Best sleep ever.
Palihotels are some of the most stunning and it’s always a fantastic experience. The comfiest bed I have ever slept in, incredible food, and attention to detail that makes all the difference.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The hotel decor is stunning, the hotel staff were extremely friendly, check-in took us less than 10 minutes, and the hotel is in a very convenient location, with restaurants and bars all around. We would definitely stay here again!

Weekend get away
My wife and I stayed for a weekend. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. My wife loved the ascetic and decor. The lobby was really nice and they would have lemonade and sweet tea set up sometimes. The elevator is from 1913 so it’s a little small and kinda loud but I would recommend staying here. The staff was great and helpful. Parking can be difficult to find but we were always able to find a spot near by.

Hotel with Character
Interesting old hotel. Everything has been upgraded to meet modern luxury expectations but the room layout is little quirky.

Old and smelly. Bed was lumpy and uncomfortable. Elevator was ridiculous.
Skip this hotel. Age does not become this ancient joint!
