Always located in breathtaking locations and with a chateau like architecture they are very iconic. This is my first stay and it was a mixed experience. It goes without saying that 5 star hotels are expensive, and I understand the business decision to have add-ons for premium (i.e. rich) guests, but in a 5 star hotel this should only be done if the regular version (i.e. included with the room) is acceptable. For instance, parking: you have the option of valet parking for premium customers for $26 a day, 2 near by parking lots for $12 a day without in and out privileges and the one included in the room 5-10min (depending where you find spots). Breakfast was reasonable for me, but not great; Cuisine in and out of the room pretty average; nothing really stands out other that the view - and in fact this is the only thing yo pay for.
