Everything about my stay at the gorgeous St. Cecilia was just perfect. The staff are next level and made sure that my every need was taken care of. I can’t wait for my next stay. Thank you for a most memorable birthday weekend!!
I can’t say enough good things about our stay here. We stayed in Suite 1 and it was absolutely amazing! The property is great and the location of perfect and walkable to many cool restaurants and shops on Congress. Would absolutely stay here again!
Perfect urban getaway tucked just off of South Congress. If you appreciate old homes with character, and want to feel like you’ve stepped back in time while having modern amenities, this is the perfect place for you!
We had a mostly pleasant stay. The staff was courteous, and our room was very nice and clean. The property itself is beautiful and well maintained. The burger and fries were amazing — definitely a highlight!
That said, the air conditioner in our room wasn’t cooling properly, and the temperature never dropped below 74 degrees, which made it uncomfortable at times. Also, the bartender had a bit of frantic energy and the espresso martini unfortunately missed the mark.
Overall, a lovely property with great food, but a few service and comfort issues kept it from being a perfect stay.
One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. Loved everything. Only complaint is that the pool was too cold. It didn’t stop me from swimming but it would have been much more enjoyable if warm. Other than that, the hotel was amazing and we will definitely be back!
