Loved the architecture, and the fact that it was built in the first few years of 1900. The staff was exceptional. Breakfast was included and it was excellent. The gal taking care of the food was very friendly. The nights were warm and later we found that we could have asked for a fan. We just thoroughly enjoyed our stay and your beautiful city.

Location, transportation, and dining options

The location was fabulous! It was across the street from the harbor and the walking path. There was a multitude of restaurants from which to choose to dine as well. The lady staffing the front desk recommended a nice restaurant a couple blocks away that served traditional fare. The entry was inconspicuous so we actually entered a restaurant first but were directed to the right location by a group of friendly people in the bar. The balcony in our room faced a courtyard that had limited parking spots. We could also see a small view of the harbor from the balcony. There is a small sitting room with a balcony that faces the waterfront. It’s on the same floor as the room in which we stayed and it’s a nice place to read. The breakfast they served was delicious. There is no elevator but the clerk offered to assist with luggage. The street in front provides transportation of many types including a bus to the cruise pier. It’s about a 5-10 minute walk following a blue line to make one’s way back to a ship from where the bus stops.

Hotel Esplanade is a unique hotel. It is wonderfully “dated” with character and comfort. We stayed in a very nice and spacious suite with a harbor view. As we stayed for 5 nights, an improvement would be a dresser to unpack and store clothing more easily. The hotel has a fantastic, friendly and helpful staff. We especially appreciated Joanna at the front desk. The breakfast was quite nice and well taken care of. Great location makes it very highly recommended in every way.

We loved staying at the Esplanade. The charm and character of the entire building was incredible. From the delicious breakfast spread each day to the relaxing sitting room upstairs to the outdoor balconies - we couldn’t get enough. We had split our trip between two different hotels and in the end were wishing we had stayed with the Esplanade for the entire time! Staff were all helpful and friendly. Will absolutely be back!
