We stayed here. We loved it. It's a boutique hotel. Service was superb! So cool to be a part of this "different" experience. Location was great too! More

This hotel was great. Room was gorgeous and comfortable (although the bathroom was a bit unimpressive.) I have bedbug phobia, did a full search and found no evidence of any bedbugs. YAY! It was really moving to see how the community uses the exhibition space. We LOVED feeling like we were sleeping in an art gallery, I suppose we were.... More

We have stayed at this hotel several times - it is 70 miles from home and becomes a true destination for us. Everything about the hotel is perfect - the attentive staff, the contemporary art, the decor and the sensitivity of the renovation. This is a perfect place. More

We stayed at 21C over New Years' and had a wonderful experience. It's such an anomaly in terms of being a high-end boutique hotel with incredible art (particularly in this area) and it's incredibly well done. We stayed in a corner suite which was a great, spacious room with nice styling (in a pleasing, not intrusive sort of way) and... More

This is a very nice facility with interesting architectural features and decor. It is clean with a helpful staff but very expensive. However, had I known the hotel would present pedophilia masquerading as "art" I would not have stayed here. At the time of our stay, they were hosting the "art" (and I am using that term extremely loosely) of... More

Thank you for taking the time to write. Our founders’ goal in sharing contemporary art with the public is to stimulate thought and discussion and certainly not to personally offend. Alter Ego: A Decade of Work by Anthony Goicolea has been planned for several years and it was co-organized by the North Carolina Museum of Art and the Telfair Museums... More

The art? Well look up Goicolea - sick pedophilia is what we had to endure. And facility wise - nothing special. Go to the Gault House. More

We stayed there just after Christmas and had adjoining rooms with the kids. The hotel is truly unique and the art is just fascinating and a pleasure to experience. We found the rooms spacious and well appointed with a layout (an L-shape) foyer at the adjoining doors that gave us (the adults) a modicum of privacy even with the doors... More

We stayed here for a weekend in January. The lobby and gallery really are unique, impressive and welcoming. Staff was very warm and helpful. The new exhibit features only artist Anthony Goicolea's work, which unfortunately we found quite a turn off as it was mostly disturbing child sexuality/homosexuality images (just as his wikipedia profile describes). Red penguins are great fun... More

Loved this hotel from the time I stepped in. Very trendy, incredibly helpful check in staff! Andy checked me in and attended to any questions I had about the property. My room was extremely nice, large and very clean. The amenities were outstanding. This hotel would have gotten the highest rating from me except for one thing. Their work out... More

My husband and I couldn't get away to Mexico or the Caribbean over the holidays, so we decided to head anywhere "south" of Indianapolis for a long weekend. A friend of mine had strongly recommended the hotel and the restaurant located within the hotel called Proof on Main. I am so happy that I took her recommendation! Like other reviewers,... More
