The staff were all incredibly courteous and kind. They brought a microwave to our room when I got sick at the restaurant and needed to reheat food. Breakfast pastries get delivered to the room and the turn down service went above and beyond. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for somewhere clean, safe and very comfortable!

The rooms were very spacious and nicely decorated, great location with great views of the downtown area. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, loved the coffee and pastries that were brought to your room, if you wanted them and also their turn down service with truffles and soft music. The wine, cheese and crackers were at great touch also during their happy hour. Definitely will stay here again!!!

Beds and linens were comfy, breakfast pastries could have been fresher (and coffee hotter, staff was very nice. There’s a lot of nice dining options downtown but if you’re a light sleeper, you’ll need earplugs with all of the emergency responders driving by.

We stumbled on this hotel after needing to cancel at another one for reasons I won’t get into here. They have a happy hour with wine and snacks at 5pm each day, coffee and breakfast in the morning, a turn down service with chocolates, and these heavyweight bathrobes that are a dream. The rooms are beautiful and decorated with local artist creations. We loved every minute of our stay there.

Our stay at Hotel Donaldson exceeded our expectations. The hotel is quiet and well maintained. Our room was modern, spacious and clean. The staff is very kind and helpful. There is a nice happy hour from 4-5. They end the evening with prepping your bed for the night and leave truffles as a bedtime treat. In the morning they will bring coffee and pastries to your room at your requested time. Overall a lovely experience and look forward to staying there again.
