We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this hotel! From the warm welcome to the impeccable service, everything was great. The highlight of our visit was celebrating our anniversary, and the staff went above and beyond to make it special. A heartfelt thanks to Chanel for the thoughtful gesture of the sparkling wine and a beautiful card. It truly made our celebration unforgettable. The room, amenities, and overall experience were outstanding. We can’t wait to return and create more wonderful memories at this exceptional hotel.

There was a 40th birthday party happening and appreciated that the music was done by 10pm. When I called the front desk to ask when the music would be done, I am assured 10pm. Don’t get me wrong the music was good but extremely loud. Party was on the 2nd floor, I was on the 5th floor.
