I would defiently recommand this location to stay. The staff was very friendly and excellent service. Although I was unable to try the Spa, the grounds and surrounding areas were beautiful. They are working on the outside pool. I'll be returning for a longer stay. What made the trip even better was, we were able to check in as soon as we arrived at 12 noon. How satisfying is that, after a long drive. Parking was excellent and the many other dining spots and shopping stores on the on Indian River will keep anyone happy. Lastly the beach is just 20 minutes away.

I really wanted to love this place, and there are definitely some positives, but unfortunately, a few key issues impacted our stay.

The property itself is beautiful, with a lot of historic charm, and it’s impressively clean for its age. That said, our experience fell short in several areas.

We were in town for a funeral and arrived very late, only to be woken up at 7:30 a.m. by loud roofing work directly above us. At no point during booking or during check-in were we informed that construction would be taking place. Even more frustrating, the roofing continued early into the weekend as well, leaving us with no opportunity to rest. We contacted the front desk to ask how long the work would continue and to request a solution, but never received a follow-up from a manager.

Housekeeping was also inconsistent. They came in to remove trash but did not make the bed or clean the room. I had also asked the front desk to replace an empty body wash, but it was never taken care of, I ended up handling it myself. Additionally, the ironing board cover was worn, and the iron had residue on it, making it unusable.

For $300 per night, I expected a much smoother and more attentive experience.

This is an older property that offers many amenities, but it needs to be maintained better. The room was spacious, but needed to be cleaned & vacuumed properly. The floors in the common areas needed vacuuming and mopping. There was an unusual odor in the hallway & in the room. I went to the local market & bought cleaning supplies & freshened the room with an essential oil diffuser. The best part was how quiet the property was.

Room was good, housekeeping was ok only issue was that room service trays were not taken at any moment of my stay. When i arrived it would have been nice to have someone show us to our room as it was midnight and 2 women walking outside to their rooms. It also didnt help that we were placed in a building where some boys sports team was staying. Lets just say it would have been better if we didnt have all the stench and noise throughout the halls.

I called the hotel the Tuesday before my Friday arrival date to first to let them know we would be arriving late Friday night and confirmed that the rooms will still be held. The second reason was to see if the two rooms I reserved can be adjoining rooms. The person I spoke to said the rooms were not adjoining but they were next to each other. Sadly, when my family arrived I was told not only the rooms were NOT next to each other, but in separate buildings. I was in building 4 and my other reserved room was in building 3. I explained to the night auditor I that I had called earlier in the week to confirm the locations of the rooms. I asked her if I reserved two rooms, why would I reserve two rooms in separate buildings. I was told by the night auditor there was nothing noted on my reservations and nothing she could do to change my rooms. So my stay was not poor, but the customer service was not excellent. We visit this part of Virginia twice a year, but I will not be returning to this hotel.

First room didn’t have heat. The engineer handled this amazingly well, moving my room, bringing me the key so I didn’t have to go deal with it, couldn’t have asked for more. 2nd room was across from a room that had at least two dogs that barked incessantly. No one did anything. additionally, calling the water lukewarm would have been a stretch, making for a most unpleasant shower. Hotel looks beautiful on the outside but is in need of some major updates.

The room itself overall was par at best. After a 12 hour 1 day road trip all I wanted was a hot powerful shower and it came out like a drinking fountain. Woke up in the am to no coffee machine at all and when I went to the front desk they wanted to charge me 3.00 for a cup. Then delivered a coffee machine with missing a component. Had to contact the desk three times to get it right. Two of which I had to leave the building. Spoke to three front desk clerks who tried to help and was told the manager would call. Never did!!!

The overall hotel was architecturally beautiful with the gardens and walking trails. It was quite pet friendly. We did not try the breakfast. The area was close to many restaurants for food options. The spa service was good but there were delays due to the staff being 20 minutes behind schedule. There were hairs found on the shower walls and the windows were very dirty which led to our rating for the cleaniless.

After reserving a king suite and arriving at the hotel, the desk staff informed us that the suite was not available and that we would receive a “slight downgrade”. There was nothing slight about said downgrade. The room that we were given was in a different building and was very small with bare minimum amenities. Several lights did not function, the toilet paper holder was falling off the wall, cobwebs hung from the lights in the hallway, and everything in the room itself was dingy.
Not impressed whatsoever, especially since Tapestry Collection hotels are usually quite nice.

I cannot recommend this hotel if you aren’t prepared to gamble with what room they will decide to give you despite your reservation.

I had a stain on my floor and my room had an odor. The buildings where the rooms were just smelled old and not pleasurable. There are ducks that walk around and use the bathroom everywhere, and although i believe in nature. I also believe that the facility could hire someone to pick up feces. The staff were just OK. At upon arrival the staff did try to get my room situation handled promptly. I was told by Expedia that i would have free breakfast and i was charged. At checkout there was no urgency with dealing with that matter. They didnt seem bothered. I needed to use the ATM, and i was asked if i could wait because there was a wedding. I feel like all the urgency went to the wedding and screw everyone else. All in all, the stay was average. Breakfast was cold. I enjoyed the fruit and my tea that i purchased myself. The waiter was nice. He went above and beyond for me.
