“The waterfront location here is undeniably compelling, placing you directly beside boat tours and a short walk from town amenities. Rooms, particularly those with corner views, capture the stunning river panorama and Boldt Castle. It feels like the kind of place you'd settle into for the season, especially given the attentive staff and well-maintained, updated interiors.”
