Guild House Hotel

Wow! Loved the Guild House, the ethos and history, the sensitivity in creating bespoke rooms to reflect the New Century Guild women patrons. Our suite Eliza was amazing, spacious, clean, decor as appropriate to one of the founders of the guild but with all the mod cons. Extremely comfortable bed meant excellent nights sleep. The invisible service takes a bit of getting used to but is great, the attentive bit is via text and ensuring all is good. Location is good - short walk to Liberty Hall etc, some nice eateries near by and parking (expensive but necessary-staff there extremely helpful) is next door. I loved it here, felt right at home and very very comfortable.

The hotel is interesting and unique in that it is a historic building that retained much of its original flavor. There is only virtual service, i.e. no one is on site, but the connecting to the staff was easy via friendly text. They accommodated our last minute request for an hour later check out. We stayed in a room called The Florence, which was large and well appointed, however, there were no windows in the room. I knew that in advance and didn't think it would matter since we had plans during the day and thought we would only be there in the evening and to sleep. It was, however, very disconcerting to not have any contact with the outdoors, to know when the sun came up or whether it was raining etc. If we go back, I would not stay in that room again because of it.

Really spacious, incredibly well decorated , quiet, a wonderful sanctuary to relax in! This certainly feels like being in someone’s home with rich colors, great artwork, and a fluffy bed all around to sleep in. The bathroom is quite roomy and tiled. We were apprehensive about not having anyone on site, yet the staff was responsive to texts, immediately.

I tried this hotel because I had seen it in an interior design magazine. While the décor is nice, the hotel itself is lacking. For the cost, there are better hotels. Cons -It's a "virtual" hotel, meaning its really more of a bedsit or Airbnb. It also means there's no one to help you with baggage or to ensure common spaces are picked up after events. When I arrived, the main common room had clearly been used for some event and there was several trash piles and left over food around (although set neat piles). Not a great first impression. -It still has original windows meaning it was VERY drafty in February -My room was very dark, with most of the light bulbs in the chandeliers out. Pros -Large rooms -Very clean -Nice snacks and other amenities -Great location

Incredible housekeeping stuff. Gorgeous room and fun amenities. Perfect location. Did I mention the housekeeping? Wonderful people. More tech- (text-) centered than any other hotel, so no in-house staff. Works for my anxious and immunosuppressed self. Once had trouble with door not unlocking for me. I just texted for help and it was fixed faster than if front desk at a big hotel had to replace a bad room card.
