10/10 incredible stay!!!
We had an incredible stay at The Walper! The staff were welcoming and accommodating as soon as we walked in the door. We were greeted by Juliet who was very knowledgeable and friendly helping us with parking, our room and even our dinner at the on site restaurant. It wasn’t just Juliet but EVERYONE on staff that were so kind even in the restaurant. We especially liked the text service, we needed wine glasses to our room and wanted late checkout and we were immediately answered and serviced through text. A lot of the reviews were complaining about parking however Juliet directed us to across the street where it was covered and free to park overnight (parking into Sunday). Overall we really enjoyed our experience, the room, the atmosphere the restaurant and the staff make us want to come back 10 more times. Thank you!

Our room was pretty cold despite setting it to 24 the heat never reaches that.
But the people were very nice they gave us a space heater to compensate.

The staff are kind and lovely. The parking is a struggle but the food in the restaurant is delicious. They just need to improve their standard operations. Recommend not ordering food to your room and keep your stay short and you will have a great time.

It was okay. However, there was hair in the black towel in the washroom, and the toilet paper wasn’t brand new; the roll was about to run out. This is the first time I've seen a hotel trying to save a toilet paper roll. I’m pointing this out not because I want some benefit or compensation but just for the cleaning team to do their best. Other than that, it was fine.
