Beautiful hotel in a perfect location. Restaurant and courtyard were great to eat, drink, do a little work and get some sun. Gym is adequate for a quick workout. Walking distance to the harbor, bay, and all the great food and drink in town along, with historical sights. Staff was great.

Have stayed at Emeline numerous times. Great location and nice rooms. Front desk, especially Nicole, are friendly and extremely accommodating. The valets, Mark, Philip and Kahron were excellent. The car was readily available and they were as friendly as could be. The only issue was housekeeping. They forgot to clean our room and unfortunately the housekeeping has always been an issue.

The Emeline was located in the perfect location right next to the Market making it easily walkable to everything downtown. The courtyard was an excellent place to enjoy a night cap. I do wish I had upgraded our room. It was very small. We barely had room to put our luggage and walk around. Bedding was comfortable.
