The place was nice.. BUT.... there is public parking across from the hotel. I started to park there and questioned the front desk about it. It was advised I should use there valer parking as the public parking resets at 6 am. The thing the don't tell you is that valet parking is a 25 dollar charge to you. I felt duped/lied too... For that I would not advise this as a place to stay... dishonesty don't go far with me....

Make sure you ask for an updated room. We were placed in the newer tower that had the original rooms as opposed to the historic tower which had the updated rooms(we eventually found out). The hallways reeked of smoke, the room had a slight mildew smell and the bathtub was stained and peeling everywhere, too disgusting to even shower in. The beds were comfy though.

Beautiful hotel
Beautiful hotel. Elegant and well-maintained. We enjoyed the walking through the various areas on the 1st and 2nd floor (library, bar, meeting rooms, silver ballroom, etc) with all of their chandeliers and 1920-1930s touches. Stayed here for our anniversary, including dinner at the Bridgeman's Chophouse (excellent food and service, very pricey). Our room had a comfy king size bed and tub which is what I appreciate. The room itself was basic. The bathroom was overly large since it was an accessible room but enjoyed the tub as I mentioned above.

There is an emphasis on history and service at this property which makes one feel as though she has stepped back in time. The lobby and ground floor are beautiful with wood and marble everywhere. We elected for a premier room which was spacious and comfortable. The indoor pool is lovely and relaxing. For less than the cost of a chain hotel, this stay has exceeded my expectations.
