Such a cool historic hotel with modern conveniences but old time opulence. 2 restaurants. A very fine dining one. Reservations required. A wine/coffee bar that also serves breakfast and sandwiches.

Clean room, great atmosphere and excellent staff. Room was clean and no gross “hotel” smell. The only thing negative is we had a jet tub room and we had no hot water to enjoy it. The shower had no hot water either, along with no water pressure.
