Loved the Wilder. Great location and staff was amazing. Rooms were not large but lovely details - loved the tea cups for coffee/tea and the cookies for the morning. Lots of towels and amenities and a lovely outdoor seating area - quiet spot but close to many ways to explore the city.

Tiny, charming place.

We had a small room with queen bed. What they call a small double. Barely had room for the bed, no storage space. Shower you could barely turn around in. But great location, great breakfast, and charming place

Wonderful Time at The Wilder

Absolutely wonderful experience! Check in was a breeze, the staff were really lovely, wonderful accommodations that were so warm and inviting. When making my booking I mentioned it was our first wedding anniversary and the Wilder team left us some delicious pastries and a lovely note to greet us as soon as we walked into the room for the first time. Truly, a fantastic experience and much preferred to a typical corporate hotel.

Great place but...

This place is amazing in many ways. However, I wouldn't advise booking a room on a third-party site. The room we got, while still expensive, was described as a "shoebox" by the woman who checked us in. She "upgraded" us to a room with two twin beds. Not great for $400-plus a night and our 30th anniversary. Having said that, the rest of the staff was amazing, and it is beautiful. If you want to stay here, pay the money and get a nicer room.
