Saint Kate - The Arts Hotel

Saint Kate - The Arts Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"My stay at Saint Kate was AMAZING! I wish I had the time to stay another night, but I will definitely return. Every detail of the Saint Kate was carefully thought out. Every. Single. Detail. I was impressed before I ever entered the building. The signage. The walkway. The lobby. The staff at the desk when I checked in. EVERYTHING! Then I went to my room and I love that it exceeded my expectations. Before I entered the room, the note outside the door was lovely. The room was larger than I expected. Each lamp was a work of art. The ukulele was a cute touch, as was the record player. Maybe I will play around with the ukulele next time. I got a late start, so I missed dinner, but I stepped inside to view the interior and it was beautiful. There was a couple standing next to me and they were impressed, too, as we admired the artwork. Then, the actual art exhibits...OH MY GAWD! I told my friends that we have to come back to this work of art that doubles as a hotel. I can't wait to return!"
