Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the suite I stayed in was of nice size, the rooms were so small that we had a hard time dressing. The service, however, was incredible, especially from the moment I walked in and was greeted with champagne. The location was perfect, with easy access to both the beach and the shopping district. The dining experience was fantastic, offering great dining options at a reasonable price.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms had an old-school Palm Beach decor, and though they were small, they were comfortable. Facing a wall in the back was not ideal at times. The service was top-notch, always courteous and professional, with a genuine touch. The location was fantastic, just two blocks from the beach, and the dining experience, with reasonable prices, was one of the best. However, the dining could have been more varied, and the beach chairs had to be claimed early. A great choice for a few nights in Palm Beach with some minor inconveniences.
The hotel was a delightful surprise with its comfortable rooms and superb service. Although the rooms were a bit small, the view of the car park added a touch of character. The location was ideal, just steps away from Worth Avenue and the beach, offering a quiet and restful summer retreat. The dining experience was exceptional at the Colony Hotel restaurant, providing a super dining option without the need to travel far, all at a very reasonable price for Palm Beach.
The hotel was a complete ripoff just to get a king-size bed, but it's in a beautiful setting with a pool/patio surrounded by Bougainville. The rooms are not so nice and did not look anything like it did in the pictures.
When my wife and I visited along with another couple, we found the hotel to have top-notch service and a warm feeling atmosphere. The rooms were on the small side, but we were guaranteed a king-size bed. The location, just a block off Worth Avenue, was superb in the bourgeois center of Palm Beach, Florida. We loved the fabulous dining experience at the French pastry restaurant which had very reasonable prices.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great moments and a few drawbacks. The attention to detail in the rooms was not very satisfying, although they did offer lovely amenities and a nice view. The service was incredible from the start, and the location couldn't have been better, with everything I wanted to explore within easy reach. The dining experience was a highlight, but some aspects left room for improvement.
I was delighted by my stay at the hotel. The location is fantastic, with easy access to the beach and nearby restaurants. The rooms are impeccably clean and cozy, and the staff's friendliness added to the overall positive experience. The dining options, while good, could benefit from a wider selection. The well-maintained pool area was a great perk, although Wi-Fi being an additional cost was a minor drawback.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel! The rooms, although a tad small, were comfortable. The service was exceptional, with a sweet note and a bottle of Veuve waiting for me. The location was beautiful, just two blocks from the beach, and the dining experience in the Polo Lounge was lovely.
