The staff, hotel, restaurant and room were excellent. The only downside was the noise from people leaving the rooftop bar until 2AM. We will be back and ask for a different room at the back to buffer us from the loud partiers.

This is a find! Lovely people on staff- every one of them. Beautiful spacious room and bathroom. Ideally located across from a park and the waterfront. Restaurants, shopping and entertainment nearby. Only 18 rooms, so you get plenty of quick attention if you need it. Can’t think of a thing I’d change!

Excellent staff, now the rooftop party lasted until later in the night but we played music in our room to distract us. Also the valet parking was a little difficult coming in. Lovely room, could use a lock on the bathroom door to keep it closed.

The birchwood is in an excellent location and the bar is really nice. Things that could use some work: The hallways smell humid and the walls are a bit thin (It doesn't help that people aren't very caring and slam their doors when people are still sleeping). Also, maybe hold the cleaning until 9? They start early and wake you up.
