Mehhh, glad I got a good deal

This hotel was just alright. I got a good deal on our room through a discount service and let's just say I would have been extremely frustrated with the room had I paid full price. It really seems like the poured all the money into the lobby and common areas and left little for the room rennovations. Additionally, the deco was considered more highly over functionality in the rooms. For example the clock consistend of two clock hands bolted to the wall with no face? The bathroom mirror was side lit instead of top lit and the curtains did not block out the light in the morning. I also found it quite strange that the bed linens did not include a top sheet, only a duvet covered down comforter. If that down was too hot for you - too bad, there was nothing else to cover up with. Additionally, our shower did not drain properly so we had to stand in ankle deep water while showering. I wasn't really impressed.

turned out to be nice

the first room we had was very small. I thought we booked a double, which i thought was 2 full/double beds.. And it actually was 1 DOUBLE bed!! the room was tiny..there was 4 people staying in this room. The bellman was very nice and helped us get a new room. they didn't have any rooms avaiable for that night so the got us a room at the BLAKLEY a sister hotel around the corner. it was amazing they got us a suite! we hoped we could stay there the next few nights but it was booked. we ended back to the Wellington and the upgraded us to the tower and it had a balcony and kitchenette. it was a nice room. the staff was freindly on helping us. our friends only stayed with us one night at the blakley, then it was just my hubsand and I for the rest of our stay.

Wonderful!

We just came back from a two week trip to California and stayed at the JW Marriott for the first four days. We were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to a suite that was just beautiful! The Concierge Lounge had a wonderful variety of food for breakfast and great treats for midday and evening. They have a coffee machine that makes all types of drinks. My favorite was the mochaccino setting - delicious! The view from the lounge was quite scenic. The location of the hotel is perfect for all types of upscale shopping and very close to Fisherman's Wharf making it a short cab ride away. My husband and son even walked it one of the days we were there. The price for valet parking was set and the car could be taken out as many times as wanted for no extra charge. This is a pleasant hotel to stay in while in San Francisco. We will definitely go back when in California again next summer.

Wonderful visit

We were very satisfied with our visit. My husband travels a lot with his job, so we were able to redeem points for our 4 nights. Booking was easy no hassles. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a "suite". It was a lock off room with an extra sofa bed, coffee table, and tv. It was very nice to have the extra living space to watch tv late or early while people were sleeping. The beds were wonderful/comfortable. The bathroom was nice except the shower/tub did not drain very well, but not a major problem. We stayed on the 6th floor. The room and hallways smelled fine. The pool on the roof was okay. I was very hot when we were there 99+. The concrete around the pool was very hot. Kids were fine with the pool. Restaurant was pricey, but so is everything else in that area of DC. We just ordered off the menu and the kids ate free for breakfast and one evening meal. This is about 6 blocks from the White House. Location is good for food, pharmacy, Whole Foods,and bus transportation. It is a little walk to get to the metro. Overall, my husband, myself, and our two children would stay here again. Very pleased.

a memorable family vacation

We visited in late January, staying for four nights. Check-in is 3pm, but they can safely check your baggage while you visit Times Square. The room was spacious enough for the three of us, having a Deluxe SkyView Room with double beds on the 26th floor, high enough to see over the adjacent bldgs facing the river (a good view). The beds were comfortable. Everything was squeeky clean and fresh. The bathroom has a sliding door (without a latch? interesting...) and a shower with an overhead fixture and the only mirrors available. The water can get very hot. There is an extremely large HDTV with what I considered an unusually wide selection of channels, but the view from the very large window was much more interesting. Housekeeping was prompt and thorough, and we had a nightly turn-down service in our room. The fridge in the room was stocked with treats for all ages, but the convenience is billed at a premium if anything is merely removed. Wireless Internet service is available at a reasonable daily rate. The location is good, being within the theatre district and a block from Times Sq (close but not TOO close...the city truly doesn't sleep). We always felt safe/secure, and everyone we approached was friendly. Arguably, anything one might need is within 2-3 blocks, including a subway platform (your connection to the sites! get a 7-day MetroCard), theatres (we had reservations to "Phantom of the Opera", which was across the street!), *good* restaurants (for any meal), street vendors (yummy pretzels), convenience stores, and shops of nearly every kind (it's Times Sq, after all...even a Walgreens!). Check-out was courteous with no surprises. We were granted a request for late check-out at 2pm, (perhaps because I am a PriorityClub member for the IHC chain?), but one should double-check the day before departure. NOTE: The friendly concierge service is excellent, offering voluminous, sage advise (so assume nothing and ask!) :-) Among other things, I emailed them prior to arrival that my son was having his 16th birthday during our stay, and they sent a complimentary treat to our room to help him celebrate. My entire family will *not* forget our stay at this cozy hotel. I look forward to returning, and I highly recommend these accommodations to anyone visiting for any reason.

Disappointing

On arriving at the hotel our car delivered us to an underground enterance. On having our cases taken from us we were then pointed in through a door into the hotel and then found ourselves lost. After wondering around for a few minutes the porter found us and showed us the lift and told us to go to check in in the lobby. Check in was painless and we were shown to our room. The room was a Queen room bus was very disappointing. The furnishings were old and the décor was tatty. The room was of adequate size as was the bathroom. My biggest disappointment was the lack of room service after 10:30 in the morning. I kid you not you can only get room service between 06:30 and 10:30. There is also no tea of coffee facilities in the room so if you want anything to eat or drink you have to leave your room and go and find it for your self.

A bit of style

I'm not sure how we came to afford the Clift- maybe Expedia just drove a hard bargain with them? All I know is that a place of this quality would have cost 3 or 4 times as much in London. The Clift is decidedly stylish and 'boutique'. the Reception area is all in subdued reds, oranges and browns, with a couple of open fireplaces, lots of nooks and crannies, and strange artworks - feeling warm, yet contemporary at the same time. The lobby staff look more like bouncers at an exclusive yacht club. Our room, by contrast, was bright and light, with big mirrors, lots of attention to stylish detail, and a wonderfully comfortable bed with top quality linens - it was almost a shame to get out of bed in the morning. The staff were friendly and couldn't have been more helpful, not blinking an eye at finding me an emergency dentist on a Saturday afternoon! for various reasons we didn't breakfast in the hotel restaurant - but there are tow good diners (Lori's and Pinecrest) at the end of the block for a good American-style blockbuster breakfast. Union Square and all the big stores are just a few blocks away. I can't really think of anything to criticise, and the Clift will certainly be our first choice if we visit San Francisco again.

Very nice hotel!

Spent one night in the hotel for a workshop. Beautiful property. Numerous restaurants within easy walking distance. Staff was very helpful and courteous. Adjacent to the San Diego Convention Center. Would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable, Modern, Great Location

This hotel is a wonderful value in the University district. The staff was cheerful, friendly and helpful. It was our first stay here, but they upgraded us to a larger room. The decor was very modern, yet soothing - no ugly floral prints to hide stains. The decor, bedding and towels were nicer than I've had in much pricier hotels. If you are visiting the University, I can't think of a better location. Downtown and all the "tourist" spots are very easy to access, also. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Excellent hotel, value for money

We were looking for a reasonablly priced and closer to Hollywood hotel and we came across Hollywood Orchid Suites in Hollywood. Not knowing exactly what we were in for, we selected this hotel and booked it when we stayed in LA last May 2012. The room we were given was big, with separate kichen, good kitchen facilities, enough wardrobe to store our clothes, clean bed and enough space. It provided free internet, no need to pay to access the computer and the breakfast provided as part of the price was reasonable, and just enough for a good breakfast no need to have extra ordinarily big hotmeals and pay enormous amount even though they are part of your hotel fee. The staff were friendly and helpful and the taxi service was excellent, spot on time. On top of this, it is just a step away from everything and I mean everything. Aurora

Excellent Vacation!

My husband and I stayed here for our third anniversary, and it couldn't have been any better! We were asked when checking in if we were celebrating, and within 30 minutes we had a chilled bottle of wine and a personalized note from management. The room was very clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is very convenient to almost everything, within walking distance to Peir 39 and across the street from the cable car turn around and Ghirardelli Square. Steve, the doorman, was very attentive, telling us local places to eat and visit that weren't crowded (or tourist expensive...). He was great!! We will ABSOLUTELY be back! The only complaint we had, which wasn't so much the hotel's fault, but we stayed over Cinco de Mayo and the party in the street was very loud and ran well into the early morning. This was the only time we heard any noise from outside.

Excellent for business trip

The location was excellent - within walking distance of a park, cafes and Starbucks. Room was spacious - this particular layout even had a separate dressing area, which was essentially a very wide hallway between the bedroom and the bathroom. It allowed me to unpack in a central location and not worry about leaving things behind. Bathroom was on the small side, but very clean. Had a Sleep Number Bed, which was pretty cool. Hotel staff was nice, but one pointed me in the wrong direction of a local restaurant.... Would have been nice if she handed me a map or something to tell me the best way to get there. Bell men were very friendly. The room overlooked a pool, and, as I was getting ready for bed one night, I worried I wouldn't be able to sleep due to the little party going on out there - BUT - I think that was due to the bathroom window. I just closed the bathroom door when I went to bed, and I couldn't hear the noise at all. Stayed for 2 nights and would definitely go back!

Nice and convenient

A compact hotel at the heart of Union Square, where you could really hop on and hop off from it when shopping around, rest a while and continue the journey. Recommend to choose staying on either 3rd or 5th floor, which has a small lobby for breakfast and wine session from 1730 to 1900 daily. But totally no outdoor views, except staying at 01 room, which has a small window looking street outside. Customer service is great

pleasant surprise

Booked thru quikbook. Expected a tiny room and not much atmosphere. The fairly small but inviting lobby was contemporary and had a cool, boutique hotel vibe. Very friendly, professional, and quick check in. Got a larger than expected room - not sure if it was bcs it was an accessible room or not, but I'd request it again. The bed was very comfortable, with foam or "smushy" pillows. Things I liked: bathroom had a light dimmer, which I appreciated as a night light. The A/C was not noisy but provided enough white noise that my husband and I both remarked how quiet our room was - did not hear the usual street noise, even though we were not on a high floor. Things that I didn't like: no hooks or shelves in the bathroom, so nowhere to put your stuff, hang your toiletry bag. The noise from the hallway was loud - it was easy to hear talking/doors closing. I would stay hear again though - good neighborhood, near Empire State building. Liked the price, the room, the atmosphere. And the best part was we got a comfy bed that provided a good night's rest.

New hotel

I thought I would rate this hotel since it seems real new. Keep in mind I'm discussing mostly negatives but I like it overall. - you can't really park near your room, it's best to use the main entrance - Sealy Posturepedic bed I think - the internet requires that you agree to the terms each time instead of once then it uses a cookie or something for the rest of the week (this is a pain if you mostly VPN or use a smartphone or a couple other scenarios) - TV has 32 channels, seems fine although it has Fox News but not MSNBC; so you can't tune the bedroom TV to MSNBC and the living room one to Fox and see if a compromise is possible LOL - TVs have a female headphone jack and USB; clock radios have a male headphone jack - wifi and wired internet seem fine (wired I just measured 4.87 Mbps up and 2.33 Mbps down); wifi might be a little slower than wired and the latency is probably not quite as good - the bedroom ethernet jack works, the kitchen one not (I'm probably the first using my particular suite to discover this so I'll mention it to the front desk later) - hotel is on Cohen; if you exit and go right you can only really head north to the Gateway/WoodrowBean intersection; well WoodrowBean is undergoing major reconstruction causing some pretty major annoyances right now - the good news about that is you can walk to the movies, the (very average FWIW) steakhouse, and the minor league ballpark; I should probably also walk to WoodrowBean for slightly better food but I wind up driving LOL - the hotel says they have ethernet cables and many other little things, all ya gotta do is ask the front desk; well I'm 1 for 2 and the clerk said they don't have very many of each - no pool, I don't really care - free laundry - cool little convenience store nook next to the lobby check it out; the free coffee there is similar to McDonald's coffee which I love; but if you get the coffee real early in the morning it's real bad cuz it's probably from the night before - no manager's reception or free breakfast

Lovely Hotel, Fantastic Location

Staff were really helpful and friendly, hotel itself was lovely (clean and comfortable). Within 5mins walk of Macy's and 10mins to Times Square. Only issue was with noisy air con, but it's to be expected with an older building. Would highly recommend to anyone going to NYC, great value.

Trendy boutique and well located

Me and my wife spend 4 nights at Clift and really enjoyed the stay, after overcoming the shades of the lobby when you arrive....we stayed on an upper floor , size ok and service and ammenities also ok. The rate is a bit high, so we decided to avoid having breakfast there, so ou can go to many of the restaurants or coffee shops around the hotel. The nights at the bar are a must, very lively, trendy, good music and drinks ( except the caipirinha, need to check the recipe guys!) and nice people. One night the DJ started his own sax show that was fantastic!. Personnel is very friendly, especially the concierge who arranges reservaetions everywhere in minutes. There are probably less costly options in SFO, but if you want to spend a bit on a differrent experience come to the Clift.

Trendy boutique and well located Me and my wife spend 4 nights at Clift and really enjoyed the stay, after overcoming the shades of the lobby when you arrive....we stayed on an upper floor , size ok and service and ammenities also ok. The rate is a bit high, so we decided to avoid having breakfast there, so ou can go to many of the restaurants or coffee shops around the hotel. The nights at the bar are a must, very lively, trendy, good music and drinks ( except the caipirinha, need to check the recipe guys!) and nice people.

Great place to relax!

Took a short trip to San Diego to play for a few days. Stayed in the Bay Tower of the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina. Beautiful views from all rooms and the staff was excellent. We got a great "pre-pay" price on the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina website....$86.00 per night plus taxes. It is very convenient to the airport, and the bus line that takes you downtown to the embarcadero area. For an inexpensive, relaxing trip to San Diego, we highly recommend this hotel.

The best service in Chicago

Having stayed here a few times before with each stay getting better every time I decide to stay here, I kept wondering, can it really get any better? I have always loved Chicago and am up here a few times a year for business, but this time I decided I wanted to take a trip up there for something more relaxing and fun. I had many choices to celebrate my birthday, I really could have picked just about any city in the country but decided to go with Chicago for its great beer scene and fun nightlife. Laurelin Hefter is my W Insider that I have had the pleasure of dealing with during my previous stays, she has helped me with my dining recommendations and reservations, but just ensuring that my stay remains as enjoyable as possible. I reached out to her prior to my stay and trying to get some fun birthday plans settled in for myself and the group that was coming along with me, a task which she looked forward to helping out on. I was not only given a list of recommendations, but complete details such as location and price-point and what I could expect, and this is something which caught me off-guard but in a good way. I rely on Yelp and other sites to look up places, but with the type of service Laurelin Hefter provides, what's the point in all those sites anyways? From the week prior to the trip, until the time I left, Laurelin provided me with a very high level of communication and I have never seen this kind of service at any other W hotel before, I'll go as far as saying at any Starwood hotel. I was staying here for 3 nights, and every single night was full with all of Laurelin's recommendations so I was really looking forward to getting my stay under way. I arrived a couple hours later than expected due to a delayed flight, but check-in here was was very smooth as it has always been. The lobby itself was very lively at nearly 11.30 PM at night, but this is something that is always expected at a W, the atmosphere is always refreshing and unique when compared to your usual luxury chains. I found out I was upgraded to the WOW suite, something I have never experienced before! Upon entering the room, my jaw dropped at how beautiful it was, not only me but the others that were along on this trip as well. It was large, luxurious, and definitely one of the best suites I have ever been in! The trip was already off to a great start, but even though the room was such a pleasant surprise it was something else which really got me smiling. On the table in the small dining area next to the living room was a bucket full of Goose Island 312 beer, and a plate with a brownie that had "Happy Birthday" written around it!! Who does this??? I've celebrated other occasions at hotels, but this was the first time I had seen this for my birthday and it was due to Laurelin Hefter going way above and beyond what is expected to make sure I am welcomed in such a way that makes me feel like a valued guest. There was also a little note that came with it wishing me a happy birthday and I would say the first 5 minutes of entering the room and experiencing all this made this trip worth it right then and there! After drinking our Goose Island beer, and eating that delicious brownie, we went out to a couple of the recommended places down on Hubbard and ended the night close to 4 AM. The first night itself was very fun, and I was excited to check out the other spots that were recommended to us. The next morning I needed to make a request at the front desk and had the pleasure of encountering Amanda Sweetman, someone who has helped me so much in the past and was actually the very first W City Center talent member I came across during my very first stay here in 2011. She welcomed me back, totally delivering on the personalized service that this property is known for and you just feel comfortable when you see talent members that recognize you from previous stays. She was able to take care of my request with ease, and I was off to enjoy the rest of my day. In the evening we hit up a couple more of the spots that Laurelin had recommended and planned for us, and each one turned out to be a gem. Chicago is such a massive city with so many bars that my biggest problem was just picking a place. I'm actually a very decisive person, but this city forces me to think and I left it all on Laurelin to pick the places she felt would be the most fun for us. It turned out to be a great night and my last night was even better. This was going to be my celebration night, and Laurelin planned dinner at a great Sushi spot (Union Sushi) and then for some pre-drinks at Haymarket Brewery in Fulton before going to The Mid Nightclub. All of this was arranged by Laurelin, and I had probably the best birthday ever! The rest of my group had such a good time that I kept getting asked how I could pick such great spots that were so enjoyable, but I simply told them that none of this was me and it was actually our W Insider who suggested and planned this all out. We would have never known about these spots had it not been for Laurelin, and this type of service is what I consider to be the highest standard in the hospitality industry. On the last day I needed to make one more final request with the front desk and was assisted by Bre, one of many talented Welcome Desk agents who took care of this with ease - something that doesn't surprise me anymore but makes me wonder why other hotels can't be like this? Amanda also greeted me as I was getting ready to leave and asked how my evening was and wished me a Happy Birthday. Such a great way to end this memorable trip. The W City Center has so many talented staff members, and this trip could not have been possible had it not been for Laurelin. The level of communication and dedication towards ensuring a wonderful escape was so high, and with her efforts along with the other talented staff members, this is what keeps me a loyal W City Center Chicago guest. You really cannot get any better than the service over here and W Hotels should be very proud of such a property that has some of the best trained employees I've ever come across. You really need to stay here and discover this for yourself and you will not be disappointed. I had a celebration planned out to perfection, and this incredible stay is now my most memorable stay of 2012. Well done W City Center, I look forward to being back here again very soon!

Just what you would expect of a 5 star hotel

I can't begin to explain how wonderful the experience was. Cocktails upon arrival for me and 3 of my friends, send a text message to have your car pulled up. Beautiful hotel, wonderful location, great decor, and good food. I'm thinking of going back to join them for their New Year's Eve celebration.

Great Service

Recently visited San Antonio for the first time with my wife for our National Sales Meeting (we both work for same company) & it just so happened to be our anniversary. What a trip we had and the extra days were perfect. Sandra the hotel concierge was outstanding. . .was awesome. Thank you. On this trip I misplaced my iPhone charger, and tried to replace with a knockoff brand (could not find an Apple store or Apple retailer) which did not work. The housekeeper came by to see if we wanted our room made up for the day, we decline only needing towels. However, I noticed an iPhone charger on her cart. I asked if there was anyway I could borrow, without hesitation, she handed to me and said I could have it. I realized what she had just done for us. I returned to the hall 30 seconds later, and she was gone no where to be found on the floor. What customer service. . .Thank you to Gabriela Bastida (HouseKeeping) . . .you did not have to do that, and you did it without even thinking about it. Customer Service goes a long way in my book, and this is one hotel that will always gain high marks in my book.

Great place to stay

The staff make you fell so welcome and they remember you and make it feel awesome to stay. The rooms are well kept and clean the restraint offers some good snacks or entrees if you so desire. The room rates are awesome for the area there are many attracTions close by. Four to five major restaurants you can walk to. The general manager is very friendly he will take care of whatever you need as will Jess at the front desk.

Another great experience at Four Points Sheraton

Stayed: January 9-13, 2012 This is the 3rd time we’ve stayed at the Four Points Sheraton in SoHo and we are always impressed. When we arrived, we asked for an upgrade and were given one…a room on a higher floor overlooking the new World Trade Center building. We arrived early and our room was ready. The staff at the front desk is always friendly and welcoming…every single one of them. The woman who checked us in even remembered us from our last visit a year ago, which also speaks to the longevity of the staff. She also bought us a glass of wine from the hotel lobby bar. One evening as we returned to the building, the staff was having a “Thank You” reception for the guests offering wine and introducing the Housekeeping Manager and General Manager, Denise Luna. Ms. Luna took the time to chat with us and ask how our stay was and what she could do to make it better. Our room was always clean when we returned in the afternoon and never had to wait for housekeeping. When we asked for additional towels, someone delivered them within minutes of our request. Same with the gym…when we called about room temp and sound, an engineer arrived within a minute. The room itself is average-sized by NY standards. Our room had a desk and chair as well as an additional reading chair. The room also had plenty of outlets. The location of the hotel is great as it is located on a quiet street in SoHo, but is easily within walking distance of many great restaurants, bars, and shopping. There are two subway lines within two blocks from the hotel. We highly recommend this hotel and will be booking our next stay soon.

Exceptional service and perfect location

Took the family down to Baltimore for a quick two day getaway. Used Marriott points for a room at the Renaissance and couldn't have been more pleased. The location is ideal as you are directly across the street from the hub of the harbor area. Paddle boats, shops, and aquarium are all right there. We hit the Discovery Children's Museum which was only a short 4 block walk and went to an Orioles game at Camden Yards which was an easy 5 block walk. Besides the location, we were very impressed with the overall service. Everyone from the valet, bellhop, front desk staff and maid service were wonderful. To top it off, a gentleman held the door for us and our stroller as we walked out the front entrance to begin exploring the area and he asked if we needed any directions. We asked a question about how far the ballpark was and a few other places and he proceeded to provide us with the best recommendations on what to do with the kids that day and beyond. Turns out he was the General Manager, Bob and he couldn't have been a nicer guy. He also treated our daughter to an apple juice the next morning while we waited at the Starbucks in the lobby. Great understanding of good service. Room and facility are all very good as well. Great spot to stay when visiting the Baltimore Harbor!

Great Hotel for Business or Pleasure Visit

The La Quinta at LAX in Los Angeles is a great hotel to stay at when visiting LA for work or pleasure. The rooms are immaculate and the service personnel are extremely courteous, respectful and helpful with your every need. They literally make you feel like a VIP guest. The hotel also maintains an excellent restaurant, the Destination Restaurant, which is managed by Angel. Angel ensures that each guest is treated royally and the food is outstanding and reasonably priced. We never look beyond the La Quinta at LAX as a hotel to stay at when visiting the greater Los Angeles area. The hotel location is extremely convenient as it is only a few blocks from the Interstate 405 with easy access to most parts of the city. I highly recommend this hotel when visiting LA.

Just perfec

During my last visit to Boston we decided to stay at the Park Plaza. For our weekend getaway the hotel was just perfect. The location is the most convenient. Service was warm, fast and efficient. We got a great room facing the tower across the street. This is a classic hotel, but it shows that they are updating it. Can't wait to be back!

Centrally Located and Pet Friendly with Helpful Amenities

Excellent place to stay in downtown Denver if you are taking advantage of downtown attractions. They provide a free shuttle service as long as you request it one hour in advance of your departure. We used it to go to a game at Coors Field. They give you a number to call when you want to be picked up. Hotel was very clean and appeared to be recently renovated. Staff was professional and friendly. Nice breakfast choices. Very pet-friendly hotel with only a small fee. Be aware that there are specific floors for pets. Because we did not call ahead to say we were bringing a dog we could not get into the kind of room we had reserved. They did put us in another type of room for the same price. Overall I would really recommend this hotel.

First time here, won't be the last time!

My boyfriend and I stopped over in New York City for a couple days on our way to Montreal, Canada. We were taking an early morning train to Montreal so we wanted to stay at a reasonably priced nice hotel in walking distance from Penn Station. Staying at the Comfort Inn Chelsea exceeded our needs and helped make this leg of our trip a really nice experience. Check-in went quickly and smoothly; staff was very friendly. We were pleased with our king room, it was a little small as our bed dominated the room but the room was clean and in good condition. We thought it had been recently renovated as everything seemed newer (i.e., paint, wallpaper, etc.) The bathroom was also clean and in good condition, though also a little on the small side. My only complaint was there wasn't much space to put anything in the tub area, i.e. full size shampoo, conditioner, etc. The refrigerator worked well as did the nice sized flat screen tv. The bed was huge and very comfy; we both slept very well and the room was very quiet despite the building work and renovations being done. We had no problems with wi-fi, which was fortunate since you have to pay by the minute to use the internet in the hotel business center. The A/C worked really well too. Location was great; I felt it was a very safe neighborhood and centrally located to the attractions we wanted to visit. The concierge was friendly and helpful in directing us as well. Getting to the subway was an easy walk and there were a lot of close by places to eat and buy stuff that we needed unexpectedly. Breakfast was pleasant; there was a nicely appointed dining area that was large and well maintained. There was an array of hot and cold items that was plentiful, plus Belgian wafflemakers were available. We had a very early start to go take the train at Penn Station but breakfast was ready and waiting! Check-out went smoothy as well. I would definitely be willing to stay here again the next time I'm in NYC; the reasonable prices, great location, amenities and proximity to Penn Station make it a great value!

I flew in to LA for a meeting, just needed to spend one night there and didn't want to spend too much. By the time I cleared customs it was already 11:30 pm. I called the hotel directly and spoke to a very professional and friendly chap named Trent, I asked for and received a room at a a decent discount. The rate in included a free shuttle to and from the hotel. The shuttle,, a new Mercedes Benz van, picked me up within 15 minutes of my call and it took all of eight minutes to get to the hotel. Trent was there at the front desk with a wonderful attitude and automatically upgraded me to an 11th floor room! After checking in, I wanted to run the the Ralph's, which is just a few steps away. I left my bags at the check-in while I went to the store. When I returned from the store, 10 minutes later, Trent advised me that my bags had already been brought up to my room! This is pretty amazing, considering this property does not even offer bell-hop service. My room, was clean, understated, chic and quiet. The bed was not as comfortable as I would have liked, but I slept fine. Though there is a pod-type coffee maker in the room, I require espresso when I wake up, so I called down to the front desk to confirm they had it. Unfortunately I was misinformed and told they only had coffee.So I walked to the Coffee Bean about 1/2 a block away for my espresso. When I returned I saw that they were serving breakfast in the cafe section off the lobby. Lo and behold, they were also offering espresso, I was a bit irritated, I would have much rather grabbed my morning wake-up cup in the hotel. No matter, I partook in the breakfast buffet, it was standard fare:coffee, juice, fresh fruit, bread, eggs, sausage and pancakes at $11.35. Not too bad for an all you can eat spread. My meeting was very close to the hotel, I asked for a late check out,1:pm, and after my meeting took a quick nap. I then checked out, leaving my bags with the front desk and hung out in the clean and comfortable pool area until 5:00 pm. After which I grabbed by bags from the front desk, and hopped on the free shuttle to the airport, A great stay, simple, effortless, clean, friendly and moderately priced.

The location saves it

In our recent 2 week tour of California this was the most disappointing hotel we stayed in. Positives: the location is great for exploring the city without a car (no car park anyway) as you are close to BART, bus, tram and cable car stops, it's a relatively safe area after dark and there's a big Westfield shopping centre next door. Negatives: there is no coffee machine, the towels were torn, the light switches faulty, no free water - someone has bothered to type out and stick a $5 label on each bottle "welcoming" you to the room..., the in-room safe was broken and housekeeping had to be called to fix it, the toilet regularly blocked, no central ceiling light made the room dark during the day. There was a free coffee/water stand in reception during breakfast hours but no-one advised us of this so we only discovered it later in the stay. These negative things all soured the experience of what could be a great city hotel.

Perfect Location

This hotel is definitively a Kimpton. The decor is fun and it has all the trimmings of a boutique hotel. The location is fantastic. Several blocks away from the White House and across the street from the Spy Museum and the Verizon Center. Like most Kimptons this hotel is pet friendly. DC is a great town for walking around with a dog so being able to travel with your dog and stay in such a nice hotel is a real treat. The rooms can be on the small side. I opted for a step up from the standard room to have a little more space. The only negative about my stay was brunch at the hotel restaurant, Poste. It's a bit on the pricey side which I don't mind as long as the food and service are good. In this case the food was substandard and the service was lacking. There are many fabulous restaurants in DC, I would recommend avoiding Poste. Other than that, the Monaco is a great hotel and I would definitely stay there again the next time I'm in downtown DC.

Beautiful Building- Contents Average

I stayed overnight at the Sheraton Suites Symphony Hall on Saturday, Sept. 22nd. This was the second booking I had with them- the other was 2 years ago, and unfortunately, not much has changed. The suites themselves are a welcome change from ordinary, tight hotel rooms, but mine didn't seem more comfortable. The blue velvet couch in the living area was ok, but by adding an upholstered chair, large glass sofa table, and entertainment armoire made the room claustrophobic. No fridge in my room so can't comment. AC was great. I realize hotels have to make money somehow with all the deals around, but $3.50 for a bottle of water? Seems outrageous. Tube TV in bedroom, so not that great a picture. Popcorn ceilings, worn-out bathroom led to a dated feel. The rates haven't gone down, so how about some updating Mr. Sheraton? Decent location for traveling around downtown- 3 blocks to the trolley stop, but far away from the harbor and the Gaslamp District. Free wi-fi in the lobby and computers available if you didn't bring one- so that's a plus. But the location, right outside of the restaurant, didn't provide much privacy or allow for much work to be done. Didn't use the parking structure, so can't comment. Service was acceptable. Would stay again if the rate was right.

Best in Class

My high school friends from New York, Connecticut, Florida and California were in town Labor Day weekend and we stayed at the Radisson Blu. The hotel delivered. The location is great; one block from Millennium Park and the Chicago River and within comfortable walking distance of Michigan Avenue’s Magnificent Mile. Navy Pier was a short cab ride away. The hotel services were exceptional, the staff was quick to respond to requests, and the 17th floor lounge was well stocked with gourmet pastries and espresso for breakfast and complimentary beer and wine for evening cocktails. My friends and I made good use of the outdoor pool, the indoor pool (when it got breezy) and the hot tub. There were plenty of common areas to unwind after a tiring day of playing tourists in Chicago. And the rooms were exceptionally hip, very clean and everything is well thought of, including an Ipad, dock for Iphone. The bed sheets must have been 2000+ thread count and pillows were comfortably soft. Very clean. The business center also provided convenience when my friends had to verify their flights and print boarding passes.

Very Cool

Cool hotel, incredible location across the street from Lincoln Center. Do not get an inside room-it overlooks an airshaft. We were upgraded to a suite by the manager.

Its where you want to be on Ritt Square

Let me start by admitting that when I go high end on a hotel, I prefer contemporary style. The Rittenhouse, is definitely not contemporary. Its like a slightly dated Ritz Carlton. The highlight of the hotel is the location; its a large building right on Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia and its a block from all the hip restaurants and lounges on 18th Street and the surrounding neighborhood. definitely close to shopping in the nearby boutiques. The Park on the Ritt square is always vibrant, and full of life. It has a mini-NYC feel. One day theres an art festival, another street performers and spectators. If your a runner (or biker), like I am, 8 blocks straight down locust will get you to a waterfront path that goes for about 5-6 miles right past waterworks, the boat houses, and kelly drive, and on. Take Falls Bridge for a 12 mile loop back near the start (at the Art Museum). Back to the hotel: the service was great. several doormen and concierge staff all very friendly, helpful and attentive. Maid service came in several times to make sure my room was perfect! They even have a free shoe shine. My room service breakfast was delivered hot, and exactly on time! My newspaper was delivered to order too. But the TV software was cumbersome to handle and had frustrating delays when pushing buttons--probably an older system like much of the rest of the furnishings. Its still very high end, dont get me wrong, and my suite was spacious and clean and nice. Not sure if there is a better alternative on Ritt square, which is where I want to be when I am in Philly!

Another perspective

We recently stayed at the Affinia Manhattan based on the glowing reports on tripadvisor. We've stayed in a number of hotels in New York on previous trips, so I believe I have some knowledge of other hotels in this price range. I felt it was important to offer another opinion about this hotel and perhaps a potential guest can make sure they get a better room than the one we were given. The hotel is certainly convenient to Penn Station, as it's across the street, and this is great if you're coming from the Newark Airport. Staff was very pleasant. Wifi is available in the lobby which was undergoing renovations while we were there in October. Lots of elevators so you don't need to wait long. We were on a higher floor and I didn't find noise an issue, but then I did use the earplugs. Most importantly, I'm writing this review because I was disappointed with the condition of the room. The shower stall tiles were worn/cracked, moldy and overall it felt unclean. Some attempt at cleaning the mold was made after I called housekeeping. The bed was made-up with worn and nubby sheets which were replaced the next day after I called to complain, but should never have been on the bed in the first place. The room is a very good size and it seems that not so long ago it was updated with more contemporary furniture. Again, why leave a half broken window blind hanging so that the room seemed shabbier and uncared for? We received an email from the hotel organization after our stay asking us to complete a survey regarding our visit. I dutifully filled it out addressing some of my concerns regarding the condition of the room and that I would neither stay here on my next trip to New York nor would I recommend this hotel to friends. I did not receive a reply.

Excellent service all the way..........

I have stayed at The West Gate Hotel and have a very positive experience. I had a week at a nephrology congress ASN. I had a good dialogue with the hotel and especially the chief concierge Shraddha Carlin. She always gave me the best of services and also understood the need of my requirements, Without her I wouldn´t have had the excellent experience as I had with reataurant visits, hair dresser and guidance to the best shopping. BR, Lena

Nice Place

While on my trip @ this hotel, I was upset by how far it was from any store for someone without a car! The bed was nice and comfy, the TV sucked a really old TV without any hook up for a xbox! Way to many people just roaming around & the cameras everywhere made me feel kind of unsafe, like the only reason they need that many cameras is there is way to much going on over there

Excellent hotel for a family to stay in

Excellent and obviously recently refurbished hotel. The staff were very helpful and the rooms were spacious and clean. It is sooooo centrally located, with the air & space museum only 5 mins walk away, capital hill 15mins, metro 5 mins and the shuttle bus to Dulles airport 5 mins(to Hazy museum if you loved the air & space museum - is a must!). Also, the head office of NASA is around the corner (hidden of course) and a supermarket 15 mins walk away. For dinner at night it is a little isolated, but we could eat in the restaurant - it had fancy as well as plain type food. The food was excellent and kids ate free! Take-away was also an option.

Average convention hotel

I've stayed at the Wardman several times for conferences, and as long as the conference is based here, I'll continue to stay mainly due to the convenience factor. Recent stay, however, more glitches/issues than I recalled from last time including screwed up bill (which in fairness, was straightend out), housekeeping issues, and about the weakest, most luke-warm shower ever. Others have commented on Internet cost, I agree but it is a reality of most convention hotels. They do have free wifi and some dedicated terminals in the bar which is a plus. Convenience to Metro, a few decent restaurants, Adams Morgan a nice walk away, National Zoo (if you bring the kids) is also walkable are also pluses. Convention facilities are nice, decent and easily accessed. Room was only OK, bed was confortable, but no blanket/comforter was a (negative) surprise. Small fridge in room, however, was a positive surprise. 2nd floor room had no view whatsoever, blocked by roof of attached convention space. Bathroom was small, to much flow restriction on shower and water didn't get hot enough for my taste. Housekeeping was problematic, room was clean enough, but mold on inside of shower curtain, week-old newspaper in drawer, makes me question how thoroughly it was cleaned. As I said, I'll stay here the next time the conference is in town as the alternative (1/2 mile away at the Hilton) is worse than the issues here.

Absolutely awful - left with three two dozen bug bites!

This is a disgusting hotel far below any Starwood property standard. The hotel is old and it is run down. There is dust everywhere, dirty forks in the hallways, and bugs in some rooms (in fact, my room on the Starwood preferred guest floor was). See the photos. White hotel management attempted to be helpful, they failed dismally, beyond simply switching my room and not charging for the stay. I was neither reimbursed for everything that needed to be thrown out (my luggage, clothing, etc.) nor was there a follow up after the exterminator's report was completed. After several messages, I still have not received a reply from the hotel management and decided to elevate the issue to Starwood Corporate. What a shame. You just turned a 10+ year Starwood loyalist into a disappointed client spending far too much time on doctor's visits to address the bite markets remaining on my body even after 10 days.

Fantastic Hotel

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of our honeymoon, great location in Sutter Street. The decor was fresh and modern in its orange & white scheme. We had two king size beds in our rooms, and complimentary use of white toweling bath robes. There was free wi-fi here and they served free tea and coffee in the reception area. There is a nice little Irish bar down the road which did happy hour between 4 & 6.30pm everyday and served up some lovely food. Would stay here again.

Nice stay

Booked two rooms here for a family weekend getaway. Desk staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Location is close to highway, near numerous medical facilites. It's just short drive to downtown Indianapolis, and there are many stores and restaurants within a few miles.

Modern, clean and comfortable

We stayed in the Acme hotel July 2012 for 3 nights. We had the standard king room (12th floor, view on the parking garage behind the hotel). Temperatures this week reached 100 degrees (F), but the A/C worked perfect to cool the room. The hotel offers complementary breakfast, which we only used once, but is definitely good. Also a free USA Today newspaper was provided every morning. Also a coffee service was offered, but we did not make use of this. Free coffee is provided all day at the breakfast room (2nd floor). The hotel also offered parking in the parking garage just behind the hotel at USD 29/night, which is not a bad rate for Chicago downtown parking. The location of the hotel is good, just 2 blocks of Michigan Avenue and in good walking distance to other attractions (5 minutes to the Michigan Avenue bridge, 10 minutes to the beach (just follow Ohio street) and 15-20 minutes to Navy Pier). A subway station is just around the corner on Grand Avenue. The interior of our hotel room was very modern and clean. The bed was very comfortable and the room was equipped with a large tv. Also the bathroom was perfect with a very comfortable rain shower. The bath products smell great!! Alltogether, we definitely would consider this hotel for another stay in Chicago.

Very nice hotel

My family and i were attending a convention in Katy, TX. This hotel was convenient to Katy and had several restaurants in the area. The hotel is nicely decorated and has a very nice pool although a little small. The lobby is also small but does have a bar as well as a restaurant in the rear of the hotel. The staff is friendly and all employees greeted us with a smile. The only drawbacks were that there was a very loud party on the 10th floor and we could hear the music on the 8th floor. In addition, we tried to check in at 3pm (regular hotel check in time) but our room was not ready. The cleaning staff did a good job but at times over used the lysol spray.

free wifi

The hotel is what you would expect for a great low price, and the hotel manager Millie was excellent. The best selling point is that for the low low price wifi was included for free, as was HBO! Also the free breakfast is great.

Great Getaway Week-end From the Montreal Grand Prix

I normally get out of Montreal each June during the Formula 1 Grand Prix Festivities and usually go to NYC where it is quieter than Montreal - well at least that week end. I have stayed at other Peninsula locations, but this was my first time at the NYC location. If you are a tourist looking to shop and have easy access to Central Park to enjoy a little jog, then this hotel has a perfect location. You may not get the best views in the city, but with so many things to do nearby, who cares? The hotel is an old property that has been refurbished. The hotel has a very different design than, for example, the Four Seasons nearby where I have stayed once. The Peninsula's layout has a bit of quirks but it adds to the charm of an older property. If you enjoy modern/design hotels, you probably would not like it there. From that standpoint, the Peninsula in Chicago is better, but it does not have that old world charm that the NYC location has. The bed was very comfortable. You think that should be a given in that hotel class, but I recently stayed at a Ritz and I had to have the mattress changed (granted, the Peninsula is above the Ritz). Good gym, but I must admit I have seen better. I did not try the room service. Did the hotel meet my expectations? Yes. Would I come back again? Certainly, but with so many interesting luxury hotels in New York, I believe that I may try a few more hotels before coming back. The service was great, which is really the distinguishing feature of Peninsula hotels beyond the sheer luxury.

Looks slick...but the room had some issues.

Was excited to stay here for a recent business trip. The lobby doesn't disappoint with its slick and modern decor. I waited in line for quick awhile to check in, and eventually a very nice reception person took me over to another desk to check me in. Once I got to the room, though, there were a few problems. First, the hot water in the shower didn't work well. I turned it all the way up but it didn't actually get hot until 3/4 of the way into the shower. I figured, "Oh, we're on the 7th floor, it just takes awhile to heat up. It'll be okay for the next shower." But it wasn't. Also, the remote control for the TV didn't work. Then, I noticed that the in-room refrigerator is so stocked with things to buy, there's barely room to chill a bottle of water. I managed that, though (ha). In the process, I noticed two cans of macadamia nuts in there that had not been moved (you get charged once you move something), but the tops had been peeled off. I assume this was the last person's attempt to eat things from the refrigerator without being charged. Wouldn't the cleaning staff notice this and remove them and re-stock? I was charged for these two items that I didn't eat. I was able to rectify it, but it meant another phone call. Finally, there were issues with the printer in the very small business center. It meant that I got charged multiple times for a print jobs that I didn't make. But there was no one there to help with the printer, and there was no one who could help with the multiple charges. For that, you have to deal directly with the vendor for the internet service. Have called them twice, and still haven't heard back. At least the bed was extremely comfortable.

Great hotel and location!

We stayed 2 nights at the Loews and found it very convenient and comfortable. it is at walking distance from the Visitors Center, Libery bell, Independence hall, Phila Museum of Art, Barnes Foundation, etc. We got a reasonable price booking through Expedia, but we had to stay outside of Philadelphia, on the Wednesday night when we arrived from Canada, as the price was 3 times what we paid the following 2 nights! As a few traveleres mentioned, the parking is very expensive ($43.00 incl. tax) and so is room service (they charge 20% gratuity AND $3.00 additional delivery charge!) Rooms are clean and of good size, staff is friendly; however, not quite at par with the luxury of other Loews hotels, but still very good. We would certainly stay there again if we were to return to Philadelphia.

The heart of Times Square

I stayed in this jotel for 2 night during my business trip. It is in the very center of the city, like other reviewers put it "in the heart of Times Square". It is good location wise and bad if you realy need rest as the location if not quiet at al. The staff was helpful and the ficility is modern and high class. Great stay for business trips.

Lovely!

My husband and I visited Washington D.C end of april/beginning of may. We came straight from 5 days in Chicago (we're from the UK) and another Kimpton hotel. Hotel George is in an excellent location with Union Station and the Capitol Building literally 5 minutes walk. The exterior is lovely and the lobby is very bright and fresh. When we got out of the elevator to go to our room the hallways are quite dark and look a little bit dated which made us apprehensive about what the room would be like. However, the room was lovely. Compared to the Kimpton hotel in Chicago the room did feel a little bit dated but it was large, clean and bright. The windows had blinds on them which were a bit odd to use and the air conditioning was a bit loud but these criticisms are very minor and shouldn't put people off using the hotel. The staff were very friendly. We dined in the restaurant one evening which was lovely. Next time we go to Washington (and we have to go back because there's so much more to do!) we would definitely go back to Hotel George.

Great Service

The hotel was nice, old fashioned, and elegant. My card was charged for the full night amount plus a hold for incidentals, and the front desk agent went out of his way to call my bank and have the charges removed. The service was above and beyond!

Not too Shabby!

Okay so I am far from being considered an out of towner, due to my being a NJ resdient which is right across the Hudson, but I will say this place was not a bad experience at all. We only stayed for 1night because we knew after the evening events we were not going to want to head back to Jersey for reason of all the traffic on a Friday night coming into the city. So, the lobby of the hotel kind of reminds you of a train station sitting area, there were sooo many people moving about very congested with tourists and folks waiting to check in/out. Nonetheless, things went very smoothly because we made reservations 3days prior. This was to be expected beacause of the location of the hotel, so dont be alarmed at the chaos in the lobby its really a high traffic area in that part of the city. TOURIST CENTRAL. The hallways going to the room are a little creepy like something out of the movie" The Shining" but guessing this is just because the hotel is really old and just needs to be updated. I will say not once did I get the feeling that this was some "sleezy" motel where you would find questionable characters hanging around outside or possibly shady deals going on, it was quite low key. The room was very much to my liking, it had a nice size flat screen, the bedding and linens were fresh, there was no mildew smell in the room and we slept very comfortably. Noise outside the room was non existent. Overall, this was an enjoyable night out on the town with my significant other and we may make this "our" quick little place to stay whenever we stay in the city.

Ok....

Called to make a reservation over the phone was told I would get a confirmation by email that night and I had to keep asking questions. We arrived got checked into our room and it was a smoking room. I called front desk and they said I did not state my preference (I was never asked), also our toilet was not working. Lady was very rude and offered to downgrade us. (Wow, thanks). They came right away to fix toilet but both maintenance and housekeeping knocked quickly then just came in our room. Location is ok, nothing really around the area. Room was nice, bed sunk in. Not worth the price. Splurge somewhere else.

Don't have high expectations, but it's "ok".

I've stayed at the Capri twice. Once in the Fall of 2011 and again in October 2012. The first time I stayed I was pleasantly surprised. I checked in early at 12noon and they had a room available. It was clean, a new bed, great sheets and a 1950's bathroom which was spotless! I was really impressed. So I booked again a year later. This time I found the two guys at the front desk to have absolutely no public experience whatsoever. They obviously hadn't showered in a couple of days. In fact, their body odor was so bad that I had to step back from the front desk while they checked me in. Additionally, who checks in hotel guests wearing a stained "wife beater" under shirt? My room was on the third floor and newly painted in addition to new carpet. The lamps were questionable on era and the desk was very old and beat-up. The bathroom was immaculate in a 1950's green...it sparkled. Being on the top floor I had the benefit of having rather high beamed ceilings which were newly varnished. The bed, however wasn't "new" anymore. There were two indentations on the right and left side where people had worn it down. In fact, it was so soft and worn, I had to sleep directly in the middle...like on an axle, in order to get any kind of level sleep. The internet was practically useless. I could play "Words With Friends" on my computer, but even this took long periods of time to send the information. But forget about pulling up a website...no joke, it never happened! I waited and waited but the websites would not come up in less than 30 minutes. So on that, way too weak of a signal. The price was fair at around $150 for "off" season. But after the slow internet and poor front desk staff (who I suspect are also the owners), I began to think about trying out the newly renovated hotel down the street. Still, I'm not totally ready to give up on the Capri just yet.

Ok - but a little pricey

I stayed here in July for 3nights in a Club room. The room itself was great, very large, 2 beds, huge floor to ceiling windows with views over the trade centre & construction site ( not much the hotel can do about that, though it was extremely annoying with constant banging from 7am). I felt it was over-priced, but then again Boston hotels in general aren't cheap (though I preferred recent stays at both the Back Bay Hilton and Sheraton). Unfortunately My room was right next to the club lounge which I hated; I was woken at 5am every day when the staff turned up to start prepping for breakfast which resulted in continual banging of cupboard doors right next to my head as the beds were up against the adjoining wall. I was not impressed. Bar area was nice, and hotel is fairly well positioned with good access to a few restaurants. Hotel suited where I needed to be for the time I was there but much prefer the Back Bay area.

Grate choice in NYC!

Last month I was at the Radisson Lexington Hotel. The rooms are comfortable and the service is very good. Especially the Guest Relations Manager Mariya Andriyenko is awesome, always aware of everything. Highly Recommended. I hope to return soon!

Heaven

My sister and five friends just spent five glorious days at the Wyndham Blake. We were treated like queens, and the hotel is quite exceptional. Customer service is the name of the game here; everyone is as nice as pie and makes you feel as though you're the only guest and they exist for you happiness. Everyone was smiling and charming and happy. So often front desk staff act as though the stresses of the world are upon them- not so here! This hotel is a touch far from the center of most Chicago action, but not bad, and the restaurant is so-so, but as a hotel, it rocks. My room was lovely and comfortable. Good pillows great bed free internet bless their souls. Management and bell staff felt like family.

scarey

The hotel was quite small and basic, but it was a place to stay and close to the stuff we wanted ot see. It was very warm for March; it was over 80 degrees and the hotel did not have a fan or an air conditioner on so we were hot in our tiny room!!We did open a small window in the bathroom that let a little air in. The pillows were flat and my husband had to ask the front desklfor another pillow. The beds were hard as a rock and I had a back ache for 2 weeks! I am a sound sleeper but husband is not; he heard screams in the middle of the night and he thought someone was getting murdered! Also, the walls are super thin and all night my husband heard in the next room people having sex all night all night long! The staff was nice and the breakfast was good ! One thing that sucked was that there was a $15.00 a night parking fee!

Nice room, nice staff!

I chose this placed based on the trip advisor ratings and was very pleased. The room was very large with 2 queen beds. We stayed in the newer building. Everything was very clean, and it was nice having the kitchenette to heat up leftovers from our yummy dinner at Pomodoro (a different review!) The breakfast was very nice with waffles, hard boiled eggs, fresh fruit as well as tropical fruit salad, bagels and cream cheese. Coffee and juices were there as well. What I liked was you could eat on real dishes with real silverware instead of paper. Nice! The Inn is located in a light industrial area, 8 minute drive (3 miles) to Sea World and within walking distance to Old Town and many restaurants, with many more available at a short drive. The only negative I had was tight parking. The staff was wonderful and there is a good selection of DVDs to borrow. If you're in San Diego, especially for Sea World, I would stay here again!

Great weekend with the kids.

Although this isn't the ideal hotel for kids, the staff did a fantastic job welcoming us as a family. They even had milk and cookies for our children when we arrived in our room. That was definitely a nice touch. We even hung out for a while in the Studio and played chess on the "Microsoft Surface". The bell and valet staff were extremely helpful and friendly and always seemed to be there to answer questions when we needed them.

Nice Hotel, the service made the difference

This hotel was built nearly 30 years ago so its an older facility. The rooms were spacious with older beds that lacked on comfort and showers that lacked on constant hot water. Additionally if you travel during the summer you may noticed the air conditioning in the room is also nearly 30 years old so you may experience discomfort due to the heat outside. The nice thing about this hotel was the staff and services provided. The breakfast was included in my stay and I was very please with it. Also they do a happy hour from 6pm - 7pm where they provide you with FREE drinks and chips. Granted its all pretty generic so don't expect to drink those $15 wine glasses, but I thought it was a nice service. The staff was also very helpful. The location is near the Love Field airport. You will not find any other restaurants that are walking distance, but with a car you will find a ton of restaurants within a 10 minute radios. Bottom line - this is not a bad place, it was clean, but lacked on comfort due to the age of the facility. If you are staying on a budget this could be a good option.

The Grande Dame of DC

I have just returned from a one week stay at the St. Regis in Washington, D.C. To say that the service I received at this property was outstanding would be an understatement. The flawless service began at check in and was consistent throughout my stay. Everyone on the Staff was knowledgeable and helpful and made extra efforts to assist with all of my requests, no matter how small. The diligence and dedication demonstrated by the employees at the St. Regis is evident the moment you enter this magnificent property. The St. Regis Washington is rich in architecture history. It is evident that no expense was spared in the restoration of this Grande Dame of Washington. The Hotel projects an atmosphere of its importance in history. Now sensitively restored, the Hotel's renewed elegance and modernity complement the grandeur of the property as never before. The St. Regis Washington’s lobby has been carefully restored and refurbished to its original elegant architectural style. The rest of the property is in pristine condition, gloriously restored to its original grandeur but with all of the modern enhancements you would expect. The enhancements complement the meticulously restored hotel. The rooms and suites are equipped with all new furniture, fixtures and artwork capturing the historic characteristics of the original Carleton Hotel in a classic, yet modern way. Of course the rooms have every amenity you would expect including a Bose radio featuring an iPod Sound Dock, a DVD player, a high definition, flat screen LCD television, wireless internet service, cordless phones, and wonderful beds with Pratesi linens. The bathrooms were not neglected in this glorious renovation. They are adorned with mosaic tiled walls and custom brass fixtures. There is even an LCD television built into the bathroom mirror. The bathroom amenities are typical high end St. Regis with numerous large plush large bath towels, Reméde bathroom products and those wonderful St. Regis bathrobes. My room had a large spacious tiled standing shower with the best water pressure I have ever experienced as well as a large soaking tub. When staying at this property treat yourself to dining at Adour. You will instantly know why this casual but elegant restaurant is regarded at one of Washington’s finest. I’m sure you will have a memorable dining experience; similar to the one’s I had. I highly recommend this property without reservation. Expect to be pampered. You may not want to leave!

Very good location

This is one of the best locations one can imagine, close to Times Square and the theaters. The room is small indeed, but clean and the bed is confortable. The price is high, but if you want Manhattan there are no cheap options... The staff was friendly. The only problem that I had was with the elevator, I had some sport to do to reach my 7th floor room. But this happened only twice during my 9 days at the hotel, it seems that they managed to fix it. They have their own driver that takes you to the airport for a reasonable price. For breakfast you have many options around, some of them expensive. For a sandwich or a coffee you can go to the Juice Bar next door, or the Emporium food across the street.

Outstanding Boutique Style Hotel

This hotel which is literally a few short steps away from Times Square offers a unique high end hotel experience in New York. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, very stylish Art Deco interior, beautiful rooms (we had a superior guestroom which was a bit on the light side in terms of space and a very generous junior suite), spectacular bath rooms and a nice spa with a small jet stream pool. Undoubtedly expensive, but highly recommendable. This is a 10 out of 10.

The place to stay when in New York City

In one word: the best place to stay when in Nyc (ok, I love the city and I love the Bowery, but the hotel is really a wonderful place) Pros: - perfect style in every single detail in room (from linen to bath towel) - location (if you love the Bowery and the East Village near the Lower East Side) - free wi-fi - free boarding pass printing - smiling and easy service - super customer care (some noise from the A/C, they upgraded us to a suite) Cons: - expensive

Location, location, location.

A great location just off the Magnificent Mile on Illinois, almost at the dividing line between The Loop and the Magnificent Mile. My wife and I stayed here and could walk to the northernmost tip of The Mile and as far south Millennium Park. All staff including front desk, valet, breakfast staff and cleaning staff were outstanding. Our room was a king suite with seperate dining area, living room and bedroom. In wall safe was an appreciated item. I requested an inside room, not fronting Illinois, to reduce exposure to the fire trucks screaming out of the fire hall next door. Noise was not a problem. Rate was around the $100 a night mark, great value for this gem.

Stay at the Lenox

Just returned from a 4 night break at the hotel. My daughter and I had a wonderful time in Boston and the hotel was the icing on the cake. From the moment we arrived the experience was excellent. We were in room 1125 on 11th floor with lovely city views. Beds were extremely comfortable and I slept well, which I find difficult in strange places. All the staff were very attentive and seemed genuinely interested in us and our days outings. Other comments about the bathrooms being small, I think are unfounded. How much room does one need to complete a shower etc? It was fine, very clean and the complimentary toiletries (Aveda products) were replenished daily as was the bottled water in the fridge. We did the Upper Trolley Duck tour that went around the City and got our bearings from that and visited everywhere we wanted. We also bought a 7 day transport ticket, a bargain at $15 giving us unlimited travel on the bus, T-trains and it also covers the ferry which we did not take. The daily unlimited ticket is $9 with a single fare priced at $2. We used the ticket to take us back to the airport, really simple journey, Green Line to Government Centre then Blue Line to the airport and a free bus shuttle service top the terminals. Journey time was approx 20 minutes We ate at Barking Crab (Sleeper Street) again excellent value and worth the wait. We shared the seafood platter - whole lobster, 6 king crab legs, 6 oysters and about a dozen prawns and the price was $42. Another restaurant we ate dinner was Brasserie Jo, more expensive but worth it for a treat. Also had cocktails one night at Top of the Hub, 52nd floor at the top of the Prudential Tower, also has a restaurant there. Great views of the city. Shops at Prudential centre and Copley Place were mainly up-market designer stores. Visited Salem and was disappointed with the visit. $10.50 return from North Station and the journey is about 25 minutes. The witch museums are a quite tame and the 2 we visited told the same story so a bit of a waste of time and money. Make sure you buy a return ticket as the station at Salem is on one track and no where to buy a ticket. One couple asked us where we had gotten ours from. I said you probably can buy them on the train from the conductor and someone overheard us and told the couple you can only pay cash on the train.

A fantastic hotel!

I cannot say too many wonderful things about this hotel! First of all, they were so accommodating that it's hard to believe that sort of service still exists. We were there hiking the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim and really needed a little TLC before and after the hike. NO WORRIES. Joel and Nikki took great care of us! We got express breakfast to take with us at 4a the next morning (upon check in). They shuttled us from the hotel to downtown Tempe twice and with PLEASURE. They loaded our bags in the shuttle and MET us in Tempe to take us to the airport. WONDERFUL! Everyone we encountered was just lovely. The rooms were clean and well appointed and the staff cannot be beat. Stay here, you will not regret it! Only downside was not being near any really healthy food BUT you can take the shuttle into Tempe and find anything you'd like to eat or drink. So problem solved!

Loved the hotel.

Loved the hotel. They had a great gym with good equipment. We found the food to be a little pricey, but we weren't shocked considering how nice the hotel was. It is a bit secluded, so I would recommend renting a vehicle.

Fantastic

Celebrated my 40th birthday with 5 nights in the Waldorf Astoria and it did not disappoint. With ourselves and another couple travelling, we had two excellent rooms. Staff very friendly, everyone speaks, good morning etc. Ensure you treat yourself to breakfast at the Peacock Alley restaurant or a beer at the Bull and Bear, both excellent, although pricey. My only regret is that we did not do the Waldorf Astoria Hotel Tour to take in all the sights, although on our last day I did get a sneak look at the Grand Ball Room on Floor 3. Even though we are from the UK, are have an interest in American history and the walls are adorned of black and white photos of Presidents, Kings and uens who have stayed at thh Waldorf. Also, you see hotos of famous actors attending gala dinners there etc. The place is stepped in history......Brilliant, will go back some day.

Excellent Hotel

Had five nights here, enjoyed it immensely. Excellent service from all staff, excellent breakfasts, excellent room - however the bathtub was too shallow and bathroom somehow looked a bit shabby compared to the rest of the room. I will definitley stay here again or at another Kimpton if I get the chance.

Still Reminiscing

After reading a great novel, the characters stay with me for a while and I replay scenes from the book in my mind. The same with a movie or a play; the "essence" or emotion evoked from the production stays with me for a time afterwards. It has been over a week since my stay at the Sanctuary, and I'm still smiling. I actually miss the "characters". From the doormen to the receptionists to the housekeepers, everyone was smiling and friendly. Better yet, they were accommodating. For example, I am an early riser; my Starbucks' Via coffee packets are never far away. I woke up in New York so early in fact, that the complimentary continental breakfast had yet to start. Since I was in need of hot water and there are no microwaves in the rooms, I called down to the front desk to ask for assistance. In a mere 2 minutes I had a smiling gentleman at my door with a cup of steaming hot water-no charge. He simply said "Be careful Ma'am, the water is very hot", and went on his way. This scenario replayed itself another morning, with the same result. How special is that? What other hotel would do that? None that I know of. Contrast that with the Paramount Hotel, where our workshop was being held in one of their suites. One day we needed a couple of extra plates because we had ordered take-out for 14 people and the order didn't come with enough plates. The Paramount charged $5.25 to bring up 2 plates ten minutes later! I didn't sign the check, but this probably didn't include gratuity. Can you imagine? I realize that we didn't order the lunch from the hotel, but we did hold our four-day meeting there (not a business meeting really, just a ladies retreat), and several of the women made the mistake of staying there instead of the Sanctuary, but yet they still charged to bring up two lousy plates. We had already finished eating by the time they finally arrived. Another bonus of the Sanctuary Hotel is that there is a "fresh & co" just across the street. They serve wonderful breakfasts if you want more than a continental breakfast, and they have fresh salads, soups, and sandwiches, conveniently packed to "grab and go" or eat in. The Sanctuary is your best location for proximity to Broadway plays and Times Square, and the "fresh & co" makes the location even better. The one and only gripe I have, and this is not unique to the Sanctuary, is that for those of us who need reading glasses or corrective lenses to read, it is impossible to distinguish the shampoo from the conditioner or the bath gel when showering. It would be so nice to have a graphic showing hair being shampooed with a big #1 on the bottle, another with a big #2 on it for the conditioner, and then the final bottle with the outline of a torso being washed for the shower gel. Perhaps this bottle could have a big "G" on it. I would think that this would also be useful for those international visitors who can't read English. The other information on the bottle is superfluous. It doesn't matter to me what the brand is, where it is made, or if it smells like lilacs or pepperoni, I just want to be able to know what's in the bottle. This hotel is a gem. I'm reticent to share my experience because if too many people find this hidden treasure, I might not be able to get a room for my next visit to New York! Do yourself a favor and book a room now; you won't regret it.

Great Location!

Stayed here while in NYC with my spouse and we had a great time! Housekeeping definitely paid attention to detail and the staff is very friendly and care about your stay here. In addition the location is superb! A short walk to many hot spots in downtown.

Beautiful hotel...basic rooms

The location of this hotel is fantastic-right up the street from the White House and in a decent neighborhood. The lobby is gorgeous...everything from the gym to the bar to the lobby bathrooms were large, elegant, and spacious. The gift shop had a great selection but was insanely overpriced (almost 4 dollars for a granola bar that you can buy a box of for $2.50 in the grocery store!). Parking was also very expensive ($44 including tax per night), but that seems to be the average price for the area. We were very disappointed in the size of the room. We travel a great deal, and this room had to have been the smallest that we have ever stayed in...ever. The bathroom door could barely be closed and the entire setup just made us feel claustrophobic. The tv, chair, bed, and desk were modern, but everything just seemed to be almost on top of each other. The walls were also very thin and you could clearly hear drunken people loudly talking and walking down the hallway at night. We were also awoken at 8:15 a.m. by a housekeeper who knocked on our door (and all the other doors around us) yelling "HOUSEKEEPING!" She obvoiusly was not using a check-out list... I am giving this a "very good" 4 star review because of the nice lobby, clean facility, and terrific location. However, if you stay at this hotel, beware that there are some teeny tiny rooms-and you may want to inquire about this before you book. Judging from other reviews, there are some larger rooms available at this hotel-I guess we just didn't get one of them...

The lobby is gorgeous...everything from the gym to the bar to the lobby bathrooms were large, elegant, and spacious. The gift shop had a great selection but was insanely overpriced (almost 4 dollars for a granola bar that you can buy a box of for $2.50 in the grocery store!). Parking was also very expensive ($44 including tax per night), but that seems to be the average price for the area. We were very disappointed in the size of the room. We travel a great deal, and this room had to have been the smallest that we have ever stayed in...ever. The bathroom door could barely be closed and the entire setup just made us feel claustrophobic. The tv, chair, bed, and desk were modern, but everything just seemed to be almost on top of each other. The walls were also very thin and you could clearly hear drunken people loudly talking and walking down the hallway at night. We were also awoken at 8:15 a.m. by a housekeeper who knocked on our door (and all the other doors around us) yelling "HOUSEKEEPING!" She obvoiusly was not using a check-out list... I am giving this a "very good" 4 star review because of the nice lobby, clean facility, and terrific location. However, if you stay at this hotel, beware that there are some teeny tiny rooms-and you may want to inquire about this before you book. Judging from other reviews, there are some larger rooms available at this hotel-I guess we just didn't get one of them...

Excellent Staff and Good Central Location

Stayed here to celebrate my 40th birthday. Chocolates and champagne in the room which was a lovely touch. Staff go out of their way to be helpful. Nancy on turn down service was very sweet. Rooms very spacious and within walking distance of Union Square, only a couple of blocks. Noise at night, but nothing out of the ordinary for a city. Would recommend.

Trump Soho A special place

I have stayed at the Trump Soho on 2 occasions .Both have been extremely satisfactory .Both visits were in the summer so I had the benefit of hanging out at the outdoor pool .This was an ideal way to spend a lazy late afternoon sipping a drink while waiting to go out in the evening .The service was excellent & the bar was THE place to be in NY .The rooms were also very comfortable & spacious.We were in a large group & some people told us that some of the rooms did not have privacy doors to the bathrooms .I personally did not see this but I would confirm this with the hotel if this is important to you .I love the location .It is far enough from broadway which can be easily gotten to by cab which were plentiful at the hotel .Also walking distance to Soho & the village .I would definitely recommend the Hotel .It is new & clean & very schique

Trip

Stay was fine, very good breakfast, friendly staff. Very difficult to find motel in the dark and rain. Lot's of traffic and not easily seen from road.

Nicest 3-star in the Hobby area

In traveling weekly for business I have tried all of the 3 star hotels near Hobby airport, and in my opinion the Four Points by Sheraton is by far the nicest. The staff is friendly starting with Ruth at the front counter, and being a newer hotel the rooms are very nice. Great hotel for the price.

Very nice and clean hotel!!

Awesome full breakfast. They had everything we wanted, and the kids loved it. Great pool, well heated, and with stairs on both sides, which was good for the kids. Very new and clean rooms. Helpful staff. By far the best hotel of our entire trip.

Wonderful Weekend

Our stay was wonderful, start to finish! I am so bad with names, but the bellhop (Alex?) was very nice and accommodating, as was the guy at the front desk, Chase. The doormen were also wonderfully helpful. Everything was great. The location, right on the park, felt like a little oasis, but was so close to everything! The only suggestion we would have would be for a mirror over the sofa in the queen deluxe room. But the need for more mirrors may have more to do with three women trying to get ready at the same time as anything else! I will most certainly be coming back to The Bryant Park Hotel the next time I am in NYC.

great location, good price

Stayed recently whilst attending a conference a few block away at a much more expensive hotel It was an excellent hotel, centrally located with good sized rooms etc. The staff were friendly and I had a great room My only complaint was that the awful throw-away cutlery and plates at breakfast. I really think Hampton need to get a grip on their environmental policy because not only does it feel like eating on a cheap airline but I wouldnt imagine it was desirable to be throwing out all that rubbish each day! Anyway, just a small blemish on a great stay which I enjoyed enormously

We were pleasantly surprised !!

After reading a few negative reviews about this hotel, I began to wonder if they had stayed at the Skyline but in another dimension !! We have just returned from a 4 night stay and were more than pleased with our accomodation. Although the Skyline`s exterior has a motel look to it, once you enter the lobby, you feel that you are in a typical Downtown NY hotel. Check-in was fast and courteous. Our double queen sized bed room was on the 3rd floor in the rear 7 storey building. Large, clean, quiet and comfortable (bed was great but pillows could be of higher quality). Reasonably modern decor with flat screen TV with ample channels. No complaints about the bathroom either (other than plastic cups). Room had mini-fridge and free safe but no coffee maker and you had to pay for internet/WIFI. Hell`s Kitchen area is great for restaurants. One block over to 9th Ave. when there are dozens of fine establishments. Also a few blocks to 46th`s Theater District Restaurant Row. Subway located at 50th St. and 8th. Ave. A 6-7 minute walk. Theater district the same distant. We walked to Central Park and Greenwhich Village (both enjoyable long walks and we are both in our mid-60`s) If want a drink before retiring the hotel has a lounge/restaurant or across the street to Druid`s Pub or On The Rocks (nice place for a chat and to listen to jazz C.D.`s). Hell`s Kitchen area might not be Park Ave. but we felt safe and enjoyed being in a locals neighborhood. Our room rate was $190/nite and I understand parking is quite inexpensive for NY. We didn`t check out the pool or gym. Thinking back at our stay, we both agreed that Skyline should be upgraded from it`s 3 Star rating and we would definitely return.

Nice location for good weather

Got a good AAA rate and enjoyed a weekend stay on the waterfront. Rooms are nice and a decent size. Loved the pillow menu. The restaurant was very good, but pricey. The parking was expensive but I guess that is par for the course in that area.

Great Location, Good Service, Rooms too small

The hotel is great, all is clean, everybody was very professional, I recommend this because it is very good the location, the heart of NYC if you want to shop, have fun, go to shows, it is all walking distance and subway is one block away, however my only complain was the the size of the room reminded me like that one from our last cruise ship.... very very very small.. so when you open the door do not have any expectations as you will be disappointing by its size... however all other aspects are great. Also I was with someone that had a birthday those days and they were so nice to send a birthday card, with cold Champagne, 2 glasses and Cheesecake... that was soooooo cute.

Very nice hotel

We stayed here for a couple nights last weekend in a king room. Good size room, especially for NYC. There was a small fridge for the mini bar, but you could fit a couple of your own things in it too. Nice size bathroom and bath products. Ate at Rare for brunch. Loved the french toast. The only thing that wasn't great was the painfully slow elevators. And there was a laundry bin and housekeeping cart left in the hallway outside our room for the entire 2.5 days we were there. Not a huge deal, but looks sloppy and not very 4*. The location is nice. Close walk to Starbucks, Daniels Bagels, Grand Central or the 6 subway line at 33rd & Park. I like the area this hotel is located in a lot.

Great location, confused concept

I'm not sure if this hotel is shooting to be one of the Streeterville/Gold Coast luxury hotels, or it wants to be like one of the River North hot spots. The location is perfect, just a block away from John Hancock building and Michigan Ave. The room was apparently renovated so it was nice and comfy. We had the double room, so the bathroom was HUGE, almost too big that I wish some of the space could be carved out for the actual room. The lobby is tiny, so are the elevators (TINY). But the nice room made up for it so I will ignore. What cannot be ignored is the weird vibe I got from the front desk. I feel like their facial muscles might have been damaged so they don't know how to smile. Maybe they want to put up a snobby front, but it's really not working. Given the pure amount of hotels in Chicago and the inevitable competition, a nice smile to welcome guests as well as a "have a good one" should almost be a requirement for any hotel. The hotel's Drumbar was recently voted Chicago's top roofbar. Maybe I just had bad luck and happened to be on the "drunk floor", but after 3am, there were drunk hotel guest yelling and laughing in the hallway. I would understand that if you are located in River North and most of your guests are there to party. But everyone familiar with the Chicago neighborhood knows Streeterville is NOT where the party's at. So if the front desk works so hard trying to be snobby and upscale, the drunk guests and the party scene definitely don't fit in...

Lovely room facing the River

First, request a room with a view of the River. You might as well have a view, because you will be overpaying for what you get at this hotel. Yes, the room was clean. We paid about 200 a night, which included a lovely breakfast. Parking was 30.00 a night, which was about average in Philly - but you would think you would get some discount staying at the hotel. The hotel is within walking distance of the Old City. Most Hilton hotels give you bottles of water when you arrive, you have to beg for them at this hotel. Nothing is complimentary. We will choose another hotel in Philadelphia for our next trip. You would think that after spending 300.00 at the bar over two nights, that they would comp the parking, but NO!!! Even the parking deck near the REading market (don't miss it), discounts parking once you spend 10.00 at the market. Shameful.

Excellent staff, cozy facility

When you spend as much time on the road as I do (over 200 nights last year) all the cities start to blur into one. I often try to engage the front desk people in a little friendly banter just to break the monotony, but they usually just look at me with that same bored "we have to be here" expression on their faces. Not so with the folks at Hill Country Inn - San Antonio. I was on the tail end of a 6 week road trip, so I had really about had it with being away from home. The ladies at the front desk were so cheerful! They seemed genuinely happy to see me. Especially Denise. I made some lame joke, and she picked up the ball right away. We spent several minutes going back and forth, all in good fun, yet completely professional. It was really nice to be greeted by, and treated as a real human being who was capable of a genuine smile and a heartfelt conversation! Later, when my wife arrived (we came in from opposite directions) she was every bit as cheerful and genuine as she had been with me. We were in San Antonio for my daughter's graduation from Combat Medic training at Fort Sam. When Denise and the other ladies learned of the reason for our visit they warmly congratulated us, and thanked us for our daughter's service, which was very heartwarming. We were here for 3 nights, and my wife mentioned that we'll have to remember this place if we ever come this way again! The rooms themselves are cozy, quaint, and comfortable. The horizontal tongue-and-groove cedar paneling gives you the feeling of being in a cabin rather than a motel room. The sitting area was a very nice bonus, as were the microwave and fridge. Nice property, GREAT experience!

Really is the best!

Yes, this hotel is right in the middle of everything.Yes, you must jump into the mob right from the door. This is Times Square in NYC! The Doubletree is just the best. We arrived very early and simply checked our bags with the bellman. We headed out the door with a bit of direction from the concierge. Hit the subway right outside our door going downtown and across the street going uptown. Couldn't be easier. The room was spacious and comfortable. There is a Starbucks right outside the door and vendors for your morning bagel. We walked or rode the subway everywhere. The theaters are right around the corner as is every type of restaurant. We were recommended John's pizza up the street by the the bellman and it was great and close. If you want in the middle of the mob scene that is Times Square...this is your place. Great service and wonderful staff makes this a real gem in NYC!

Hidden gem in downtown

I can’t forget the sense of disappointment when I saw the concrete, characterless streets of Houston’s downtown when the taxi rolled in to the street on the Saturday afternoon from airport. However, I must say that the hotel compensated for all the concrete gloom as I spent three weeks. It was one of the busiest hotels, I have stayed at. The lobby was grand, the restaurants lively, the bar well stocked and room had the view of the only green patch in whole of downtown. The park in front is not just another green patch, it is where locals turn up with their kids, yoga and aerobic classes happening every evening. People playing sport and tiny concerts happening all the time. The sports lover would never miss a trick. There is a dynamo, base ball stadium within walking distance. Not far (5 mins walk) is the Houston Pavilion with a number of very nice restaurants. All in all, the hotel was a good experience, with good choice of restaurants around. I would recommend the hotel if you have to stay in downtown.
