Verified Reviews of The Federal

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Beautifully appointed hotel!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
We had a very pleasant stay at The Federal. The hotel has a modern and warm ambiance and is nicely furnished. We stayed just one night in a standard King room, which was inviting and immaculate with a very comfortable bed. Bathroom has a shower/tub combination with good water pressure. A very nice place to stay in Brunswick. We dined at the on site restaurant, 555 North, which served delicious food and we had a lovely experience all around. We will be back!
