New favorite hotel!
My new favorite Old Town hotel! This property is stunning, well-staffed, and located in the middle of everything. I was disappointed that the rooftop deck wasn't open as promised, but even the view out the door was nice.

Great hotel and location but stinky lobby
The hotel is in a great location and was quiet. However, there was a fowl odor in the lobby and it flowed into their restaurant too. That alone is a huge turn off. In addition, the deadbolt for our room did not line up. So, they need to fix these things asap in my opinion.

Wonderful
Adorable boutique hotel. Everything was wonderful including the valet service, staff and the room. The only complaint is that I booked a Deluxe King room that said “city views.” I chose the deluxe room at a higher cost for that reason. I asked the desk clerk and he very nicely explained they do not have city views. He also said I am the second person that questioned the description and that he would talk to the manager to fix the description on Hotels.com

This is my first time here at Hotel Heron. I was able to check in early and the young lady at the desk was extremely helpful and friendly. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the building and knows her customer service. A big thank you to her! The room was comfortable and quiet. The king size bed was so comfortable it was hard to get up in the morning. I went to the rooftop Terrace in the evening to look at the full moon and enjoy the warmth of the fire pits.

The hotel is in a perfect area to do all things Old Town related. The staff was wonderful. Rooms are a little small, but not bad. Our biggest problem was that the bathroom door was see thru and they had a huge mirror that angled directly from the bed into the bathroom door. Anyone using the bathroom was completely visible to anyone else in the room no matter where they were.

The room was close to the roof I’m assuming so every night we heard the party up there which wasn’t too bad because it ended at a decent time but still a little loud. The area is great it is a perfect location. The food at the restaurant was great and the room itself was pleasant. Wish the water pressure was a bit stronger but it was very clean and well managed. I’d recommend this to friends for sure!
