8/10 Good

The property overall was fine. The only reason for 4/5 stars was the room was very small. The shower is very small as well. You have no room to move at all.
Michael, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

When I travel I love to stay at historic locations, this one did not disappoint. The hotel staff were so kind and helpful. The Barrister's restaurant was exceptional and so were the staff. Gourmet meals with southern flare, and great cocktails. A simple breakfast and coffee are provided each morning, except for Sunday. There is a nice Rotary built park on the back side of the hotel that was nice, as a Juntenth celebration was held during my stay. A great location just outside of Charlotte, but close to other cities that offer great activies to visit each day.
Cynthia Gregg, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This historical landmark is truly a treasure. As a history enthusiast, I appreciated that the hotel used to be a bank. It has a delightful charm and distinctiveness. The restaurant was excellent, and the staff were incredibly friendly. I look forward to my next stay!

Beautiful, Historic Property

What a beautiful historic property! The staff was so helpful and informed us of the history of the building. The view is amazing from the rood top terrace. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was a good size for a historic building. We plan to stay here again when we are in the area.

Brad, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Second stay. This one was for four nights. Bathroom sink drain got stuck. No room cleaning at all for four days, which seems a little odd. If the owners would make a little effort in enhancing the guest experience, this place would get 5 stars from me. Front desk staff needs some customer service 101 training.
Stephen, 4-night trip

Very unique hotel/building and a great find in downtown Gastonia.
Karen, 2-night trip

This is a historic property in the center of Gastonia. Beautiful view from the rooftop was suggested when we checked in. It was a fun place to stay.
Joseph, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A great hotel property that was a bank and has been totally refurbished. It has rooftop and main floor dining and drink options. Very nice rooms and beds, great sheets and towels, and the staff was very responsive when I had a question. I definitely would stay at the Esquire again!
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend getaway and the hotel room was very nice and cozy. Parking was easy and we didn’t have to worry about our car. Everything is close maybe a 8-10 min drive but all and all love the hotel. We’ll definitely be back
