Easy check out. The room was clean and quiet. I absolutely love the fragrance the lobby has when you’re coming down from your room.

Lovely, charming stay with great service!

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was cozy and comfortable. Chic design throughout and a historic property. We had great service and staff was welcoming and accommodating for our early check-in request. Very convenient location. The restaurant downstairs is delicious also. Minor downside was a slightly noisy AC and just one elevator working- it’s an old-fashioned one and the doors are kind of heavy. Overall I would stay again for sure!
Sarah, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay and relax

Clean room. Slightly smaller bathroom than I expected. Very comfortable bed and just enough room. Very fun historic hotel with a beautiful lobby. The manual elevator was an interesting treat. The staff was very accommodating and helpful.

Great location. Friendly staff.
Veronica, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We love the Palihotel group of properties and were really excited to try this new one. The rooftop is AMAZING and the quirky elevators from 1913 were fun, but there were some weird design flaws (such as the decades of paint made it literally impossible to close the bathroom window, so it was swung open with a drop down from the 8fth floor - there was no latch and no way to close it, even after calling the front desk). Overall a cute spot for the cost, as this was a fraction of what most Pali properties have been per night. The bar was also wonderful and we loved the cocktail selection.
