Terrible bed, dimly lit bathroom, burned out light bulbs everywhere, dirty halls, cluttered lobby, poor service. They were filming a cheap movie in the lobby and access was restricted. No parking. I felt like we were part of “The Shining”

The hotel is a combination of retro and modern. The rooms are spacious and clean with alots of charm and little details. The shower and soaker tube alone are worth the stay. It's easy to locate and walking distance from many things in downtown.

While this hotel is close to everything it definitely shouldn't cost as much as it does a night. The rooms are very small and the bathroom design is clearly a mess. When you shower the water gets all over the floor and you have to use the towels to clean it up. On top of that you have to step into the shower to get the towels and there's no hooks for them anywhere. The toilet has a window right next to it and the view was a seating area......not sure who designed this but it's a poor design. On top of that the huge step from the bathroom to the room is a safety hazard. You hear every single door open in the hall, so that kept me up all night. Plus someone elses hair was on the wall on the shower so I'm pretty sure they don't clean probably. The staff was just ok, nothing to right home about. I wouldn't stay here again.…

Close to everything. Very clean facility Reasonably priced. Friendly staff. Easy check in and out process. Building has an Old World big city charm. Many restaurants and places of interest nearby. Hotel room was quiet for a good night's sleep.

We attended an event at the Greenhouse Room. It was an exceptional experience. The hotel staff were plentiful and they provided excellent service. They had multiple stations for snacks and desserts . They had a Buffalo and Mexican station for the food. Everything was excellent. I hope we get to go back.

We stayed here on January 20th for one night. The hotel was gorgeous. The only thing lacking is hot coffee in the lobby. The hotel has many restored pieces and architecture which made it very interesting to walk around. The Staff were AMAZING! All staff were helpful at the Front Desk. The Cleaning Staff were also friendly.

Gorgeous "old time" hotel restored. I lived there for most of my life, but moved 10 years ago. Came back for friend's wedding, and the place could not have been more beautiful. Rooms are fully modern and up to date. Bathroom is spacious and private. Bar(s) have a great set up with plenty of space. Only issue with anything is parking. Nothing is super close, so if you have a bunch of stuff it can be tedious to transport. However, there are lots close enough, and fairly cheap for overnight parking. (I mean...it's Buffalo. Compared to hotels or anything elsewhere in States, it's fairly cheap).

I'm gonna keep this as short as I can. Read through the reviews. I failed to do this and I was blinded by the pretty pictures of the Junior King Suite. Public hair on the toilet seat, dust on the shelf so thick I could write my name, soda stains on furniture, half-empty toiletry bottles, a mushy bed, dingy carpet, and furniture with lint all over it. Movie was being filmed in the lobby which makes you have to walk around the back side to enter your room. The room was dirty like it had not been cleaned for 6 months. Limited staff, one lady who was the manager was working there with a small baby about 3 months old. The child was crying . A big disappointment since I was here for a history conference I wanted to stay in a historical hotel. This place has potential but the staff is neglecting the building. Beautiful architecture but a dirty and unkempty building.…

I was looking forward to a pool and a lobby to sit in. You should have warned your guests that the lobby was not usable. And the people shooting the movie told me to be quiet as I was checking in (I was only answering questions the front desk was asking me.)
