Really nice unique hotel. The grounds are pretty and there are so many spots for small groups to sit and have a drink. Fire pits scattered all over. Would be so fun with a group of friends. Attached restaurant had a delicious breakfast. We were sorry we didn’t eat dinner there too. Will come back with friends hopefully.

A great place with a great location in the historic district. An easy walk to the Riverwalk as well as to many downtown restaurants and shops. Room was somewhat small but very clean and very well appointed.

Wondeful, chic hotel in Wilmington
This was the cutest little hotel. Wonderful location in Wilmington, NC and it is easily walkable to downtown/riverfront area. The room was gorgeous and very comfortable. The best part was being able to sit in the rocking chairs on the porch or down in the common area outside to enjoy their fire pits. The bar tender was very friendly and made great drinks. The hotel staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and welcoming. If we could stay here longer, we would have. Would definitely stay here again.

Boutique beauty
An old hotel property that has been revamped into a boutique beauty! Totally chill vibe: unpretentious, casual, and fun. Loved the social outdoor area and live music (on a Monday night!). Bartender John gets special mention for outstanding mixology, and the food was excellent too!
