Great Location!
Cute place, friendly staff, and close to what we needed! My boyfriend and I stayed here the night of a concert at The Sylvee so it was nice to be within walking distance. Breakfast was delicious (fresh and not your normal hotel chain breakfast!). Was quiet and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay at Hotel Ruby Marie. The room was nice and breakfast was included. You also got complimentary drinks at the bar next door. All staff encounters were great. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location for walking into central capital area. Funky little bar and dining. If you want a soulful experience—ruby marie is for you. If you want sterile & predictable, go elsewhere. Otherwise, it was safe, comfortable, curious, and offered the right scale of experience.

Love the ambiance. Staff very friendly. Could use a second chair to sit in, in Room 25. Weather became very cold during our stay, and could not get room to heat up past 63 degrees. Also shower not hot at all. Brrr!

Beautiful room and bathtub, nice bed and spacious. Loved the vintage look and setting in the heart of the city. We went to a concert at the Sylvee which was only 0.3 miles away. Loved that we could walk and that there were restaurants and bars nearby.

The hotel is unique, historical but updated, and on a block with a few bar/restaurants plus a bar of their own. Our room was clean and spacious (they gave us an upgrade because they weren't fully booked), the bed was comfortable, and the shower pressure was great. I couldn't give the area 5 stars, however, because the hotel is right next to both a busy street and a railroad line which intersect, making it loud-ish from traffic and very loud when the train horn blows! They did thoughtfully provide earplugs, and we really weren't all that bothered by the noise, but we were surprised by it. Breakfast was provided, a few basic hot foods and an array of cereal, yogurt, fruit, etc. We received drink coupons for happy hour in the bar, but we ended up not using them.

The Victorian decor was to be loved. We enjoyed the jetted tub and the authentic pull to flush johns. The beakfast was great, especially the crispy bacon. Housekeeping was appreciated with new towels everyday. The location near downtown was strategical however if trains bother you, you shoud be forewarned.
