We were in town visiting our son for the 4th of July. The staff was very friendly. The beds were comfortable and the shower was great. The restaurant and bar with live music is always a great treat. We enjoyed the parade, shops, and restaurants close by. Parking was a plus.

Nice hotel conveniently situated with lots of restaurants and shops within easy walking distance, the room was nice but the mattress had seen better days, had to put a pillow at my side so that I didn’t fall out the bed. The bathroom was small and toilet was a bit cramped against the wall, but I appreciate that it’s an old building.

Great location and beautiful historic hotel with so much interesting memorabilia. Unfortunately, our checkin lady wasn’t very helpful and didn’t tell us there were tours of the hotel to learn the history —would have enjoyed that. Rooms are plenty big for an old hotel and cutely decorated. Fun bar in the Belle. And be prepared for nighttime noise from revelers outside!

It is an historic hotel in a great location, so in that context it was amazing. It’s part hotel and part museum complete with a saloon. The building is over 137 years old and an icon of the downtown area. You’ll feel like you are in a Time Machine, so that is why we loved it. You just have to keep in mind it’s super well maintained but it’s just old and historic so it doesn’t have modern amenities in the most of rooms for example. We will stay here again.
