The hotel is located in a gorgeously-restored Buffalo landmark, close to everything and to 3 quite close terrific museums. The rooms have hugely high ceilings with giant windows and 2 single beds, offering a spacious and comfortable stay. The service provided, including dry cleaning, housekeeping, a welcome drink, and happy hour, was top-notch. However, dining was not included in our rate, limiting the meal options.

The hotel is situated in a lovely area amidst Buffalo's city-scape photographic artwork, within a gorgeously-restored Buffalo landmark.
