“Crescent Cottages are wonderful!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed at the Cottages at the Crescent. We had an upper cottage and it was beautiful! Sits in the woods looking off into the Eureka hills. Huge deck, two nice bed rooms with queen beds, two clean and big bathrooms, a nice fully stocked kitchen and a living room with fire place! We didn't want to leave our cottage! We loved the ghost tour, Sunday brunch and the New Moon Spa was to die for! What a great and relaxing time at the Crescent! We will be back soon for our next girls trip!

“Beautiful but rundown”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I absolutely love the atmosphere of the Crescent Hotel but the hotel is very run down. I love going there but leave upset that I paid a lot of money for an very average, run down room. I love the old tiles in the bathrooms and the old windows but the carpet needs to be changed, the rooms need to be repainted and the rooms need a fresher, clean look. It would takes millions to renovate the entire hotel which is what it needs. I would like to see it go back to the splendor that it was when it first opened and not so much emphasis on the "Dr. Baker" era. Great atmosphere, pleasant staff but run down hotel with luxury price.

Thank you for your review. The hotel is over 125 years old and the history is a very important part of what makes the hotel so superb. We are currently updating several of our quest rooms as well as other amenities in the hotel. I hope that we can improve your opinion in the future.

Thank you for your review and we are glad you enjoyed you experience here at the Crescent Hotel. It is know to be a haunted hotel and hope the ghost did not scare your friends away. The New Moon spa is so wonderful and we are glad you were able to enjoy it. Hope to see you in the near future.

“Night at the Crescent Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

When I discovered the third most haunted hotel in the US was practically in my backyard, I had to go stay. The hotel is amazing when you drive up and inside is like stepping into the 1900's. If you like old architecture, antiques, history, and beautiful scenery, this is the place to stay. My best friend and I were able to get Dr Baker's room on the 5th floor with a stairway to the bedroom on the top 6th floor. Our decor was more 1940 compared to other rooms we got to see that had beautiful antique beds and furniture. Our view from our room was breathtaking. The hotel has a free shuttle to downtown which has loads of shops and dining. That night we took the ghost tour and learned about all the paranormal things that happen here. We got pictures with our cameras of "orbs" and glowing green spots that looked like eyes of an animal. Around 2 am we went ghost hunting and met the couple staying in Room 218, the most famous room in the place. We showed each other our rooms. We all got pictures of orbs all over our room. Weird! We slept with the shades drawn and lights on. We had unusual things happen around us that I explained with possibilities that weren't spirits. Who knows? Quite an experience I doubt I would find anywhere else.

We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your review. We are glad that you were able to experience two of our very unique rooms. The ghost tour and midnight theater are both wonderful attractions we have that add to the experience. Thanks again for your review and we hope to see you in the near future.
