Delicious Dining Experience

“I dined at the Proof restaurant inside the hotel and was not disappointed! The pizzas were absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy. I particularly enjoyed the friendly service, as the bartenders went above and beyond to provide great suggestions for non-alcoholic drinks. This dining experience was a great way to unwind after a fun day exploring the area.” view full review

Art & Entertainment Galore

“One of the highlights of my stay was the artsy vibe throughout the hotel, especially in the lobby. The Art-o-mat machine was a unique touch, letting me purchase art in the form of small, collectible pieces. It felt like a good blend of staying in a hotel and visiting an art gallery!” view full review

I had a truly amazing experience at Saint Kate. The hotel is a vibrant oasis filled with art and unique decorations, and the live music added a special touch to my stay. However, there were a few hiccups during breakfast when they ran out of some items, and the coffee situation could use some improvement. Overall, it offers a fantastic artistic atmosphere and is a great place to unwind, but there are minor areas that could use refinement.

Overall, it was a decent experience, but it left me wanting a bit more for the price.
