After a hellacious day of travel, we finally made it to Hotel Emeline and were warmly welcomed by the incredible staff. It was decorated so beautifully for the holidays and the rooms were clean, cozy, and well curated. Great location, great bar downstairs. Will stay here again and again when we come back to visit family!

I really enjoyed the many different areas to hang out and the theme of the hotel. The fresh fruit each day really fit the right spot. I also love its location I could walk everywhere. However, there were quite a few things broken that need maintenance.

The staff was warm and friendly. The only issue I had was that there was not an iron or ironing board in the room. When I called housekeeping they brought one right away however the iron was of poor quality. A very minor issue to an otherwise great property. I will stay there again.
