This is the worst Ritz-Carlton I have ever stayed in, bar none! Look at the air vents of the air conditioner, the spider webs on the windowsill, and the glass table top!

The overall environment of the hotel is ok. We stayed in Villa 4. The soundproofing in the room was very poor. We could hear the footsteps and water running from the upper floors clearly. Another thing that was a bummer was that there was a resort fee, which we found out when we checked out. The parking fee of $70 is very normal in the United States.

Absolutely incredible experience. Amazing services, great food, beautiful rooms. We were taken care of in a professional way. Special thanks to room service, you made our night. It was my husband's birthday and we had so much fun

The catering is a mess, there is no cooking, the breakfast is cold, and the room does not even provide a hot water kettle. It's also an American hotel. I stayed at the Four Seasons in New York. At least the restaurant is OK and the service is online. Very disappointed with Ritz Carlton 😞.

The hotel I booked for a friend is relatively close to where I want to go. So we chose here. The Ritz-Carlton brand has always been a very good brand. The service industry is good.
