Nice place
I really enjoyed my stay here. My only complaint is the heater is VERY LOUD but over time you kind of get used to it.
Jackie, 1-night trip

Quiet & Comfortable - in Style
Perfect quiet stopover on our trip south. Convenient location, comfortable room, lovely restaurant, friendly staff, all in an interesting architectural setting of the old First National Bank of Gastonia.
Renate, 1-night trip

I had the best stay! Restaurant onsite may it great!
Sharon, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Charming, but small
Hotel is in a former bank in a very convenient location. Easy, short walk to a couple of restaurants. The rooftop gives nice views of your surroundings. My only issue is the room size. As soon you open the door you’re at the foot of your bed. Very, very small, but clean, rooms.

Nice hotel!

Historical
This was a Historical hotel but with all the upgrades in all the rooms.
Jack, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The time I spent at the hotel was very relaxing and if anything was needed the staff was very accommodating. I will definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends. And I will be coming back again to stay in the near future.
Antonio, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice stay
The only suggestion I have is to have some fresh food available for breakfast for those of us who are vegetarian. The hotel is really unique and attractive.

Nice change from the standard corporate hotels. I recommend it.

Great place in downtown Gastonia! Only 15 min from Charlotte Douglas airport.

A brief stay, wish I had more time to enjoy. Old style building with updated comfy rooms. Had a corner room so I enjoyed views from 2 directions.
Linwood, 1-night trip

Staff is friendly. Facility is very clean.
INWAN, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was charming. The downtown area lacked the tourist attractions that would have made for a better experience. Not many people in the area and not many businesses to attract visitors.
Joseph, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice clean rooms, no carpet which is a good thing. Nice restaurant at dinner The only negative note is the breakfast, definitely improvement is needed at morning breakfast. Thank you
Diego, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Thumbs up!!
Rooms are small and consequently there was no room for a chair. The bed was very comfortable though. Hotel was very clean. Staff was very cordial and helpful. We would stay there again. Historical building. Much of the key esthetics have been preserved. English paneling in the elevator. Very tastefully decorated

I love this hotel! This was my second stay here and let me tell you i have no complaints whatsoever! It is a very clean place and te staff was awesome! The restaurant is very nice and equipped with a nice bar, even tough i dont drink. Parking was easy and close to the building. It was very quiet and cozy for the most part. I would definitely stay here next time im in town!

The room could’ve used a microwave
lioinel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing stay! We grabbed dinner at the restaurant downstairs because it was convenient, and wow, amazing!! Staff was great. Saw other reviews saying the rooms were “small” but didn’t find that to be the case. Super clean, and comfortable bed. Loved the history and build of the hotel. Will definitely be staying there again if we are anywhere in the area. Only negative had nothing to do with the hotel. Woke up to sirens a couple of times…. Again, nothing to do with the hotel. Highly recommend!! (hotel and restaurant)

I was worried when I walked into the lobby. It smelled a little funny and was small and uninviting but it was actually a really nice hotel. I thought the guest room was great and beautifully done.
