Very pleased!

I took a solo trip for myself this past weekend & booked a room at the Bellwether. I’ll start off by saying I couldn’t have been more pleased with my stay. The hotel is beautiful! Clean lobby and clean & spacious room! The bed was firm but inviting. I slept like a baby. The only issue I had was finding close parking. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

Bellwether hotel stay

We were disappointed by our stay. The property uses fully contactless check-in, which could be convenient, but unfortunately, there was no response when we tried to reach out through the messaging service for assistance. The experience felt more like a self-service rental than a hotel, with no on-site staff available. Our room had only one window placed high on the wall, making it impossible to access the shade or let in natural light. While the property is marketed as an upscale hotel, it did not meet those expectations. Would not recommend based on our experience.

The boutique Bellwether Hotel is so beautiful and a step back in time. The art deco design, the second floor lounge, and the rooms all beautifully decorated and comfortable. Walk to restaurants, grocery, bars and antique shops.
