We stayed here because the hotel we had booked lost our reservations and recommended the Rodd. I'm glad they did. They had a fruit basket at the desk that was empty the whole time we were there, but it has a nice quiet atmosphere and is near a beautiful park. The rooms are more kindly described as classic than obsolete. Ours was well-appointed and comfortable, but so cramped as to be inconvenient. The fixtures are dated. They were surely luxurious circa 1930, but the addition of a TV and modern amenities takes up more space than there is to spare. I can't comment on the restaurant as it appeared to be closing so we ate in the bar. The food was good enough to be memorable and the server was outstandingly efficient and friendly. All in all, this is a classically nice and quiet hotel for people who like atmosphere more than modern convenience and enjoy being treated as guests.
