My stay started out very rocky but the night manager was amazing! Mary the manager went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and satisfied with our room. Breakfast was amazing! The entire staff were very accommodating. The hotel is near the city center, ladies it's a shoppers paradise! We stayed in the Jr Suite which was very spacious. The team at Atrion will go the extra mile for you!

Clean, spacious, and modern rooms. Staff speak good English and are very helpful. There is minimal parking, although there is a private lot behind the hotel that you can pay to use. Great location, very central and easy to walk everywhere. Only complaint is that it can be very noisy at night since you are so close to areas with a lot of foot traffic.

My husband loved the balcony with the beautiful church view. The room we stayed at a little small for me especially in the bathroom area.
