Summary: I have nothing but praise for the night stay, the food and the staff at the Rising Sun. I had a couple of issues, but they were dealt with swiftly, discreetly and professionally. The room was beautifully decorated and the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in. The food was excellent and the overall experience was great. I have to give a particular nod to the two bar/hotel staff who went above and beyond to make our stay worthy of another visit.
