This place was fabulous. We stayed in The Madison and it was beautiful, cozy and chic. Would absolutely stay again. Very reasonable price for the area. If you are someone who needs a front desk and lots of attention to check-in/out, you won't get it here. Instead everything is done electronically which suits me fine, it's very efficient and they know what they're doing. If you need anything, you can call or text the manager and they are very responsive. They email and/or text you your codes about an hour before check-in and it works beautifully. The instructions are very simple to follow. The only 2 things I didn't love, and this is personal to me YMMV, the rain shower was very pleasant but fixed into place and not at all adjustable, however, if you're very tall you will love it! Also I personally don't like one side of the bed up against the wall, but that's just me so take that with a grain of salt. Overall 5 stars.

Quiet, cozy hideaway

Very cool hotel! It almost felt like we were staying at a friend's house because the room had a very cozy feel with cool furniture and even a fireplace. Check in was easy. The only tiny drawback was that we were on the first floor and could hear the people upstairs walking around. We didn't hear their tv or anyone talking though. It was otherwise quiet and we slept great. Overall, it was a 10 out of 10 and we'd definitely stay there again!

I loved this hotel. It's small, quiet and beautiful. The common areas are lovely for hanging out. Our room had a gas fireplace and so we were able to make it nice and cozy despite the cold. The bed was super comfy. The staff were friendly and spoke highly of the owners. The owner communicated directly with me via text. I want to go back to Buffalo, just to stay at this hotel again.

We had a very nice overnight stay. The room was very clean and comfortable. The gas fireplace was a nice touch. The shower was nice with the rainfall shower head and the soaps/shampoo/conditioner was great. Only complaint was that the pillows were too big/overstuffed. It would have been nice to have a variety of pillows

I had a great stay at the Edward and would stay there again. It's in a beautiful, very convenient part of Buffalo (just a few minutes by car to downtown and just a few minutes in the other direction to the AKG Museum) and my room was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Note that the Edward operates on a completely contactless basis. They will send you a text with all the information you need to check in, park, etc. Although I very occasionally heard my fellow guests, I literally never saw another person when I was there for my one-night stay. That was a bit unusual! However, when I had a question about check-out, it was very easy to get a staff member on the phone. Perhaps this is the wave of the future for small, boutique hotels.
