"Stayed here in April, Tuesday through Friday. The weather was mostly cloudy it comfortable. The hotel is about a .5 mile walk from the ferry terminal. It is off the main boardwalk but within walking distance to the Casino, the golf course, and the boardwalk. It is very nice to look at both inside and out, with a beautiful lobby. It is very well kept and upscale. There is the Bistro Atwater adjacent to the lobby serving coffee, juices, pastries, and breakfast sandwiches. We booked a spacious room with a king bed, comfortable enough, clean, and the room had nice AC, TV, and free WiFi. Our bathroom was fully enclosed, and the shower water pressure satisfactory. We noticed in the rooms with queen beds that the sink was outside the bathroom and the rooms smaller. I believe they list the sizes of the rooms. It was quiet and peaceful at night. The staff were friendly and attentive. Over the years I have stayed at the Hotel Mac Rae and the Glenmore Plaza. This is the best of the three. It is not inexpensive but they seem to offer deals in the off season. We loved our stay and will come again."

"Everything in Avalon is walkable, and the Atwater has been a haven for savvy travelers for decades, those who want to experience the restaurants and bars of the harbour area and then walk back to a quiet safe refuge. The room was not the largest, although it had a great view of the harbour. What it lacked in size it redeemed itself in cleanliness, comfort and amenities. The hotel bar is offsite, a few steps from the hotel at the Avalon Grill. Atwater guests get a $20 room credit to spend here. The place was built and created for the Wrigley family, they were no strangers to luxury and the finer things in life so to walk in their footsteps gives you an idea of the experience that awaits. Highly recommended."

"The moment you step foot into the lobby of The Atwater, you'll know you made the right choice. Beautifully decorated, excellent staff, especially Marissa at the front desk! Rooms are small and beautifully furnished. Nice linens and housekeeping on point. Perfect location with lots of perks when staying at the hotel. Definitely coming back!"

"Clearly location is the most convenient thing about the property but the wonderful staff also standout in the review of Hotel Atwater. Professional, courteous and kind is how I would sum up the staff."
