What a beautiful property! Only here for a night but the young man who checked us in was wonderful and got us a room a little early. Perfect location for a night and some shopping in Stillwater

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Great location, handy to everything. Our room could have been cleaner (it was rather dusty), and there was a lot of street noise from ongoing construction just down the street.
Thank you, as we passed through we enjoyed a good night at the historic hotel, Stillwater is a city to be appreciated and the hidden gem to explore. A must.
Great location to shops and restaurants.
And next to the river! Hotel was clean with a friendly and accommodating staff.
Having two good restaurants attached to hotel is a nice plus.
Also parking included right by the hotel.
Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

The staff treated us with kindness and respect. We let a wonderful lady know that we were celebrating a special time as a couple, “50” YEARS OF MARRIAGE!!!
She upgraded us to a room overlooking the beautiful St.Croix River. Such a Class Act!!! Nice hut tub in the room and a cozy deck overlooking the beautiful bridge and river walk. The gas fireplace topped off a beautiful time at the rooftop bar restaurant on a chilly evening, we warmed up in our cozy room. My wife and I highly recommend this amazing getaway in beautiful Stillwater Mn.
Location was perfect for viewing the river and loved the deck. I felt it was expensive given the average amenities and the added $19 charge for parking. No breakfast was included.
Friendly staff on the water of the St. Croix River. My stay was relaxing and enjoyable.

This is a unique building and a wonderful location, however, our suite did not have working A/C and we had a miserable night of sleep. Some staff were friendly, not all. When I go back to Stillwater, I won’t stay here. If you must, request a room in the new part of the hotel and hopefully your temperature control works!
The location is fantastic and gave us a great view of the Lift Bridge and surrounding park area. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Food in the Tavern was solid and a nice surprise after cancelling other plans. I can see a return visit in the future.
The hotel is in a great location right on the river. We were there when the Stillwater art fair was happening and the town was very busy. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. The person that appeared to be the manager was cold and short in her responses to questions. She seemed annoyed at any requests that were made. However, as I mentioned, Michael the front desk staff person that I interacted with both on the phone and in person was professional and friendly. He went above and beyond to offer assistance and make any accommodations. I would rate him as a 5 stars out of 5. The room was cozy but could use a few updates/TLC. We were appreciative of the decor that kept with the history of the property. Overall, we would come back. It does seem overpriced for what you get, however. I guess, location, location, location.
Convenient location, right downtown. Rooms on river side have views of Lowell Park, St. Croix River and the lift bridge. Rooftop restaurant and the Irish Pub at street level are both good. The rooms are spacious and very clean, comfy mattress and offer a variety of pillows so you can find one that suits.
The balcony windows and chair cushions could've been cleaner, but they were acceptable.
