Great people who work there! The best! My arms were falling off carrying all my coffees to the elevator and someone who worked for the hotel appeared at the elevator and helped me all the way into our room. Person at the front desk remembered me from our phone conversation days before! Bartender… 14 years of taking good care of people and counting ! Great neighborhood coffee shops!!

Lobby and bar are gorgeous! Staff was great. Our room was lack-luster. Dusty, rumpled carpet. Have stayed here many times and this time, the room showed some age.

It took over an hour and a half to check in. Hotel room was not clean and the hotel was “short staffed” so our room was not cleaned during our stay.

This is a beautiful hotel. Stunning art, beautifully designed and creatively crafted. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Plus the lobby smells wonderful! Can I give it six stars instead of just five?

The hotel has a lot of character. Great rooms, very comfortable bedding. Superb shower. Upon check in, they had no knowledge of our free valet parking. They said it was not in their system. But, the kind check in person Shay said she’d take my word for it and manually put it in their system. Nice bar area. Sadly no happy hour on Sundays.

The service was excellent. The people were great and very helpful. Food was also good and so was the cleanliness, but you could see that the hotel was starting to get a little rundown with burnt out bulbs bad paint jobs and a few other things. For a high-end hotel I would’ve expected the condition to be better than it was But otherwise overall nice stay.

The Iron Horse is a great hotel in the burgeoning Walker's Point neighborhood. It is in what was once an industrial area, and the hotel blends the industrial with the modern beautifully. We had a corner room, a Custom Deluxe King, which had plenty of room and was comfortable once we got the thermostat figured out. We had an event about 6 blocks away that we were planning on walking to. With the neighborhood described as "industrial", I was a bit hesitant to walk back at 10:00 pm, but the area has a lot of restaurants and businesses, and we felt very safe. If you have a car parking is an additional charge for valet services. The hotel has a restaurant for breakfast, but the Greige Patisserie is a nearby and a great option.
