8.0
Pros: The hotel is beautiful, with a real air of luxury. At a very affordable price too. However I ate here and will not be repeating the experience. The food was so bland it was like eating cardboard. My guest had a different dish and had the same opinion. It was the most bizarre dining experience I have ever had. It looked appetizing but tasted of nothing. I would also like to comment that although luxurious the hotel is rather stingy, you have to pay for wifi and the business centre. The 20% room service charge was excessive. Poor tv channels too. I'd still come back though as such a gorgeous place in a fabulous location.

Excellent
8.0
Pros: The shoe shine guy is fantastic as is the bellman staff. I almost allowed one front desk girl to ruin my stay with her inability to provide basic customer service but other than that single interaction, everyone was quite amiable. The amenities are fantastic and the neighborhood, The Central West End, would rival any other boutique environment in the US. The rooms are well appointed although I'll admit the floor lamp in my room was broken beyond repair, the alarm clock seemed to inexplicably lose and gain hours on a daily basis, none of the phones worked quite right and when I requested an ottoman for my chair the staff simply said "No".
Excellent
10.0
Pros: The location was very near the hospital. I had one of the newly renovated/decorated rooms. The poolside restaurant was very nice in the evenings. I will stay here again during my next visit.

9.7
Pros: The staff were able to accommodate every request. Our club level suite was well-appointed and comfortable. The club lounge concierges were all very attentive and courteous. Front desk staff was the same. The fitness center, Sante, is an actual fitness club to which hotel guests have access. This club had top-notch equipment and facilities, making this the best hotel gym I've ever experienced. I will stay here again for the gym alone.
An excellent experience overall, and we are looking forward to our next visit.

Cons: I feel like when Sonnesta took over the property they made some cost cutting measures that aren't indicative to running an all inclusive luxury hotel. They seem to rely solely on the innate ability of their staff to anticipate their guests needs. And while exploiting your employees talents is obviously smart I feel that their customer service training for those employees who could use it, is lacking. A hotel representing itself as the Chase does should leave the corner cutting to the Holiday Inn down the street.
