Revisited for the first time since I was kid 30 years ago. What a beautiful renovation! The grounds of the Elms were so relaxing and serene; the highlight of our stay was a late night walk under the LED torch-lit path, surrounded by lush hostas, ferns and moss-carpeted trees. We laid in a hammock between two trees, gazing at the stars with the ambience of nature providing the soundtrack. SO romantic. In the morning, we returned to this area for group yoga under the gazebo, which was heavenly. Inside, we loved how bustling the entertainment was, from the live music coming out of the lounge to the super fun paranormal tour with our superbly entertaining guide, Jay! The facilities are slickly updated but honor the history of the building with class and nuance. The underground lap pool was so cool and unique! In our room, I especially appreciated how roomy and contemporary the bathroom and shower were. The immediate area around The Elms is a mix of charming small town Main Street vibes and old houses in various states of disrepair, but it doesn’t sour the charm and elegance of The Elms whatsoever. It’s a diamond in the rough. I highly recommend a visit if you haven’t been in a while!

The Elms is a beautiful, historic hotel that has been modernized in ways that maintain its character. My room was clean & well appointed (note the “closet” was tiny). I had a breakfast & a dinner at Three Owls. Both were delicious & service was very good. I really enjoyed the pool - plenty of loungers (midweek) in both sun & shade. The pool bar has a good selection of drinks & bar food. I had a relaxing hydrafacial in the Spa. Only disappointment was that the Grotto was closed for repair. Although they knew about this days ahead of my trip, I received no notice. I would have postponed my trip as this was something I wanted to try. I asked for some consideration (Grotto charge is $75/two hours) and they applied a $50 credit to my bill. Overall, I would definitely stay here again —- but would call ahead to confirm amenities.
