Stayed one night in a non-smoking room with a king-size bed. 8th floor with huge windows and a gorgeous view. Room was very, very spacious-- bigger than many studio apartments I've seen. Large bathroom, well-appointed, everything worked. Good water pressure and ample hot water. In-room coffee maker worked well. Bed amply comfortable. A/C worked well, easy to adjust. I had... more

The hotel must have been a grand place in its day. Like the rest of the downtown area of Utica, its day has passed. However, it still has some charm. I had a huge corner room, that had wonderful antique furniture. From a cleanliness point of view, the room was fair - seemed to have a faint musty smell. Bed... more

I recently visited the area on business and by chance was booked at the hotel. The building is in the center city and quite old, but the rooms and interior were comperable to any established city hotel I have stayed in. Service was excellent from check-in, from the staff in the bar and restaurant and at check out. The queen... more

Nice place, very large rooms and clean. Confusion at check in, couldnt get in our room until 6pm since the cleaning staff were not done yet, hotel was sold out the night before. Not alot of nicer hotels in Utica, paid $99.00 with a AAA discount and overall was very pleased with our 1 night stay. more

This roaring 20s hotel combines old world charm and is steeped in history. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt campaigned here in the 1920s, jazz... more

In NYC, this hotel would've been four times the price. Ornate lobby. Nice room. I'd go back if I'm ever in Utica again. more

We stayed at this hotel with our daughter for a college visit. The outside was fairly non-descript, but the inside was absolutely beautiful. You could see the place was burnished with history, and there were photos and other artifacts displayed to prove it. Judy Garland sang here? I believe it! Our room was HUGE- we all said it was the... more

As stated in other reviews the hotel is a beautiful turn of the century classic that has been reasonably restored to good condition. The lobby is grand and the rooms are nice but the good things stop there. Unfortunately the hotel has earned its two star rating due to lack of, or poor, service and a lack of facilities. I... more
