We live in this area, and for a birthday treat, my husband took me here for the night and a nice dinner in Sidney. We did not want to leave the room to go out for dinner! We realized we should have just picked up some food from one of the excellent local restaurants and stayed in.
We had a "Signature suite", overlooking the water. The view was fabulous, the room we had is well designed to take in every bit of the lovely view. The room had two baths, kitchenette and very comfortable living room area with great visibility. There was also a lovely balcony, although not very usable at this time of year, would be great in the warmer months. The Sunday morning yacht races started right in front of the hotel, so my husband was in heaven with his coffee and binos, doing the color commentary.
The full bath off the master has a lovely soaker tub, separate shower and separate w/c area. The bath products are very good quality.
Virtually no complaints at all (OK the bed was a titch hard, but that's personal taste, right??).
The staff are excellent- service was first rate, up to and including a lovely plate of truffles and a "Happy Birthday" message in the room when we arrived.
The hotel mascot, "Dave" the black labrador retriever is a joy to see in the lobby, doing his rounds and lounging on his bed. Any hotel with a dog in lobby is my kind of place.
Next special occasion, we're going back! Maybe not even a special occasion!
