The hotel was beautiful for the age and location perfect for shopping and the gardens are directly across the street. The hotel restaurant was delicious with friendly staff throughout. Our only negative was the parking was confusing , we ended up taking tickets and paying at the machine and then being charged again by the hotel. So be sure to ask the parking process or keep your receipts to reconcile at the end maybe

Hotels is nice, but my room without hair dryer. I believe it happened accidentally. I asked for a hair dryer, they bring me a odor eliminator. After that they bring me a real hair dryer, but it is not working. And they said it is the only one they have. Finally all my family have to wait the hair dry to sleep.

Close to the city garden,citadel and the waterfront dining. The Arms restaurant is good for late arrivals but availability fluctuates quickly if a tour checks in. Lots of other foods/drink spots around about a two block square area if you don’t want to wander to the waterfront. Nice big room though didn’t notice on booking and was surprised that our room rate for 3 nights varied each day getting to its most expensive level the last night (Aug 30). I am not sure it would have made any difference to our selection but just didn’t notice what was presumably a demand based rate possibly related with not booking the whole long weekend.
