Great location - beautiful building with great history.

Lovely getaway. Great service.
Pros:

The only thing I wasn’t completely happy with was the view. It was partial ocean, partial rooftop (room 242). Next time I want to secure complete ocean view. Loved the bathroom marble and bed linen. Maybe next time try to get a larger shower/tub.

Deception and opulence

Historic displays and location.

Lack of mgmt and disrespect with customer, but great location.
Pros:

Location, architecture and decoration

Cons:

Arrived and was notified that they just canceled my reservation- done 3 months earlier and confirmed the prior day. After some time, while I was trying to book another hotel, they could get an inferior room but no discount or manager to discuss the situation - I paid for something that was never delivered and complains were just ignored.

We will never stay here again on a weekend when there might be a reception going on. This is a pricey hotel for you to n
Pros:

We loved the pool area and the hotel was very nice and a great location

Cons:

They had a wedding reception while we were there and even though we were on the 5th floor the walls vibrated from the music until well after midnight and it was impossible to sleep. They need some serious sound proofing in their reception area if they’re going to have receptions deep into the night.

Beautiful Hotel and Great Experience.
Pros:

Love the location. Hotel is beautiful and the restaurant food was amazing. Had dinner and breakfast there. Staff was on top of it. Beautiful bar and great drinks.

Cons:

The shower was strange. No doors at all to shower so it gave a modern vibe. Problem was after you shower our entire bathroom floor was puddled with water. My husband had to use all the towels to clean it up. It was a mess. The bed was comfortable enough. Pillows were not good. When you laid on them they went completely flat.
