Frommer's Review

One of the nation's most distinguished hotels, this rambling white-brick Regency-style inn has played host to heads of state from 17 countries including Queen Elizabeth II; U.S. presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and Clinton; and lesser lights such as Shirley Temple. With giant floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the renowned Golden Horseshoe golf course, the Regency Dining Room features classic American cuisine (coats and ties are still required after 6pm). There are better restaurants here now, but the champagne Sunday brunch is worth a go (reservations are required). All of the spacious accommodations (suites range up to 600 sq. ft.) have lavish marble bathrooms with double hand basins and separate tubs and showers. All are exquisitely furnished with reproductions, books, and photos of famous prior guests. Rooms in a modern building called Providence Hall, adjacent to the inn, are furnished in a contemporary blend of 18th-century and Oriental styles, with balconies or patios overlooking tennis courts and a beautiful wooded area. The Inn's fitness center is in Providence Hall, whose guests enjoy the same privileges at those in the main inn. This is also a great golf resort, with three top-flight courses to play, including the noted Golden Horseshoe. A full-service spa is scheduled to open here in 2006.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; outdoor pool; 3 golf courses; 8 tennis courts; health club; spa; bike rentals; children's programs; concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; laundry service; wireless Internet access
