The Saint Paul Hotel

The Saint Paul Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Breakfast was tasty, service was okay, tried to serve me a meal including an item I had specifically asked to not have but was rectified when I requested it be sent back; beautiful property, lots of holiday spirit and entertainment; unfortunately, due to frigid weather, room was cold, windows are not well sealed/insulated. Dinner in the Saint Paul hotel was amazing and our servery Gary was engaging and enjoyable! I would definitely stay at the Saint Paul Hotel again!"
