We enjoyed the beautiful courtyard with firepits and the gazebo bar. Our ground floor room was comfortable and nicely decorated. We had issues with getting cold water from the sink faucet and it was a bit noisy as you could hear guests walking above us. I would recommend staying on the higher floor if you can do the stairs. The location could not have been better.

Really nice unique hotel. The grounds are pretty and there are so many spots for small groups to sit and have a drink. Fire pits scattered all over. Would be so fun with a group of friends. Attached restaurant had a delicious breakfast. We were sorry we didn’t eat dinner there too. Will come back with friends hopefully.

A great place with a great location in the historic district. An easy walk to the Riverwalk as well as to many downtown restaurants and shops. Room was somewhat small but very clean and very well appointed.

This is a great small hotel ! We wanted a place close enough to a wedding that we could walk and this fit the bill. Arrive is so centrally located in the historic district that we walked to the venue in 3 minutes.The room, although small, was very clean and attractive and the bed, bedding and pillows were cozy and super comfortable. It was easy to use the valet to drop off the car and have it brought to us the next day. All the staff were very helpful and accommodating . While we did wish there was coffee in the room, as in every other property we have stayed at, there was a decent size mini fridge where we were able store our cold things. If you need a place to stay in the historic district, where you can easily walk to attractions and dining, I think you will like Arrive.
