We understand that this is the oldest hotel on the island. It has lots of rich history which we enjoyed learning about. We stayed in a deluxe Lakeview room. The view was wonderful. The room had the look, feel and furnishings of an older hotel; which is what we expected. Our room was close to the staircase and we could here people ascending and descending the stairs. There is not much insulation between rooms or floors, so we could here conversations in other rooms. We were woken several times by the sounds coming from the room above us (walking, toilet, chairs sliding, talking.) The 1852 restaurant was very nice and the food and service were excellent. Be sure to walk back to the Ice House located behind the hotel. It's where the pool is located and home to a more casual restaurant and bar. We really enjoyed our time here and would recommend it.
