This really is a beautiful hotel. We have stayed in it several times while attending conferences. That is the catch, when it is on an expense account, it is great. But their prices are just out of line for out-of-pocket travelers (I think expense accounts are their market). It isn't the room rates that are so shocking, but rather the food, alcohol, extras. $4 for 8 ounces of milk (a small carton like you would get at a school cafeteria), $4 for a small bottle of soda (mini bottle). $15 for a appetizer of 3 medium shrimp. All fine if you dont have to pay for it (we didn't luckily), but insane if you have to. Otherwise, its a very nice hotel. The staff is so polite and helpful at every interaction. And the rooms are comfortable (although we only ended up with a view once, sadly). The food is just ok, honestly. Maybe a small step above standard hotel food. Overall its a really nice place to stay, as long as you can avoid having to pay for all the extras.
Pros: Beautiful, comfortable, great staff!, wonderful views in some rooms
Cons: cost for beverages/food/extras
