A Significant Experience
| | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : | |
The Jefferson Hotel is a significant architectural structure whose interior is an experience in elegance. The elegance experience is juxtaposed with a knowledgeable and friendly staff. I love afternoon tea and did have tea at the Jefferson. To my surprise the sandwiches were somewhat dry and a "room service" fee and gratuity were included. I suggest that you include the "room fee" in the cost of the tea and that you allow the tea-goer to determine the tip. I am also wondering how a hotel can be five-stars without a spa in the hotel. I certainly did enjoy my stay and look forward to my next visit.

Excellent Get-Away for That Special Occasion
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
Elegant yet very friendly and cooperative. Went out of their way to make our one-night stay special. The afternoon tea was lovely with a special touch for our anniversary. All services were excellent and timely from arrival to departure. Car service to and from the Cathedral was also timely and convenient for us. Restaurants ... excellent.

Worth It?
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : |  |
If you just want a place to stay, it is not worth it. You must take advantage of the amenities. The restaurant's food was some of the best I have had, but you must pay for it. Three courses and one desert with tip was almost $200.

Historic Tranquillity
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
This was our second stay at the Jefferson. When you arrive, it is hard to believe you are in a pretty large town, because the hotel is in a very quiet area downtown. It is an amazing hotel with beautifully historic architecture. We love the bar which is a bustling place around 5:00pm. Both stays have been during the Christmas season, which is probably the prettiest time to go. They make a lifesize gingerbread house in the lobby which is truly amazing. The rooms are beautifully furnished and the beds are wonderfully comfortable. The bathrooms are quite large for an old hotel and well equipped. The bed is turned down at night with a nice robe nearby. We love breakfast on the enclosed porch. Everything about the Jefferson, we love. There is a small museum in the downstairs lobby which is very interesting.

Historic Hotel

Combine history, elegance, architectural splendor with a friendly and gracious staff and you have perfection. The Hotel Jefferson is a grande dame from a bygone era yet is equipped with every modern amenity. Stay at the Jefferson and feel like royalty.

Great Stay - Minor Glitches Taken Care of Quickly
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
We had a great stay at the Jefferson over Thanksgiving weekend 2007. There were two minor glitches - heat didn't work in one room and our key card wasn't coded correctly, but both were taken care of in literally minutes. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms (standard) are HUGE for the $195 we paid per room/per night.

Room Accomodations
| | Overall rating: | | Value rating : | |
Our room was extremely hot and we could not adjust the a/c so the temperature in the room was lowered. We called the front desk and maintenance came and made some adjustments and said it would be cooler after a while. The room did not get any cooler during the evening and it was uncomfortable sleeping. I have stayed at the Jefferson several times previously and never encountered any problems.
