Overall, the stay was great! Everyone was very nice and accommodating. The bar and lobby area were amazing. Location everything! The views from my corner king room were stunning and made everything worth it⊠I was a little disappointed with the dated and plain condition of the room itself. It was my first time staying at a Ritz and I guess maybe I was expecting the best room ever.
My husband and I are very casual people. When on vacation we dress for comfort not buisness. We had one of the best suites the hotel offered. We couldn't dine at the hotel because we only had casual clothes. My tennis shoes, shorts and top were Louis Vuitton. Not throwing money out there but I was wearing over 6k in clothes and shoes and a 70k presidential Rolex, I was wearing more than the people who refused us service probably made in a year. I get having a dress code but this hotel is in such need of a makeover to even have a dress code. The carpets are so stained it was repulsive. One security gaurd blocked the door to the hotel and wouldn't let us through. He asked can i help you and we said no we are just going to our room and he literally said "you have a room here?" Just because my husband was wearing nike wind pants and a nautica t-shirt. Four seasons it is for me i have never been treated with anything but respect there.
The building itself is gorgeous. A testament to bygone era grandeur. However, inside the rooms are lacking,. Worn, dated furnishings and mismatched decor, cheap, low grade towels, all were a disappointment compared to other Ritz Carlton properties. Hotel rooms need an update.i paid $1300 for one night in a suite, I was expecting Ritz-Call to luxury. Instead I got basic hotel amenities.
