The hotel is fantastic, the history, the service, clean nice amenities. The pool water could have been warmer. The high tea at Zoe’s was so much fun and really tasty. The hot water in the shower was very good. Julian at the front desk gave us great restaurant recommendations. I did to the valet parking, the was worth it to us. Loved seeing all the ice skaters on the canal.
