The Stoneleigh is a beautiful hotel. I'd recommend it if you have the $$ and a car. We didn't have a car and found nothing of note (cafes, stores, etc...) within walking distance, except for a pretty good bar, also called the Stoneleigh, across the street. Its a $10 - 15 cab ride to downtown, which worked for us.
Staff was extremely attentive except when you needed something-- like a decent map or your suit to be pressed on time. Two hours after my suit was supposed to be pressed and returned, I called and asked them where it was, they said it would be done in 30 minutes. Obviously they haven't started. They had a whole day to do it.
Rooms are spacious and really nice. Restaurant seemed to be gouging, with a pastry costing $4.
