Kress's location is perfect and the decor of the hotel is fabulous. However, we had serious problems with the noise issues in the Gloucester room we rented. The loverly brick wall in the bedroom is attached to a lively bar on the other side. It was very loud in our room till near 1am They give you a noise machine to offset the sound but that didn't help much. Worse, they knew of the issue and didn't tell us when booking - the noise machine and apparently Thursday to Sunday they don't book that room. They had several empty rooms the night we were there so really they could have moved us to allow us to enjoy our evening. The hotel room is also street level, so you have noise from the street as well. That part was not as much of an issue but a concern since you really can't open the blinds as you are right on the main street. Again, the Kress is a beautiful hotel with superb location but the Gloucester room is a must to avoid if sleep is a consideration for you. The manager was made aware the next morning and offered us a future upgrade but failed to give us a biz card to say her name so it seems like its a bit a long shot of happening. There was one other upsetting item that we had but I'll keep that to myself as I wouldn't want any of their staff to have issues this time of year. In short, lovely place if you avoid rooms on the left side of the hotel.

Very wise birthday choice. I enjoyed the amenities of the hotel and loft suite very much. The loft layout was very attractive and super functional with a great mix of modern and antique furnishings, the exposed brick, tract lighting and Juliette balcony with extra long drapes were dramatically attractive. The dinner at 1509 was excellent, the restaurant balcony view was relaxing and the 10-15 percent meal discount for guests of the hotel was the topping on the cake. The white cotton housecoat and slippers were a very pleasant treat. The bear skin rug in the loft area was a nice added treat. The suite was equipped with anything you need for luxury living and the view of Newcastle Street from the Juliette balcony during first Friday was awesome.

This hotel is amazing. Everything from the floors to the ceilings to all the furnishings were done with the best taste and consistency with the time period of the building. I couldn't believe the room had a full kitchen and a washer and dryer in addition to the living space and sleeping areas.
