A beautifully maintained old-school property, something of a time-machine in comparison with the modern hospitality business.

Great Place!
The staff was beyond awesome in more ways than one... Nice old place! Full of character and well placed. Probably the only thing I could speak negative was being out of bacon at breakfast when I came down 15min before it was over.

Stayed here for a long weekend with family and it was a great stay. Breakfast was good and the coffee/tea station was available till a decent time. Check in and check out was a breeze. Location was great only 5-10 min drive to the beach and parking was convenient and easy. Pool was good but the are cpuld be more upkept and clean.

I loved the staff! They were so friendly!! The chef made my friend a special coffee during breakfast. The charm of the hotel made it a place we didn’t even want to leave! A picture perfect garden and our room had a little water view which was a bonus! They treated us like royalty and made us feel like we were in a real resort! The pool was small but refreshing and the only downside was the pool sat right by a busy road so there was traffic zooming by. Other than that it was perfect and worth the money !

Lovely Historical Hotel
It was my 2nd time at this property. Such a beautiful old hotel. I was upgraded to a veranda deluxe room which was a wonderful surprise. I have one daughter in Historic Kenwood and another in Brighton Bay. This hotel’s location isn’t super convenient to other of those neighborhoods but I will happily stay here anytime I’m in town.
