I was very disappointed about how the receptionist treated me when I booked via Expedia. She kept saying the word “unfortunately”. It was even worse because I was extending my stay and she treated me like if I was a wet dog in a non pet friendly hotel. The breakfast is very meh and the hotel is a little on the run down side. It’s just good location. Phillip the bellboy was the nicest ever and he made my stay. Thanks Phil!

Not bad but not as smooth as other Intercontinental hotels. The small things feel lacking. Pillows not soft, breakfast buffet somewhat disorganized and missing basic items such as cereal, granola or bowl, housekeeping forget things. So yes that’s a bit petty but you come here hoping these things are just taken care of.

Bad night out
Rough stay at usually a great hotel. Had no one at valet and front desk was very little help at checkin. Overnight our refrigerator must have died, as all the food we bought at a festival was ruined in the morning and the front desk again did nothing but take my name and number with the promise of a call from a manager, which still has not occurred. In fact, the front desk was more interested in charging the $80 for parking than the $150 in ruined food. And for $80 valet it shouldn’t take 20 minutes to park and 20 to retrieve your car. Usually this is a great hotel and stay often for work, but it was not good for a night away with my wife.

Great location and historic building. Pool and gym are excellent, and the staff/service is top notch. For the price of a room the WiFi could be quicker and a wider range of TV channels provided - but very minor complaints. Overall fantastic.
