My Sweetie and I came down a week ago to celebrate our birthdays. We just wanted to be low key, lazy and enjoy each other. The location was quiet and so beautiful by the river. Everything was in walking distance and there were ample restaurants to choose from. Dope spot and will definitely return.

Room was clean and prepared. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Hotel sits on a beautiful property along the Chattahoochee river, with astonishing views and a short walk away from the shops around beautiful Helen.

Overall the stay was very nice. Rooms were clean and the staff were friendly. If I had anything to offer some advice on it would be this, when you give the guest a frozen bfast sandwich/burrito you might want to actually tell them how long they need to cook it for in the microwave. I got mine and the writing on the packaging was so small it was almost impossible to read. Needless to say it was not edible afterwards and I just settled for some grits and a muffin.

Front desk staffs: very polite and helpful Room: it must have been recently remodeled. Look new, clean and nice. Location: I would say this is the best location in town. Walking distance to fancy restaurants, specialty stores and in town attractions. Easy parking. Next to the river. In the evening, I sat on the swing bench, listening to the river, watching the ducks, and also took a small walk along the river. Very relax. The hotel surprised me in every areas: the room quality, service, location, safeness. I would definitely book it again if we will visit Helen next time.

The fireplace was awesome. It was cold so it made for a comfy night. Loved the loft room and bathroom. They had all you needed in the cabinets for coffee and cooking. Really a good place to stay when you just want to shop and relax. Your pretty much downtown. But far enough away to get the quiet side of it.
