Editorial Review for Hotel 1000 – by Anna Roth

The Scene
The sleek lobby exudes urban elegance from moment guests arrive through the revolving glass doors, featuring contrasting patterns and textures, a see-through glass staircase and bamboo installation by glass artist J.P. Canlis. Guests can mingle in the ground-floor Studio lounge, with its oval fireplace and espresso and wine service, or head upstairs to the quiet Library for relaxation. Downstairs offers a 24-hour fitness center and the Golf Club, a virtual reality golf experience that can accommodate up to four people on each of its two "courses."

The Details
No cost has been spared on the comfortable, classy rooms. A glass window (with an optional electronically controlled shade) separates the bedroom from the bathroom, offering views of the two-person tub that fills from a stream from the ceiling. Rooms are equipped with 40-inch flat-screen HDTVs with Video-On-Demand access, VOIP Internet phones and beds with special lambs wool mattress covers.

Its no surprise that this hotel has great reviews. All the newest ammenities and really swanky rooms. Teh bathroom was incredible! However the front desk staff is not as warm or friendly as they should be. They are efficient but could use some personality. The room service for dinner was excelent though, felt guilty for eatting such fine food in our room. Would go back, but only for special occasions.

My husband and I reserved a suite at hotel 1000 about 3 months in advance for our wedding night, and we were very excited. The hotel is absolutely beautiful, the customer service is not! We arrived on our wedding night late (as we should) and were asked for a credit card, unfortunately my new husband left his card at the bar (our fault clearly), the staff said they needed any card or we could not stay! They assured me they would only put $1 on my card, and we could get his card in the morning. So I gave the desk my card. The next day we got his card and they charged it the amount for the room. They had also charged my card for the room the night before (without telling me), and over drafted my account. After I spoke to them they took the amount off my card, but would not pay the overdraft fee. The following day a charge of $200 appeared on my account, over drafting it AGAIN! When I called the manager he said it was a 'smoking' fee! My husband nor I smoke and were not even around people who smoke that night! Outraged and 2 hrs away from leaving on our honeymoon, we finally got them to take the fee off, again they would not pay for the overdraft fees and did not act sorry for the situation at all. The managers were never available and the front desk staff was not helpful.. not what you want to deal with on your wedding night, when your spending $500 on a room!

Pros: Beautiful!

Cons: Bad service, unavailable managers, stressful
