Good stay in a lovely place
Pros:

Staff was great. Salon Bar had a good vibe and Kay was an excellent bartender. Beautiful decor. Location was average.

Cons:

Surprised that a property of this caliber does not have any morning coffee options either in the room or common areas.
Bathroom sink drained slowly and we advised front desk twice but it was not repaired during our stay.

I would stay again but would definitely take advantage of the property space such as the sunroom and would choose a roo
Pros:

The location and staff were great ! The room was clean and beautiful. The restaurant was delicious . The products in the bathroom were amazing !

Cons:

Our room was on the first floor and was adjacent to the front porch so we could hear people’s voices and their foot steps . You could also hear people walking above our room . The sound machine the room had was helpful .

The restaurant and the decor through the property are my top favorites. The service is great. It’s super clean, which is a big plus for me, and the amenities are great.

Pros:

Room and amenities were great.

Cons:

Our room was above The Studio, it was very noisy until late in the night. Considering the price of the rooms, we would expect to be able to sleep quietly.

we will be back.
Pros:

Loved the locale, the staff, the dining room and the library.. so beautifully decorated. The entrance was fabulous with all the glorious wall papers. We really enjoyed the vibe.
If I were to offer a suggestion to the hotel, I would warm up the rooms with more wall paper.. maybe that is the long range plan, the common area was so fabulous and our room was a bit too white and stark, but the addition of more wall paper would make a huge difference.

Beautiful hotel in a wonderful location
Pros:

The building itself is stunning, very well furnished and the staff are lovely.

Cons:

The cream carpet everywhere adds a tone of opulence but it has some considerable stains in our room. The management were very apologetic and gave us a partial refund. They dealt with our issue very well.

Beautiful newer hotel, but still trying to get a few small kinks out
Pros:

Beautiful property in a great location. They really are trying to give their guests an elevated experience.

Cons:

The room does not have a desk. We often have to work on vacation and it was a problem for us. My husband had to make a makeshift desk out of his suitcase. They also don’t have a mirror outside of the bathroom. So I ended up sitting on the floor to blow dry my hair while my husband was showering.

Pros:

Beautiful property, very well taken care of. Great restaurant/bar views.

Cons:

The hotel is undeniably beautiful, with stylish interiors and a great location. That said, I felt the experience did not justify the very high price. Beyond the décor, the service and overall stay felt like any standard hotel—nothing especially attentive, personal, or memorable that would warrant such a premium cost. For what I paid, I expected something above and beyond, but instead it felt ordinary behind the pretty exterior.
