This was our 3rd stay at The Gwen. Check-in, room, comfort and staff all great as they’ve been in the past. However, our brunch on Sunday was very overpriced relative to what it was, and it seemed hard to get a reservation despite the fact that it was almost empty when our time came. I tried on a Couple of occasions over the weekend to get drinks at the bar and gave up due to a long wait. I’ll maybe return not sure yet.

Chic hotel Wonderful getaway for a quick girls trip! Rooms have a nice amount of space and the concierge was unmatched! They went the extra mile to ensure my sister experienced a beautiful weekend!

Overall highly over rated hotel. I had hoped for a much nicer experience given the local options at comparable costs but was let down tremendously. I highly regret not booking elsewhere. Interactions with staff were cold, unfriendly, uninviting and the several I interacted with during my stay were combative or down right hostile. Hotel claims to be “luxury” but there’s really nothing luxury about it except perhaps the bathrooms.

The Gwen was a really lovely hotel with great vibes in the lobby and bar area, too. The concierge helped us with balloons and champagne in our room as we were celebrating a birthday, and the employee who checked us in gave us two drink vouchers when our room wasn’t ready right away. Overall, it was a great stay and location and I’d stay here again!
