My stay at the Edwardian Hotel was quite mixed. The location is super convenient with public transport right at the doorstep, but the room I had was pretty cramped and didn't live up to my expectations. Although the staff were friendly and helpful, the room itself left much to be desired in terms of comfort and amenities.

Rooms

My room was on the small side, literally no room to swing a cat. The bed took up most of the space, and there were some old upkeep issues like a non-functioning TV plug. The bedding felt dirty and I had to contend with a cold bathroom and a weird heating setup that I couldn't control.

I found the facilities to be basic, with no extra amenities like a mini-fridge or microwave in the room. There was a working elevator, but it didn't provide much for comfort beyond that.

I enjoyed my stay at the Edwardian Hotel, which skillfully combines modern touches with the charm of its Edwardian heritage. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel well taken care of. however, the noise from Market Street was noticeable, especially with the single-pane windows. Overall, it's a great option for those looking for a central location and a budget-friendly choice.

Rooms

The rooms were clean and well-maintained, although they are a bit quaint and small, typical of an older hotel. the decor had modern and retro elements which added a nice touch. Still, the single-pane windows let in quite a bit of street noise, and I experienced some minor inconveniences with heating during my stay.

The staff was exceptionally warm and accommodating. I appreciated how the manager provided tons of useful information about local attractions and restaurants. They even kept my luggage safe for the day after I checked out, which was really helpful.

Location

The hotel's location is excellent, right near a major metro station and close to several tourist attractions, such as Union Square and Chinatown. but I did notice some sketchy happenings outside at night, making it a bit unsettling if you're out late.

Dining

While I didn't dine extensively, the breakfast at the nearby cafe looked appealing with crisp salads and a good selection. the lobby also offered some snacks, which was a nice bonus.

The hotel features some charming older facilities, including a vintage elevator. however, everything felt a bit cramped in line with the Edwardian style, and be prepared for the typical quirks of an older building.
