Here’s a polished Expedia-style review based on your notes: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent stay! Excellent location with top-notch accommodations and amenities. The charcuterie board time, milk-and-cookie time, and a great breakfast truly make this place one of a kind. The lounge area with the fireplace is amazing and very inviting. Rooms are fantastic, and the overall experience was outstanding. Very kid-friendly as well. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed the hotel very much! The location is ideal. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The staff is very attentive to detail. We loved the pre-visit email, the welcome and goodbye notes, the signature room fragrance to take home, the wine and cheese party and the late night port. We met interesting people/guests in the bar, and the every member of the team that works there is polite, knowledgeable, and friendly. We will return!

Excellent hotel! Very well maintained and serviced with all the "little things" that used to be standard at a premier property. Comp water, turn down chocolates, weather report, paper and pens at the writing desk and the room was completely serviced each day. The room was large and well appointed. The concierge/desk was very friendly and helpful and the hotel generally had a peaceful elegant air about it. There was a complimentary wine and cheese hour each evening and milk and cookies before bedtime. The location is perfect for exploring the city and adjacent to some fantastic restaurants.
