Historic hotel with plenty of charm.

positive:

Pleasant and knowledgeable staff.

Whether it's helping with a query or telling tales of the hotel's colourful history - notorious bank robber John Dillinger was captured here - front desk employees are said to be pleasant and knowledgeable. Meanwhile, bartenders and waiting staff receive praise from the many revellers stopping by the hotel bars.

positive:

Negative Reviews

negative:

Noisy nightlife makes it difficult to sleep.

Travellers looking for a good night's sleep may wish to seek alternative accommodations. As the hotel states on its website, its central location and in-house bars make for a lively and noisy night.

negative:

Antique rooms lacking modern amenities.

By design, the hotel has foregone the inclusion of modern amenities in guestrooms. Travellers expecting a television, refrigerator or microwave will be disappointed. Additionally, guests report that electrical sockets are at a premium.

negative:

Small rooms with compact bathrooms.

Like any hotel that's approaching 100-years-old, Hotel Congress is appointed with rooms that are on the small side. This, coupled with the very compact en-suite bathroom, has led to some guests finding their accommodations to be uncomfortable.
