The Emilie is a unique and wonderful hotel experience. The venue and service are high quality. The location is excellent by putting you in the middle of shopping, dining, history and entertainment. In just one evening, my spouse and I enjoyed shopping at the Night Market, Haunted Carriage ride followed by drinks at the hotel bar. This is a place that we’d highly recommend to singles, couples and families.

I enjoyed the dining areas on the property. I also appreciated the espresso machines and sparkling water/water stations on each floor. I did not enjoy having to relocate to a second room due to finding bugs in both of the beds in our initial room. That experience put a damper on the entire stay for myself and my companion.
