We excited about staying in this Hotel. The rooms were clean and wonderful. The Hotel was well appointed and wonderful decorated. The staff was friendly . The Hotel had a very good restaurant. Despite these wonderful appointments I wouldn’t stay there again. Expedia price says expressly taxes and fees included. We where charged an additional $87.00 in fees and taxes during our stay. The Hotel did provide a $50.00 credit but charged us $267.00 for “incidentals “ for two nights, that they deducted the taxes . I was planning on recommending this hotel but I will not do so . I hope this didn’t happen to other patrons and just me. If that is the case shame on this Hotel.

Fabulous NYE 2025 at Hotel Heron!
Had a great stay at Hotel Heron for New Year's. I was one of the lucky few that got to experience the amazing 10 course tasting dinner at Kiln that was very special and so deliciously decadent!
