Fabulous Stay at Otter Hotel

The staff were amazing, kind and very helpful in assisting us with room needs and in coordinating touring details. The hotel restaurant is one of a kind in delectable creative selections. We enjoyed the variety of flavors and presentations. Waiters were helpful with recommendations.

High praises! Great stay!

We loved our stay at The Otter and would definitely stay again. It’s very conveniently located close to downtown and right across the street from a bus stop (bus pass included with your hotel stay). Loved the room, the hot pools & gym, the restaurant…nothing but praises. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
