And staff had limited English and some just rude

Beautiful area but the family room was NOT a family room king size bed and fold out couch with minimal space for a family. Would definitely stay again as just a couple or when kids are older to have 2 rooms but not one family in one room and we only had us plus our 4 year old definitely wasn't idea for 3 so 4 would be a stretch

Nice old hotel
Lovely old hotel. When we arrived the front of the building had scaffolding all over. When we got to our room it was at the front and you could not access the outside area. My husband ask to change room and they gave us a garden apartment.

Loved this historic hotel. The photographs throughout the hotel and beautiful grounds showed the history wonderfully. The staff was very welcoming and pleasant. We found the beds to be incredibly comfortable. Only two small suggestions. The complementary breakfast was nice, but there wasn’t much to it. Some eggs and a breakfast meat addition would be nice. If you wanted to promote it as complimentary and not loose money, maybe up the hotel nightly price by $10 - $20. Last suggestion, we had room 231, which was a lovely room but it overlooked the outer staircase which had a bright outdoor light and clear view of the staircase. If the window was open and curtain closed partially it did nothing to block either due to the direction that it opened, right to left. If it had been built to open left to right, light and privacy problem would have been solved.
