Des Lux Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a gorgeous hotel! Every detail felt thoughtfully curated, from the classy design and upscale atmosphere to the beautiful little touches that made the entire experience feel special. It had that perfect blend of luxury, charm, and character. The icing on the cake was the Halloween décor! 🎃🕸️ They went above and beyond, creating such a fun, festive atmosphere while still keeping everything elegant. It was absolutely beautiful and made the experience even more memorable! The specialty drinks at the bar were excellent, too! 🍸 And a special shout-out to our sweet bartender, who was just as wonderful as the drinks she served. Great service always makes an experience that much better! A beautiful hotel, impeccable details, fantastic drinks, and the perfect touch of Halloween magic. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would absolutely recommend it! 🖤✨"

"Unfortunately the pool was closed for remodel which we didn’t know prior but the staff at the front desk was very helpful and let the kids have a treat as a conciliation. The shuttle was so convenient to have as a part of our stay so we could just enjoy our visit. Room was clean and it was nice they came in and brought fresh towels.

"What an amazing downtown hotel! We had a beautiful corner room on the 10th floor and absolutely loved our stay. The historic charm and attention to detail throughout the entire hotel were incredible. Everywhere we looked, there was something unique to admire. We only stayed for one night, but we truly wished we could have stayed longer! The hotel offers fantastic amenities and is within walking distance of so many wonderful restaurants. Valet parking was a great convenience, and every staff member we encountered was courteous, welcoming, and friendly. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be back for another visit. Highly recommend!"
