This hotel looks lovely and is nicely decorated. My room was fairly good sized and the king size bed was comfortable.
I travel on business frequently and while this hotel is not BAD, there were a few things that would likely prevent me from staying here in the future.
Primarily, this hotel apparently pumps some sort of floral fragrence into the common areas that I found to be intolerable. Not everyone would be bothered by this, but for me being immersed in fragrence every time I entered the lobby area was very unpleasant. Mind you, it was not a BAD smell- it was the type of smell that if a woman walked by and you caught a wiff of her perfume you might think "oh, nice fragrence" but I liken the experience to being trapped in a car or other confined space with the same smell. It frankly made me feel nauseus. Since I was there for 4 nights it was not fun. They also play rather loud music in the lobby at all times. When I inquired about the fragrence and the music, I was told the hotel strives to create something of a "nightclub" kind of feel in the lobby. Odd. I would much prefer a fresh, clean smell as opposed to a perfumey smell.
In additon, the hotel restaurant while the food was pretty good, has a bar area that is not particularly comfortable. As I dine alone often when on business travel it is nice to be able to sit comfortably at a bar. The main problem is that the lip of the bar is not deep enough so there is no room for your knees.
Parking is also very expensive as others have mentioned.
On the up side, there is a lovely restaurant called Mitchell's directly across the road that has great food and a wonderful warm atmosphere.
In summary, this is NOT a hotel that I WOULDN'T recommend to others, because there are a lot of nice things about it including helpful staff, however for the reasons above I personally would not likely stay here again.
