I had a mixed reaction to the Tudor Arms. It was a great location for the Cleveland Clinic which was the reason we were there. It's a beautiful old hotel with a lot of character. Some areas needed a little more love and maintenance. We reserved a king room and in general the room was fine. It was clean and comfortable, except the only chair in the room was a desk chair -- so no other place to sit other then on the bed and the mirror in the bathroom was mounted so high I could not see in the mirror (I am 5'3"). Also the room had no refrigerator or microwave. When we checked out we asked if other rooms had a regular chair and refrigerator or microwave. The response was that if we wanted additional seating you needed to reserve a suite and if we wanted a refrigerator and microwave we only had to ask and they would have brought them to the room, who knew? The best part of the hotel was the shuttle drivers. Both were great and the afternoon driver even had suggestions for dinner and drove us there and picked us up. We had breakfast 2 mornings there. The first morning we ate early as we had to be at the Clinic. The breakfast was fine, pretty much normal standard hotel breakfast food -- definitely not worth $18/person, and not particularly warm. The second time we ate there it was a little later -- 9:00, breakfast ran until 11:00 -- and pretty much everything was empty. They did replenish some of it when we asked. We had dinner in the restaurant one evening and it was good. We're going to try another hotel in the area when we have to go the the Clinic again.
