Fodor's "You won't really believe you're in a castle at this midprice hotel, although the whimsical gold-and-silver spires... may make you feel as if you're having a Harry Potter moment." Full review
Gayot "Guests are greeted in the lobby with mosaic-tile murals, arched doorways, Renaissance-era music and piped in nature sounds, for what's just the beginning of a multi-layered storybook affair."
