Classy and clean renovations. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. It's conveniently located 1 block away from King street, which has a plethora of dining and shopping options. I was there on the weekend, so I parked on the street, which was convenient and free for me.

The Heron is a beautiful hotel. We stayed in the Heron King, and were very impressed. The bathroom, with real marble tile, a beautiful shower, and the provided soaps and lotions were amazing. We loved the Heron theme, down to the clothes closet with heron print, heron robe to use and even heron drink coasters. Rooftop bar is a MUST, we had cocktails there with a great view of the city. Ate breakfast in the Kiln, was awesome, with good sized portion, lots of bacon and really good sour dough toast. Free coffee in the lobby and very nice staff. It is a nice short walk to the restaurants and water front, Old Town is great to visit. We look forward to returning to the heron!!

Highs: Staff was friendly and offered good advice on the area. The bathroom and high ceilings made things more pleasant in the room itself. Lows: No-in room coffee maker. Rooftop bar menu and service were lacking. Road noise from Washington St. permeated the room until well after midnight.
