    First time to have breakfast buffet on this hotel, encounter it was on strike, barricaded , open table didn’t advertise it’s was on STRIKE. Anyway buffet line is staffs from temporary crews brought in by hotel manager and food are cold instead of hot or warm. Limited buffet line, pastry, fruits, Server don’t even come and asked you if everything ok. Server stay inside the cubicle until being call. No manager on site. It’s chaotic, won’t be going back , waste of my $$ money and seeing the place so beautiful but barricade from entrance to mid portion.

    The food was so bad. I would have preferred to go to any other breakfast spot. It is definitely not worth the price. The only great thing is how beautiful inside was but this place was not worth the price. There was also a labor strike from employees in front of the hotel and we could hear them yelling from inside. It ruins the atmosphere; and the food was not good.

    Where were all the flowers that beautified and popularized the Garden Court? Service was minimal and the food not worth the price tag for the buffet. Sadly, we were disappointed with the experience as it did not live up to our expectations. We will not be back again.

    Mediocre breakfast buffet. I’m glad it was included in my room rate. I would not have paid any exorbidant cost for that breakfast. It was a very pretty area in the hotel though.

    This place has gone down in time , and this last time is going to be my last visit for brunch, first of all I had made reservation for 10:15 and arrived 10:10 just in case , however end up to be told to stand in a long line with all the people who had no reservations , by the time I reached the hostess was 10:35!! Seated by 10:40 ! Very tight place and noisy , the food was poor quality , eggs were very cold , and everything looked old and dry , even bagels were tiny and not much variety , no berries in fruit sections either expected much more for $44 per person this I wouldn’t pay more than $15 per person . I was quite embarrassed since I had invited a business client, and was very disappointed. Then had to pay another $30 for parking as well … btw no fresh juice is served not even fresh squeezed OJ! Took about half hour to get the attention of the waiter to pay the bill and leave ! Horrible experience

    Not worth the money. We went to a table that was dirty on the floor as well as my chair. One of the servers told me it was because a kid was there before me, but not sure how this was relevant as they should clean it before we were seated. The food was ok as they seemed to prepared and plated a while before serving. The placement looked like they came from IKEA. The tea was the only thing I like ( I had the Nobo Whole Fruit). For the price and where the tea place located, I felt underwhelming.
