Located one block from the Star Line Ferry dock, easy walking distance from downtown shopping and historical sites. Enjoyed the view from the front porch, and the warmth of the fireplace during our visit in the fall. Highly recommend a meal in the 1852 Grill Room.

We loved our beautiful room! Also, didn't realize there was a hot tub there until we checked in, and it was wonderful, especially on the rainy and cold day we had. Very clean, both the hot tub and the room. Definitely would like to stay there again!

The hotel is full of history and in a perfect location. The process getting from the ferry to the hotel couldn’t be easier, and the fire pits are such a relaxing end to the day. Our daughter loved the pool, and breakfast at the restaurant was pricey, but good. The mini-fridge was perfect for evening drinks and snacks. Will definitely be back!
