10/10 Exceptional

Very pleasant. Everything was well done and the hotel is beautiful.

Stunning Building

This hotel was absolutely stunning!!! Loved all the historical touches and would definitely stay again if I was in the area. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Abigale, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a very unique property with a lot of history.
Cynthia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel

This is a beautifully restored property that was comfortable. My only issue was navigating around it since at times it was confusing going between the wings of the hotel. The continental breakfast the next morning was a little underwhelming since it was nearly empty - coffee included by 9 am. The staff was friendly and pleasant and very helpful.
Lisa, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Still Feels like an Insanse Assylum

The room was great good and small, somthing I would expect. However, they advertized laundry service and there was none. They advertized a full bar and only had beer and wine and not a good variety. No room service, no room cleaning. The "Free" Breakfast was on a platic roll cart and often cold and stale. The front Desk attendant was rude to me and my wife. For the price and service we would have had a better stay at a Courtyard Marriot

10/10 Exceptional

Fabulous

Absolutely amazing hotel - a completely renovated architectural gem by H.H. Richardson set among 40 acres of an Olmsted-designed park. Outstanding reuse of a fabulous building and gorgeous hotel with excellent service. Loved, loved, loved.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms and hallways are incredibly spacious. Quiet on the weekdays, but seemed notably busier on Saturday night into Sunday. Definitely off the beaten path relative to Downtown Buffalo but still walkable, though a bit more challenging in the winter.
