Beautiful. Elevators. Art deco. Service. Food. All above and beyond expectations. Only downside was the room thermostat that wouldn’t go below 67 degrees for a good night sleep. Too warm with the beddings.

This is a beautiful historic property with an exceptional French restaurant (Katherine's) on premises. Rooms are smallish, as you might suspect, but with the quirky Kimpton charm and high quality. There is no parking lot and a lack of on-street parking.

We really liked the hotel which is in a historic building and most of the staff was outstanding. Most of the people at the front desk and all of the people in the restaurant were just incredible. However, on Sunday, November 23, our room was not made up, and the front desk had asked if I had left the do not disturb sign on, I did not, and I asked for some towels and soaps, and told them not to bother cleaning it up as it was late. They sent nothing and said nothing and so when I left the next morning at five in the morning, I let the person at the desk know and he apologized, but that was it. I’ve been at hotels where this happens before, and they usually go way out of their way to Apologize and try to make things right. I did not get the feeling that anybody was terribly interested here. I rarely leave bad reviews because I know every company/person has a bad day. But here, I think more could have been done if they didn’t have somebody to give me towels or they didn’t have towels they could’ve called my room and let me know. Would’ve been fine. The restaurant was another story. They were most kind and really made you feel welcome.

The facilities at the hotel are nice, and the game room can be fun. I wish (personal view) that there was simply more lighting in hotel - the hallways, lobby, restaurant, etc. are fairly dark.

Disappointed this time.
I love the Cardinal and try to stay there whenever I’m in the area. This time, I found that the pillows were ROCK hard and so thick it was impossible to sleep. Our necks were very sore for the 4 days we were there. Still hurting! Mattresses were lumpy and room service mixed up our order 3 out of 4 times. The croissants were very stale, too. Housekeeping left the accumulating dirty glasses all over the room the entire time.

clean and classy with a neo historical/vintage vibe. rooms are unique from an interior decor standpoint. favorite thing about the room is there is a tub spout shared with the shower BUT a separate spout for a handheld. nice touches like that make it unique.
