The hotel was beautiful with all the pretty Christmas decorations.. Lovely room with pretty furnishings. The staff was extremely friendly and went out of their way to help with all requests. Very much appreciated.
It is a very old building and the rooms haven’t been updated. There is no temperature control in the room. It was 20 degrees out and I slept with the window open and the ceiling fan on and a sheet. There is no sit down breakfast until 11am. Before 11, there is literally a closet that has cold cereal, instant oatmeal and a kuerig. There was no staff to check me in and no staff on to check me out. They had a sign that said- we’re closed. My room was on the 4th floor - no elevator except an extremely old one that only staff could use.
Restaurant is excellent. Staff is friendly. Room has no individual control over heating. Room was soo hot even with a fan they provided it was hard to sleep

Disliked: Staff & service
There wasn't a breakfast. On the 2nd floor they had a couple packages of mini donuts, instant oatmeal and a couple of oranges and apples. Breakfast was offered on the website. A few years ago when we stayed it was a full breakfast at the restaurant.
The Denver General Hotel is a beautiful historical building. They were just begining to decorate for Christmas and it was so nice. Great location in downtown Wilmington. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Room was small but perfect for our needs. Very clean. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast was a nice continental breakfast. We are planning on staying again next time we visit.
The room was spotless and ever so cozy. The most friendly staff I have met in along time. The breakfast area was well stocked.

All the info online made it seem quaint. It wasn’t. If you need to use the elevator before they open for the day, you can’t. Room was ok. Bathroom looked like it was added as an afterthought.
Our stay at the General Denver was really made special by the staff - both at the hotel and the restuarant. The service and the food were excellent. We also loved how walkable Wilmington is - we had breakfast and coffee at Kava Haus and it was phenomenal. A 10 min walk from the hotel, it was perfect for working off that cinnamon roll from the Kava Haus.

The room was advertised as a king size bed room and it was 2 twin size mattresses pushed together. We did not end up staying and left.
We loved our stay at this hotel! It was much more spacious than we expected, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The decor was charming, and the bed was very comfortable—we slept so well. It’s a beautiful historic building and made for a wonderful stay.
What a charming place! We found this little gem and so happy that we did. Typically don’t stay at a hotel that doesn’t have a pool for the kids, but it was a one night stay and figured they wouldn’t have time for swimming anyway. So glad that we chose it. Staff is super friendly. We ate at the restaurant and the food was amazing! Cocktails were delicious. Our room was cute, we traveled with friends and our room was like a little apartment. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom. Cute little living room. Beds were super comfy and we slept very well. Breakfast was a grab and go, plenty of options to pick from. I hope we find a reason to come back.
We needed to check in a little after thr check-in time, but the team was willing to work with us and accomodate our delayed arrival which I appreciated. The room was nice, though I did feel a bit awkward having a connecting door to another room. I'm not sure if all the rooms are like that.
It's a nice hotel if you're looking for a scenic place to stay. We understand it's considered an historic property, but it could use some updating especially with regards to ease of charging mobile devices and air conditioning
Hotel is just lovely and has an attached restaurant that is fabulous! We will absolutely stay here again!!

Paper thin wall between our room and the next! Very small room such that we banged into furniture. Love the historic building, but I might consider somewhere else on future trips to the area.
The General Denver Hotel is a historic site. It looks like an old ski lodge. We find it to be very cute. There is a restaurant and 2 bars downstairs, the food, drinks and service are really good. This is our go to place when we are in Ohio for tue ren faire.
