   Awful. Converted ballroom into a restaurant. Buffet was terrible, food was u see lights so long dry and fish options were tasteless, hardly any choices for desert. $175 per person was the worst meal do not waste time or money.

   Fabulous Easter Brunch! Everyone had lots of favorites from the wonderful omelets to the lovely fresh shell fish to great carving bar ( that roast beef was to die for!); and last but not least, the very tempting dessert table. Service was great and the Easter Bunny is a nice touch. Kids and adults in our party all thought it was great.

   Great hotel, but this event was not The Hotel Bennett five star experience we expected. We paid a bill of $600 for two adults and two kids for food that was less than average in flavor. We had to find and ask a server for water and that was after we had already been well into our meal. We also had to ask for other drinks that were included. The server finally offered us refills when we were paying our bill. At that point we were ready to leave. Multiple items were almost empty. The cookies tasted store bought. The gentleman working the omelette station was visibly sick and coughing. He should not have been at work sick and especially not making food at an omelette station that sick as this likely will spread to others he made food for. The hotel was pretty and there was a very cute build a bear at the end of the event for the kids. But overall cost was not worth the price so won’t return for this event.

   The food was awesome! Wait staff was very busy, so not super attentive, but still good.

   This is a beautiful experience however, the price on OpenTable and the price on the website were very different. We will definitely be doing this again, but I will definitely be asking more questions to click a clear idea of what is in the details.

   I had high expectations since the Bennett Hotel is such a great place to stay…but was disappointed in the Thanksgiving buffet. The service was abysmal, and the food was just okay. It was one of those meals when you just wanted it to get over so you could leave, but then it takes 20min for the server to get your check after you request it and another 15 to bring your credit card back.

   A lovely Southern Thanksgiving buffet. The staff are first class and incredible kind. The hotel is a gem and the holiday decorations really heightened the sense of the season. I loved being greeted with a glass of champagne when we checked in. Everywhere we looked was another photo op. This is an experience our family will always remember!

    Hotel Bennett is absolutely beautiful. We went for Mother’s Day brunch and made the reservation for four people. The brunch was a buffet and it was not well stocked and the food was just OK. The bill came and it was $150 a person. It was my mistake to check. It would’ve been OK if the food was good and the onions in the room was basically it was a ballroom with tables and a buffet set in the middle. After having a mimosa each, we had an $800 bill basically for an omelette and a piece of prime rib
