Super service! Employees are super helpful, friendly and trained. Couldn't ask for more. The location is awesome and the rooms from the lobby until the Pavillon just top of the top.
SwitzerlandThis was an amazing hotel and we had an amazing experience. It is certainly on the high side as far as cost, but certainly the service and amenities were what you would expect if paying top dollar. The decor throughout was incredible and recently updated. I would recommend you splurge--it was truly a memorable experience. You can't beat the location.
