We received a complimentary upgrade to a suite, and our room was wonderful - spacious, clean, well appointed, and very comfortable. All the staff were friendly and willing to offer help. You also can’t ask for a better location when it comes to restaurants and bars. We walked to breakfast and dinner each night.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at The Commonwealth. The staff is amazing. The hospitality was wonderful. You can see they work as a team to make your stay comfortable and absolutely wonderful. The valet serive is quick and careful. Very grateful. I ordered the shrimp carbonara from the restaurant and it was so flavorful. I highly recommend. The bedding is great and the space is juuuust right. My friends had the doubke bed rooms and they were spacious! We had the comfy single bed room and it was great. Very decorative and clean ❤️

Loved the city vibe and feeling like I'm in a NY hotel without the hustle and bustle of the heavy traffic. Everything we wanted was in walking distance and a beautiful walk it was. Would definitely stay here again on our next adventure.
