Mixed review. The hotel and hotel staff are superb!
And some of the spa staff are wonderful. But just make sure you know what you're buying before going in.
The massage I had was sublime! The girl was awesome (apologies as I can't remember her name). She was polite, professional and an excellent MT.
Then after my massage, I had requested a 30 min facial to give it a try as I had never one before. Well, apparently I was given a 60 min facial and, of course, charged for it. As i was still wonderfully foggy from my massage, i had no clue as to the time. Then when I left the spa, it was all just charged back to the room.
When I went to check out the next day and reviewed the charges, I was very surprised to find that I had been charged more than I had expected. The front desk kindly called up to the spa to discuss the charges and the spa was obviously insistent that they were right. So much so, that the front desk staff person said that she would send me up to discuss with them.
After a terse & brief visit to the spa, I was told, in no uncertain terms, that I received a 60 min facial and so that's what I was charged for, even though I had only booked a 30min one. Oh, and lots of truly insincere "I'm sorrys" but without any move to try and reconcile or make amends for the mixup.
Thankfully, when I went back down to the front desk, the guest services staff person actually listened to what I had to say and offered help in the form of a discount. The cost between a 30 min and 60 min facial is $100 and the discount didn't cover all of that but the offer itself also helped to ease the pain.
I highly recommend the hotel and all of the hotel staff. Just beware of the spa and be very clear on what you're booking AND what you've been charged for before leaving the spa. read more
