Even with that issue, I wouldn’t have changed anything. This is truly an awesome hotel.
Extremely pleasant staff. Great rooms, and a great location in the city. Design and decoration is amazing, loved the art work. I would definately recommend for a weekend or extended stay.
A friend took me to the hotel just because he knew I like historical buildings and it's an old bank. He was going to show me a few little areas but Mr Bill caught us going down to the vault and gave us a tour that lasted about an hour. The amount and variety of information that he knew and his enthusiasm for the subject made the place come alive as a historical monument AND showing us the details of the conversion to a *very* lovely hotel as a modern establishment. We saw several rooms and, if you're looking for a wedding prep/night venue ask for the Room 225 suite, and the top floor. Each floor has murals w a story of the city, the elevators are interesting, and the main floor w restaurant and bar is neat. We already are figuring dates to go stay for the night, it's that incredible.
I will definitely be a returning customer because of the great hospitality at front desk,bellman, etc. I had a suite and the rooms are so nice and probably one of the nicer rooms you can find especially in the area. Also was nice being so close to everything so never needed to drive anywhere just walked. Thanks Watermark and would definitely recommend this as a place to stay!
Very nice historic hotel that was once a bank. I appreciate the effort to maintain and highlight some of the history while beautifully remodeling the necessities. I didn’t eat at the restaurant or bar, but they looked busy. This is definitely a trendier Hotel, so don’t expect the boring hotel feel.
The only downside that I experienced (which may be an upside for you), was the location. I’m not taking away any stars because this is relative. There was some sort of concert/dance show that went until midnight across the street from my room. I was there on business, so I needed my sleep. Unfortunately, I’m a light sleeper and this caused a problem for me. Once again, you may like it, or want that. I didn’t complain because this comes with the territory of being downtown in any city. Just know that’s a possibility for your trip too.
The rooms are big and nice. The front desk staff is great. However, we were told that the bar closes at midnight. We were refused service at 11:30pm. The woman at the bar said it was closed and rushed us out, yet there were two people drinking at the bar. I also think the Watermark should not associate itself with the restaurant Milford's. The food is not good.
I wish I had more photos but I was too busy being impressed to think of my camera....
We were told if you just want to eat or drink, drive into valet, tell them you're dining in or hitting the bar, and parking is free. I wish I had an extra day in town so we could check that out, but I'll be back and so will we.
Get the tour by Wild Bill, he is amazing
