“The glamorous and historic decor was incredible.”
Worth knowing: They could probably upgrade their coffee in the rooms. Those pouches are never very good.
Convience to the Palace. Easy to park

“Nice old hotel close to the Palace where we saw a concert. Comfort of the beds was average. We would stay there again, particularly if we were going to another show at the Palace.”
Disappointing due to a very unprofessional hotel manager!!!

“The hotel manager who is black was very racist and rude to me. I am a white man. She insulted me by saying that I am too poor and unrefined to stay at a hotel at the Brown's caliber!!!!!”
Worth knowing: The historic beauty of the Brown Hotel.
Would def stay again, it is a beautiful historical landmark and very well kept.

“It was perfect. I had my first hot brown on Saturday. It was delicious, plenty of food even with the mini. Fresh and yummy. The bar at night was lovely, bartender was quick, friendly and a great service. There was also live piano music.”
