The Ivy Hotel

I booked an overnight reservation for my husband's birthday celebration. The entire experience was unique and simply outstanding in every way! We were made to feel VERY SPECIAL by each and every staff member with whom we engaged. We were CONTINUALLY welcomed throughout the stay from the person who opened the car door and greeted us by name to the very knowledgeable concierges, the room service staff, the culinary staff, the bellman, the driver, Lottie Dottie and EVERYBODY! The hotel was very clean and beautifully adorned with pictures, books, furniture, plants and artifacts that told the story of the hotel. This includes the very accommodating bedroom with a comfortable canopy bed and a pristine, spacious and updated bathroom. One could ALWAYS count on soul-stirring music playing in the background of every public space. Each tune moved us to murmur the lyrics regardless of where we were and what we were doing. Ever had a snack attack? No worries! The room was well stocked with a variety of goodies and beverages to soothe those evening urges. And, finally, let me praise the food selections offered to us at teatime and breakfast. Homemade jam, almond butter, muffins, oat flapjacks, chicken sausage, eggs, and more! This was quite an awesome getaway! And, yes, we would do it all over again!

The staff at this hotel really make everything come together. They remember you from past stays, greet you by name on checkin, and anticipate your needs without ever being intrusive.

Hotel Ivy is superb in every way Gracious, elegant surroundings and accommodating staff. We also enjoyed the restaurant and a very relaxing massage at the spa

Live like a Lord in your own Manor House Did you ever want to stay in a gilded age mansion, and believe it was your own? Well, The IVY is just the place for you! Wonderful architecture and the ambiance is superb. Come and enjoy the champagne upon arrival in the fire place room, filled with exquisite plants and a touch of African culture..then waltz down the hall way to a gorgeous little room with enormous paintings and a libation station everyone will enjoy. There is wine, bourbon, gin, and fix your own is the order of the day...then you can relax and have tea in the large and sophisticated living room complete with murals of a cosmopolitan nature...then grab an exquisite art book, in the library area, hit the couch and enjoy your drink. You can have a great game of pool in the drawing room and don't forget to enjoy the wonderful art work and gorgeous antiques along with special treasures displayed perfectly. Each resident room is a treasure, from curtains to bedding, to soothing baths and complementary wine and cheese, you will feel like a Lord of you own manor. If you feel like hitting the town, no worries you've got your own driver. Magdalena, the restaurant, is one of the best in the city. Finally, the staff is so accommodating that you begin to feel like family before your stay is over...as I was told, that is the goal to make The IVY your second home away from home. Just give it a try and I think you will agree with me that this is a definite place to visit again and again in your travels.

The Ivy continues to deliver predictable good lodging experiences
