Love The Narrows
The Narrows was such a unique hotel. Although it is near the airport, it feels very secluded and quiet. The breakfast was simple, but so good!

The rooms have really nice charm and are large. The bathrooms have a standing shower stall and a separate bathtub too. It is right off Highway 21, near the airport, so the only negative would be the noise from the truck traffic. The property landscaping is nice too.

Would stay again
Nice quite place to stay, although a small conference was on while we were there. Stairs are a problem if you have mobility issues or heavy luggage. Free parking but down at the bottom of a hill. Could be cold in winter as it has steel framed windows that don't seal all that well (i.e. drafty gaps). We would stay again mainly because it suits ours needs and is close to family who live in Hamilton.

Wonderful staff who accommodated our very late arrival. Room was clean and well appointed. The having to go up a few steps to get into the bathroom took a little getting used to, but when you know the history of the building it was understandable. Great place, I highly recommend it.
