Reviews for The Brown Hotel

As for Kat the hotel buffet! The manager is a doll as well.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 days ago

The hotel just sends you to the past the moment you enter, all beautiful. Beds and sheets are most comfortable and everything is clean and just fantastic. My favorite was the buffet, my experience was the breakfast, and the buffet was by far the best I have ever had at any hotel (not just the U.S., I travel a lot. The food selection, in addition to the waffles, meats, etc. which were gourmet level done right - the salad bar had quinoa with mango, fresh salmon, the brightest most colorful fresh vegtables you can imagine, cheese and fruits galore. Worth every penny. But the best part was the people, the service was the kindest most professional and welcoming. Shout out to my server Kat, who is such a pro and could be a hospitality ambassador without even trying. Just fantastic, and she really took care of this weary traveler for which I am grateful!! I hope to see you again, Kat! Thank you for making feel like I was home away from home :) - Lisa S.

Tiny overpriced room - rude staff!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Stayed here in June for a wedding - room is tiny and the staff was very rude! Room had no natural lighting. When brought to the attention of management (I think I actually spoke to the GM but not sure) they seemed very condescending about our situation. I would definitely avoid!

Beautiful old hotel.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

I came here for a conference and the entire staff was amazing, the food, the atmosphere, and the service was great. My only complaint if you can even call it that is, while I understand this is a historic hotel and many things are left alone to keep the classic beauty, there were many spots that could have used fresh paint, with large chunks of paint peeling on the ceilings and upper walls. That being said that small critique will not keep me from staying here again if I come through town again.

Always stay here

The Brown is beautiful, quiet, large rooms, just a very nice place. The check in folks were nice, went above and beyond as I have mobility issues. The bartender, James, was so on it. The only bartender and he was fast. Plus, the food was good! I slept like a baby.

Delicious food

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

This hotel is magnificent. A little dated and worn out but worth a trip there. Had a Hot Brown for the first time and it was delicious. Will definitely be back. The chef came out and talked to us also which I thought was very nice of him. We’ll definitely be back.
