What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors often praise The Hacienda for its stunning, meticulously restored architecture and the magical ambiance it offers, especially during special events. The staff's friendliness and helpfulness, particularly in sharing the venue's history, are frequently highlighted. However, dining experiences can be inconsistent, with some guests reporting disappointment with food quality during certain occasions, despite the overall charm of the location.
"I had the privilege of enjoying the Great Gatsby Jazz Night set menu with the Jazz Phil’s performing for the monthly first Tuesday event.
What an experience! The ambience was absolutely magical, the menu delicious, and staff felt like meeting old friends. I had a lovely time with my wonderful (but particular) family and service was immaculate.
Oscar was extremely attentive when I was wandering around checking out the beautiful renovations, and let me know about the cool tours offered. I will definitely be back to see what else this venue offers, and could absolutely see this as a fun place for a wedding venue, or big group vacation to do a takeover and get some stunning photos with the backdrops. Highly recommend visiting here!"

"What a cute and historic place to stay! We arrived on the day we thought we booked but apparently we were a week early because we forgot to change the reservation when a wedding date changed. Both Oscar and Margaret were absolutely fantastic in helping us figure out a way for our party to stay. They were accommodating with smiles the entire time even though it was our error. This could have put a damper on the entire vacation but because of their quick thinking and hospitality, we are looking forward to a few days of rest and relaxation. Thank you!!"

"This historical hotel was absolutely precious!!! Unfortunately it was a rainy day when we were there so we didn't get to sit in the courtyard around the fountain, But the rooms were very nice, and the atmosphere was great.They really did justice when they refurbished this hotel!!! There was a bar and someone told us they had good food.But we did not go to the bar or eat there.We chose to go out to one of the many little Specialty restaurants in the area. Newport richie is a fabulous place to visit!!!"
