Great Spa Poor Hotel

Wonderful spa! Hotel not so much. I was expecting a 4 star Hyatt. But it is more like 2 stars. Restaurants had kimited menus and poor food. I sent mine back. The bed was uncomfortable and had the worst quality of bedding!!

Didn't like that there was no mini fridge or microwave in the room for the price. The paranormal tour should be included. Staff were very friendly
Danita, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great hotel BUT NOT FOR KIDS

Honestly this hotel is not for families at all. Breakfast is available but NOT included. Our dinner took 45 minutes to get to us and when it did arrive my roasted carrots were dry and raw. Also never been to a restaurant that has a bread plate in the table but doesn’t serve bread.
Kristine, 1-night trip

The Elms is so beautiful! Such a great place.
Jaclyn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Who knew The Elms was so voraciously haunted!?! 😳

Since I’m terrified of the paranormal and there was nothing in the description or explanations on hotels.com to outline/detail the paranormal activity along with nightly paranormal tours, I booked and had to pay ahead as required by this hotel. Had I not paid ahead, once I knew about the paranormal activity, I would have skeedaddled! It made me very anxious and uncomfortable and despite the beautiful spa, I won’t be staying at The Elms again!

Amber, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Such a beautiful resort hotel with history, grace and charm - coupled with gorgeous decor and a friendly and helpful staff. The sort of place that makes you feel special just because you are there! The King Parlor Suite we stayed in was spacious, comfortable and lovely to relax in. We truly felt that we’d gotten away from it all during our 2-day escape.
