Such a beautiful resort hotel with history, grace and charm - coupled with gorgeous decor and a friendly and helpful staff. The sort of place that makes you feel special just because you are there! The King Parlor Suite we stayed in was spacious, comfortable and lovely to relax in. We truly felt that we’d gotten away from it all during our 2-day escape.

So expensive for little reward.
So over priced. I understand it has great history. But man the prices for anything ate outrageous. Plus only thing around is hotel. I personally wont do this trip again. For a couple it cost about 1000 dollars for 1 day.

The Elms is a beautiful hotel built in 1912 so it has an authentic early 20th century charm. It is architecturally beautiful from it's elegant main lobby to the curved upper seating in the Three Owls restaurant to the two story skylight in the main dining room; really a treat for the senses. The food was very good at the restaurant and while we were there they put on a Thanksgiving buffet that was very well attended and held in the beautiful main dining room. The rooms are small by todays standards but in top condition. The beds were particularly comfortable. The pools and hot tub were beautiful and clean. The weight room was well equipped with lots of machines and some free weights. The staff was professional and attentive. We were there during a snow and the grounds crew had all the side walks clear and salted before day break! This place is a jewel in the heartland of America, well worth the time and money if you are in the area.

A RESTFUL WEEKEND
The Elms is a great hotel. The SPA is spectacular. We were happy with the room. A disappointment was that the indoor pool was being repainted during our stay but the management did make it up to us. I would definitely stay there again as the SPA, the grounds and staff were wonderful and helpful.

We did not have hot water for two days, like warm. The offered remedy was 10000 Hyatt points. Kinda weak! I also thought the hotel looked tired. Food at the restaurant for dinner was excellent, lunch not so much.
