Christopher Lucki Review of St.Francis Hotel
I am always happy to return to the Westin St Franc...
I am always happy to return to the Westin St Francis and insist that I stay in the original structure. (Hence I can't comment on the new 1970 tower in the rear). As for the original structure of the hotel, the St Francis is an awesome blend of historical detail with modern comfort. The only disappointment I had upon my recent stay was that the gold leaf railings of all stairwells and balaclavas were painted over in an odd *Soft grey* colour. I realise gold leaf is expensive but feel it should've been maintained on the lower stairwells and especially in the main lobby balconies.
The old portion of the hotel is said to be haunted and during my last stay (March 6-9, 2020) I admit that I experienced no less than FOUR situations which were unexpected... and yes, my room was on the 12th floor. Two situations did shock me but, I was never uncomfortable or "scared". If there are ghosts, they're friendly and just want to make themselves known.
