Hotel was very nice and informative about things to donm in the surrounding area. The room was nice, shower was amazing and bed was very comfy. We were disappointed about the rooftop area, it had an amazing view but was lack on chairs/lounging space as advertised.

My stay at the Brown Hotel was outstanding. Drinks at the Bar we're on point. The War Admiral was top notch and one of the best cocktails I have ever had. Restaurant was solid, breakfast, brunch and dinner were all great. The winning experience of the stay was the Chef's dinner with Chef Paul and his French Burgundy region inspired 5-course meal in combination with his selected wine pairings. Definitely will stay here again. Thanks Chef Paul and the Brown Hotel staff!
