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.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel, especially impressed by its beautiful location by the greenery of the park and the gorgeously-restored Buffalo landmark. The rooms were spacious, with giant windows and hugely high ceilings, providing a fantastic atmosphere. The service was top-notch, with thoughtful touches like a welcome drink and happy hour. However, the dining options were not included in our rate, which was a minor downside. Overall, it was a great stay with excellent value for the money.

The hotel is situated in a lovely area amidst Buffalo's city-scape photographic artwork, within a gorgeously-restored Buffalo landmark. Although the maze of corridors can be a bit confusing, the hotel offers a comfortable stay with great service. However, the dining options are limited, and some facilities could be improved.
