"The Press Hotel nails the “old newsroom turned boutique” thing without the cigarette smoke or deadlines. Sharp rooms, great staff, and enough personality to make every chain hotel feel like a press release."

"Beautiful hotel, nice big rooms. Our front desk employee checking us in was great noticed we were right by the elevator and chose to move us to a quieter area which we appreciated. Nice gym area there as well. Only downside is paying for parking. Paying over 300/night-- overnight parking should be included. "
"Parking was convenient right behind the hotel. Room was spacious and clean with a comfortable bed. Love the location near excellent dining like Tandem Bakery and Chaval. Nice long walk down to the waterfront in under 1.5 miles."
"Beautiful old hotel. No elevator but that added to the charm in my opinion. The continental breakfast & staff were both great. Parking was tight but we were able to snag a spot in the back parking lot. "
"We had a great stay at the Press Hotel in October to celebrate a wedding anniversary. Staff were pleasant and knowledgeable and the location is great. Close to all we wanted to do. We did not dine in the restaurant but it looked lovely. The room we were in was nice and spacious with a comfy bed and really nice bathroom.
Our only complaint is that the heating/cooling in our room did not seem to work efficiently. We would set the thermostat to 66 to sleep and it would never get below 68 degrees in the room. However, the hallways of the hotel were nice and cool. We actually opened the window a few nights to let some crisp, fall air in. I did not notify the front desk but if I was there longer I would have.
When we are back in the area we will stay here again for sure."
