Beautiful historic hotel in New Bedford, MA

It was a beautiful old hotel in town (New Bedford). That gave it a lot of character integrated with the room being updated nicely with modern conveniences. I was on the 5th floor and had a great view of the city and partially of the harbor. My daughter and her husband-to-be live a couple blocks away. Because they have off street parking, I left my car there and they picked me up during my stay for Mother’s Day weekend. That was an inconvenience to work around. However, area is very walkable to a number of restaurants. I did enjoy my room and would consider staying in this hotel during their wedding next year!

Room was on the smaller side. We went to restaurant and no one came to our table, only to find out they didn’t have waiters. Our reservation stayed the hotel had room service so we decided to go and order instead, to find out it was a misprint on our reservation and they do not have room service. Breakfast was lukewarm coffee and a bagel, a bit disappointed in the whole experience.

Sunday morning, Continental breakfast was poorly maintained. No regular coffee, had to ask for a knife, sign offering kitchen options without a attendee. Love the location for a The Vault concert even though it is street parking.

Run away, the hotel management doesn’t give a damn

This hotel may have been great when it first opened but the hotel administration just don’t give a damn, Especially the young woman at the evening desk. She made up rules about parking and the towing of customer’s cars. I had a handicapped person in our party. This young woman on the evening desk told us we could park in front of the hotel on the street and then waited until 11pm at night to call and tell us we would get towed unless we moved our car. I found out the next day that if my car were to get towed it would be by her and not the police. Please read reviews. I wish I had. Never again.
