We enjoyed a delightful stay in the Terrace view room. The cozy ambiance and breathtaking views of the ancient oak against autumn leaves created a perfect backdrop. The staff was attentive, making our Thanksgiving dinner a highlight. Don’t miss out on the breakfast pastries!

The hotel offers a charming, historic atmosphere
that truly adds to the experience, but the noise from the nearby highway was a bit distracting. The staff was friendly and the amenities were nice, though the dining experience felt a bit overpriced for what we received.

The location is picturesque, providing a lovely patio overlooking the river, a perfect spot to unwind. The menu features delicious food with touches like muesli that truly stand out. However, the room felt outdated with dated furniture, and the check-in process was frustratingly slow, exacerbated by a shift change at an inconvenient time. Additionally, the final bill included a questionable $5.28 charge for employee benefits, making the $250 per night room rate feel overpriced.

The sandwiches at the restaurant were a culinary thrill, bursting with fresh flavors that'll make your taste buds dance. Plus, don’t miss out on their complimentary tea time—you’ll wanna kick back with tea and scones like you’re living the high life! The bar area had a cozy vibe perfect for winding down after a day of exploring.
The dining room seemed understaffed, leading to long waits for meals, which felt out of sync with the price tag here. Also, the balcony and dining room windows could use a good scrub—nothing says 'rustic charm' like a bit of well-loved dust.

great location but some room improvements needed
The location was convenient for splitting the drive. The windows opened, which I appreciated for fresh air. The patio for breakfast was quite nice.
The temperature control in the room was a bit confusing.

The Deluxe Queen Room was really comfy with plenty of space. A nice view of the trees added to the charm. The only downside? It felt a bit dark in some corners. But the overall vibe was cozy and welcoming.
