Loved the cocktails in the library and sitting by the pool relaxing at sunset.

The restaurant experience was absolutely awful - we sat on the patio for lunch and after ordering, we were ignored for the entire meal. No drink refills were offered, we asked for extra items that were never brought out and it took ages to track down a server to even get our bill. We also did not have silverware nor napkins at the table even once the food was brought out - we waited several minutes as the food was getting cold until they could locate them for us. Very disappointing for that price point - won’t eat in the hotel restaurant again.

Hotel was beautiful, service was excellent, restaurants and bar were great, great artisanal feel and design. Option of texting for service instead of calling was also great. The scents in the hotel was sophisticated and not cloying with happens in lots of other hotels.

Gift shop had tip option added to payment process which was a little odd.

We dined at the Emma Supper Restaurant and the service was wonderful but the food was INCREDIBLE! Party of four enjoyed 2 appetizers that were off the charts good and each one of us were completely overjoyed with dinner! Great menu! Some unusual offerings, we were so happy we tried the restaurant at the Emma! You won’t be disappointed!

Wonderful staff rooms and bar area outstanding. Outside area with fireplace was nice

Gym. Only one elliptical when they could fit at least two. With a 5 star hotel one would think they put some extra consideration when constructing workout facility. Anyone who works out could address this facility pretty easily

The whole atmosphere of the hotel exceeded my expectations! I would recommend a room with a balcony as it comes with a fireplace. We are planning on returning when the weather is cooler to take advantage of that.

Emma is right in the heart of the Pear district and exudes history, comfort and class. It was an absolute pleasure to stay at this hotel. The staff were exceptional - food and drinks delicious and the bed was to die for. We will definitely be back to this hotel.

Loved the fresh healthy food at Supper. Thought all the staff had excellent interpersonal skills. Cannot wait to return for another visit!

Wish there was a tub in the restroom.
