We stayed at the Palace for two nights. The hotel lobby is beautiful, but we were surprised the room wasn't! We had two double beds, which we found too small to fit in. The room was 'tired looking' and the crown molding looked like it was hanging from the ceiling. The bathroom was old and the water would accumualte in the bath tub when we took a shower, which felt quite disgusting... there was also no ventilation in the bathroom, so to use the mirrors we had to wait 1/2 an hour for all the steam to evaporate. I guess I expected more after seeing all the rave reviews. And last but not least, there are hidden costs and one cannot assume anything is free (e.g. WIFI connection). The restaurant was extremely expansive -- we paid $112 for breakfast, which we found outrageous! (we were charged $17 for two soft drinks!!) My recommendation if you use this hotel -- eat out!!!
