The chef created breakfasts, prepared to order - delicious!!! Staff were so pleasant and really making an effort to be considerate and accommodating. Room was nice, quiet and ample parking available. Across the street from the river and a beautiful park, and a couple sports bars within walking distance. The hotel is about 11 yrs old, but it looks brand new-really well cared for and maintained. Highly recommended and will stay again the next time in town.

Quiet, comfortable, restful stay.

So many positives, clean, comfortable, luxurious and delicious breakfasts! Our one negative was no access to a small fridge to keep our water cold. There is only the mini bar which of course is locked! It was very hot outside and cold water was needed.

Great location, super friendly staff, above average complimentary breakfast. Literally my only complaint is that our room had this weird sliding door for the bathroom that was very difficult to close, and didn’t offer great privacy when closed. Otherwise a great hotel, and a great stay. Would be very happy to stay again.

One night staycation at The James!

We only stayed one night. Room is very clean, bed is comfortable, air conditioning works well, all appears to be clean and looked after. The view of the river is worth a million bucks. Includes comfy robes, an espresso machine, and a full fridge of items to purchase to drink, or small snacks. I would definitely stay here again, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. The lounge was a nice spot for a night cap. The included breakfast is top notch, with a small buffet, and also table service for made to order items. And the coffee is very good! I would love to have had a balcony to sit out and enjoy the view. But we did not splurge for that this time.
