The Peacock Lounge is sophisticated and so beautifully designed. We had a great dinner at the in-hotel restaurant, King. Staff was very professional and polite. Rooms are spacious and housekeeping cones daily. My only “complaint” is that the water supply in our room didn’t get very hot, so showers were lukewarm.

Not satisfied

The room that I paid for was over priced and the room had a shower that was dirty. After requesting a new room I was given a room that had mold in the shower. The last and final room was what I expected but was on another side of the hotel that was newly remodeled. Pictures of the room that was selected was false advertising. Also the hotel had no vegan options so we spent most of the time dinning out but lucky for us the town had plenty vegan options just not the hotel.

Excellent location to use as a home base for exploring the city. The entire staff is AWESOME. Special thanks to Ross who retrieved our car from valet parking. Always friendly, always answered any and all questions, and offered suggestions for dining and viewing the city. We ate in all three restaurants and had excellent meals in all.
