The king room featured a comfortable bed and helpful valets. However, an unsettling experience arose when I discovered cash missing from my car, raising concerns about valet security. Additionally, a change in room revealed a less than ideal response from the night manager. These factors overshadowed the pleasant atmosphere and service experienced in other areas, leading to disappointment during a celebratory occasion.

historic charm but needs updates
The hotel has a lot of historic charm that truly enhances the experience. The room was spacious and comfortable, making our stay pleasant overall.
The property feels dated in several areas, which can detract from the overall experience.

Staying here was a blast, especially having access to the cool food court and the charming historic vibes of the place. The pool and lounge area were perfect for winding down after our adventures. The only hiccup was the internet being a bit spotty, but overall, we really enjoyed our stay! 🙂

We had a fantastic time walking along the beautiful riverfront path, taking in the sights of Wilmington. The spacious rooms were perfect for my family and our colleagues, making our stay both enjoyable and comfortable, especially after long days at meetings.
My kids wished there was a pool for them to enjoy during our stay.

The historic property is filled with charm and has great character. I really enjoyed the personalized tour of the hotel, particularly the magnificent ballroom, which showcased its rich history. Even though the room was spacious and clean, it was starting to show its age, and there were minor maintenance issues. The dining experience at the restaurant was pleasant, although the service could have been more consistent. Overall, it provided a nice atmosphere while we celebrated a special occasion.

The lobby greets you with stunning architecture and elegant decor, creating a welcoming first impression. My room featured a large king bed and a lovely sitting area, providing plenty of space to relax. The bathroom impressed me with its separate tub and shower. Fluffy towels added a touch of comfort. However, my experience took a turn when I found the bathroom sink clogged. Additionally, the door didn’t shut properly, leading to some noise issues that disrupted my peace at times. The hotel's dining options were good, and the staff provided decent service, although there were minor hiccups with room service. Overall, I appreciated the charm of the hotel but felt it fell short in maintenance and attention to detail.

Spacious rooms with elegant decor. The bar closed early and there were limited food options at night. Try the cooking class for a fun experience.
