Nice hotel in a great location. All the amenities are very convenient, I appreciated the pool and sauna. Outdoor facilities, including pool and hot tub, require significant cleaning and updating, including vacuuming the bottom of the pool and treating for bugs and ants,

Our room was small and ver outdated. This was the most expensive room I booked on my whole trip, so was disappointed. Hotel has some charming qualities, hot tubs and pools were delightful, but didn’t care for the room.

Cool vintage hotel with a nice restaurant and pools. A bit of an older building so not super sound proof. Our room faced the Main Street and there was some noise from cars driving by and other guests. The room was also very small, it was hard to open up our luggage and move around the room. Staff was very welcoming and room was clean.

Only problem with my stay was the incredibly loud music from a concert at the Sir Howard Morrison Theatre across the road. Other than that would be happy to stay again when no concerts are on!

Prince Gate provided a warm welcome at reception and during our stay. The hotel is in great condition & our room is nicely appointed. A nice touch last night was a pianist playing in the entry. when we returned from dinner. Overall the hotel lived up to its 4.5 rating.
