The stay was nice, but we did notify the front desk that our bathroom did not seem like it was fully clean because we found a lot of what looked like little hair as though some one had shaved their beard or something all around the bathroom. Other than that the room was nice the valet was extremely nice and helpful!

It’s a historic building with 130 years of history based on the staff’s words. The hotel is well maintained, the room is spacious, very close to the convention center, lots of restaurants or pubs close by. Great hotel to stay.

Our first night we arrived late and went straight to bed but the street noise was pretty bad so we didn’t get much sleep. This was my fault as I insisted my wife book a street view room. I went to the front desk in the morning to see if they could help us out and they bent over backwards to get us moved to a different room that was courtyard view and also bigger. We had a Fantastic stay after that and would stay in this hotel again anytime.

Fireplace issues. There was an open flame ( pilot light) with no glass in front of it. I easily saw a child or adult mistakenly lay a towel or other flammable object next to it. Other fireplace issue: we couldn’t use it the end of the bed was two feet from the fireplace. You would have to sit on the end of the bed and hang your feet over the edge of the bed just to see it

This has been the worst experience I’ve had with Horton grand hotel. Check in was the only easy part. However once in the room, bathroom had a really bad odor. The bathroom smelled like mold. It was definitely not cleaned in what seems like a really long time. The bathtub had grime and dirt all along the lining of the tub which I didn’t discover until the following morning. The experience only went down hill from that. Towards the early morning around 5-6, we were woken up by the sound of a waterfall. It had been raining heavy that night. Huge amounts of water started coming down from the ceiling fan, quickly spread all over the beds and carpet. I called the front desk and was told someone would come by to check it out. Waited and waited, no one ever came by. I decided to go to the front desk myself at the 3 hour mark. The receptionist said she had sent someone and was puzzled that no one showed up. Surprise surprise, when I asked if she had followed up with said person, of course not. I asked to speak to a manager and reception said they weren’t available, probably having a meeting about the water leak. I almost fainted when she said that LOL. You would think the customer would come first. You would think they would offer to move us to another room. Of course not. No one thought about the person who called about the leak. The poor excuse I got was no more rooms. I’m only happy I didn’t have to pay for anything of it. Will most likely never stay at the Horton again.
