Interesting hotel. Historic property with some beautiful architecture and features but plastered with garish signs and furnished with unusual pieces. Overpriced in my opinion.

Historic stay
The hotel is in a beautiful, renovated historic building. The rooms are unique with very high ceilings and very tall windows. There are several public sitting areas. We had a short overnight stay but would definitely stay here if we return to Buffalo.

Fascinating Historical Building
Beautifully restored building with lots of history. We stayed 2 nights and walked the grounds, went to the museum and learned the history of the building. Very friendly staff, as well as good food and wine at the bar. It’s also about 30 minutes to Niagara Falls.

10/10 Exceptional

This property is a historic masterpiece that has been thoughtfully and skillfully renovated and the public spaces and the rooms are gorgeous. The rooms have 16’ ceilings and 12’ high windows. The bathrooms are beautiful and modern. And it’s a 25 minute drive to Niagara Falls. We spent our wedding anniversary there, and I would highly recommend this hotel for a special celebration.
