The lobby is gorgeous. The room was small but functional. Staff were incredibly sweet and helpful. Parking was a breeze. The only down side would be that the room was oppressively hot. Thankfully, we were able to crack the windows. Will definitely be our hotel of choice for future visits.

The Hawthorne was an elegant, friendly port in a snowstorm after we lost power at home. We were delighted that our dog could join us there, and the staff was warmly welcoming to all of us. The building and neighborhood are rich with Historic charm, the staff is attentive, and the tavern with its fireplace and beautiful wood paneling is a distinctive spot for a meal or a drink. Nathaniel would be proud.
