Beds and linens were comfy, breakfast pastries could have been fresher (and coffee hotter, staff was very nice. There’s a lot of nice dining options downtown but if you’re a light sleeper, you’ll need earplugs with all of the emergency responders driving by.
We stumbled on this hotel after needing to cancel at another one for reasons I won’t get into here. They have a happy hour with wine and snacks at 5pm each day, coffee and breakfast in the morning, a turn down service with chocolates, and these heavyweight bathrobes that are a dream. The rooms are beautiful and decorated with local artist creations. We loved every minute of our stay there.
Our stay at Hotel Donaldson exceeded our expectations. The hotel is quiet and well maintained. Our room was modern, spacious and clean. The staff is very kind and helpful. There is a nice happy hour from 4-5. They end the evening with prepping your bed for the night and leave truffles as a bedtime treat. In the morning they will bring coffee and pastries to your room at your requested time. Overall a lovely experience and look forward to staying there again.
We loved our stay in the beautiful Hotel Donaldson. The location is great and in downtown. It was a little tricky to get check-in after hours, otherwise amazing staff. The room was beautiful with great amenities.
The staff went above and beyond. We just had a fabulous time. The room was amazing with the biggest tv I’ve ever seen in a hotel room. It’s a smaller, intimate hotel with a great location downtown.
Great rooftop patio. The extras make this hotel exceptional…wine hour, turndown service, pet friendly, restaurant on site, fitness center. The hotel has a lot of character.
