"40th birthday party"

My experience at the hotel Fontaine has been nothing but spectacular! From the moment we booked the event working with Kaylie the events coordinator and finding the perfect space for 20 of us working with our budget and vibe, to meeting Lake at the front desk who gave me special bday vouchers, to the manager who took time to make sure everything went well, to our servers who not only provided amazing service and advice but also helped us decorate! Everyone we encountered went above and beyond. The food and beverages were delicious and provided the perfect variety and price point and the ambiance was everything I dreamed it would be! Lastly our room was beautiful and bed was very comfy. We would plan another event here in a heartbeat! Thank you all for making it so special for me! ❤️.
