The hotel is situated just on the outskirts of downtown Camden, in the gardens on-site, which makes it a serene location close to everything. The rooms are filled with character and charm, boasting an array of amazing books, a cozy balcony, and a comfortable coach. While the dining options are limited to fried fish, the service is commendable, catering to special requests like gluten-free options. However, the price could be seen as high for the value received.

What a cozy and inviting hotel! The rooms are filled with character and charm, complete with fireplaces, comfy couches, and a great selection of books. The service was top-notch, catering to my gluten-free request with a smile. The location is just on the outskirts of downtown Camden, making it convenient yet still peaceful. The dining experience left something to be desired with limited options, but the Welsh pastry was a nice touch. Facilities were clean and well-maintained, adding to the overall pleasant stay.

The hotel is wonderfully located just on the outskirts of downtown Camden, close to the state park and with beautiful gardens on-site. The rooms are full of character and charm, with amazing balcony views and a cozy coach, yet priced a bit on the higher side. The service, including catering to gluten-free requests, welcome drinks, and happy hour, is excellent. The dining experience offers a delicious Manchego ratatouille. The facilities are top-notch, making for a truly memorable stay.
