This is an old hotel. I had to take 2 different elevators to get to the room. I wouldn't call it a 4* hotel, 3.5 is more like it. Difficult to navigate the property, long hallways, steep stairs, easy to take a wrong turn. Didn't like the dingy work out room, very poor exercises equipment. When we checked in they had us in a room with one queen bed.<BR/> We had to pay $30 per night to upgrade to a suite, and it still only had a queen bed, but at least it had a pull out sofa in a separate room. The bathrobes were nice. Bathroom is old and could use refurbishing. The club level we were on came with drinks and a light snack from 4:30 to 6:30, we made sure to be there to get our &quot;upgrade&quot; moneys worth! Oh and when we went to get a cab to the airport they asked us if we wanted to use their town car, they said it would only cost $5 more than a cab. We said yes, but when we got to the airport the driver charged us more than the hotel quoted and would not budge. So I paid him and then called the hotel. They were great in that they said they would get the car company to take half of our charge off the bill. I haven't seen the credit on my account yet but I did appreciate the hotel's response.

Positives: I liked the bathrobes. The TV in the suite was nice, had to pay to upgrade though.

Negatives: Queen bed instead of King. Old, had to use 2 different elevators to get to room. Bad exercises room.

The staff was extremely helpful and eager to assist. The hotel has undergone a recent refurbishment and the lobby and guest rooms were well appointed.

Positives: The hotel was very helpful.

Negatives: No coffee pot in the room although free coffee was available in the lobby every morning.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 29 Jan 2010 rated 10 out of 10.

Hotel is close to what you go to the city for. We just left the car and walked the city in the nightlights, a very nice irish pub right around the corner, it all worked out very well. thanx, and we will stay again.

Positives: Very old, but very well maintained, right downtown.

Negatives: We enjoyed everything.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 09 Jun 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, but the room was extremely small and was not a reflection of what I saw on the hotel's own website. I was disappointed to find out that a 4-star hotel did not have a pool or spa. Housekeeping knocked on the door at 9:00 am which seems really early. On a positive note, the bed was really comfortable.

Positives: The staff was very friendly and the beds were very comfortable.

Negatives: The rooms are very small. Mildew in shower area. Hotel's website is misleading as to what rooms look like. No pool.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 02 Jun 2009 rated 3 out of 10.

Not worth a 4 star rating at all. Will never return to this hotel.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Small rooms. Wierd smells. Small bathrooms. Elevators smelled.

I would recommend this hotel if you are a couple. The rooms are a bit small for more than 2 people. It is in prime location--everything is walking distance. The cable cars are right around the corner. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. They were great! The hotel is very nice and clean. We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel.

Positives: Very friendly employees --very helpful.

Negatives: Room was a bit too small for family of 3.

Clean and quiet with a helpful and friendly staff. The breakfast was great with lots of choices. The hotel is easy to get to from public transportation and located near shop, restaurants and tourist destinations. A great experience overall. I would love to return when NOT on a business trip.

You would think that with the 4 start and the clean interior they would have put a bit more money into the beds for the room. Our bed was extremely uncomfortable - I was not able to sleep all night. In addition, our sheets had stains on it, and holes in it. Not 4 star quality.

Positives: Very friendly staff.

Negatives: The bed was very uncomfortable - you could feel each spring, it was so terrible.

Location is good, other than that nothing else good to say. This is not a 4 star by any means. Rooms are unattractive and small carpet was coming off of the floor in our room bath tub took 20 minuets to drain after showering. Also expensive valet parking 45.00 a day other hotels where 35.00 at most. I would not recommend this hotel at all. I.

Positives: Location was good. Other than that this was a 2 star hotel.

Negatives: Small Unattractive Rooms, Expensive Valet, Not 4 Star Service at All.

The room was extremely small. The TV was so small it couldn't be watched comfortably while sitting at the table. The low window had no screen and if open you could easily fall out. The people across the way - out the window - were sitting in their window staring at us constantly. There were dried spills on the table. The bed was definitely not a queen. I'd say a full. With a 6'4" man, it is not too cozy.

Positives: L'Occitane bath products.

Negatives: Small, uncomfortable.
