The Ulysses is such an incredible place! I’ve never before stayedin such a unique, historic hotel. The room was comfortable and kept perfectly clean. It was within walking distance to some great coffee shops. The staff was extremely kind and accommodated my very late arrival due to flight delays. Thank you!

We stayed in room 915, The II Gattopardo at Hotel Ulysses was absolutely stunning, with every detail beautifully crafted. The linens were custom-made, and the vintage pieces added a unique touch. The shower and freestanding bathtub were simply breathtaking. However, the room was really cold, and unfortunately, guests can’t control the heat themselves as the hotel manages the temperature. There was also no phone in the room, so I had to use my cellphone to contact the hotel. When I DoorDashed an order, I was told it’s hotel policy not to bring anything to the guest rooms, except for towels, though we didn’t need any, so I can’t speak to that. While the hotel excels in aesthetics, it falls short in providing the full luxury hotel experience. Having stayed at luxury hotels before, I expected the service to match the beauty, but I was disappointed. For $400 a night, I expected more than just complimentary coffee after check-out. Overall, the staff weren’t very hospitable. They were very kind but service was average. They didn’t offer assistance with our bags, and they seemed stressed, overwhelmed, and understaffed at both the Ash bar and Blooms. In summary, staying at Hotel Ulysses felt like going on a date with a dangerously beautiful woman, only to find you have nothing to talk about—underwhelming, but undeniably nice to look at.

This place was very nice. We only got to spend one night here. But we will def be back! Clean. Great staff. The place is not your average hotel experience. But it was cute and clean and friendly. The ONLY downfall is the parking. Had to park around the corner (2 min walk) and not on the property. But no inconvenience unless theres BAD weather. But we will def be back!

Nice place, but no temperature control!
The look and feel of the hotel was great and the staff were all very pleasant! However, you cannot control your own temperatures in your own room!!! We had told them on our first night that it was too hot and they had (initially) lowered the temperature. We woke up sweating and, again, asked the front desk to turn the temperature to 67. We came back that night and it was STILL too warm in the room. When we asked them to change the temperature again, they said that we were able to change the temperature in our room (not true) OR that we could text the front desk and ask for a temperature change. I texted the number immediately and received absolutely no response before checking out. Woke up the next morning and it was even warmer than the morning before. Would not stay here again!

Bathroom vanity was really small, just a sink and a ledge. Shower was long and arched and only adequate. A lot of things like the towel rack and the toilet seat were too high for me. I guess the bathroom was made for tall men not short women… the bed was ok. A lot of covers for the summer. I just used a sheet and I brought my own pillow. There are several little green lights that made it harder to sleep and the AC made a humming, groaning sound a lot of the time, even when I hadn’t adjusted the temperature. Also, there was this weird electrical disturbance around one of the bedside lamps - I unplugged the lamp but I kept seeing this flashing all throughout the night (I’m sure they would love people to think it was ghosts because it’s that kind of place). The lights are all dim (they will provide little lamps) and there’s like a sandalwood or cedar smell maybe? Also there are disturbing paintings of men about to murder naked women in the lobby. I’m sensitive to sounds, lights, and scents so this place was not for me for that reason but there are many reasons why I will not be staying here again.
