D'Youville College Tours and Activities

We heard about this property from friends. The fact that they repurposed the old State Insane Asylum was unique, but they have turned it into a wonderful property and preserved the memories of many of the patients who stayed there! We loved it. Also the breakfast was moderately priced and excellent quality.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Hyatt Regency. Coming from Canada, I was a little apprehensive about the local reception. Everyone was very kind and helpful. The hotel is extremely well located, Make sure you explore the area right outside the back door before going elsewhere as there are a no of very nice pubs, breakfast places and restaurants within steps. I only discovered this on my last day. Nearby, the International market was interesting with its culinary choices and it has a huge bar. The theater district looked amazing but the season hadn't started. Will return for this. Had breakfast at the Streetside Brasserie - it is a happening place. Right behind the hotel is a delightful plaza with some old, historic buildings. The hotel itself has an expansive, glass roofed lobby area, and a great pub - also a Starbucks inside. The staff are very patient, especially the people at the front desk - the valets are nice too. The room was huge - much bigger than what I expected. Adam's market nearby has beer. The liquor store is a drive. I really liked Buffalo. It is a small but charming town. Lots of good places to eat. More like a relaxed, easy vacation spot. The theater district looked amazing. Cananduigua is a short drive but it was not as nice as places in Canada, honestly. The pizza place (Coho) was a high point though. Enough with the tariffs and the ridiculuous renaming of places just to spite us. Places like this would be a lot ore visited by us without this.
