Victoria Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing! Great location "

The Residence Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was beautiful and the bed was comfortable. However, there really wasn’t anyplace to unpack and store clothing, which made it more difficult to navigate the small space. The shower was great, but the towels were flimsy. The staff were always helpful. We had lunch in the bar one afternoon, which was delicious, although the seafood chowder should have been hotter. We appreciated the parking discount, but rolling heavy bags along the city streets in the rain was exhausting after the drive. Not much to be done about that with the fun location of the property. The hotel is similar to Manhattan boutique properties. "
