This hotel screams San Francisco. It's decor is light and open and airy which brings the feel of the city indoors. My favorite part was my window seat which looked out onto the street, since I was there for a week on business I found myself relaxing in the same spot most nights! This place is by no means flashy and hip, yet it still held an essence of chic and modern-ess. I must say that I had never heard of the place until I was searching around expedia and found a good rate. Since then I have been planning my next trip and I have found equally goos rates on Quikbook.com as well as Hotels.com.
The Taj is beautiful and both the restaurant and bar are great (the warm nuts and olives during happy hour are incedible), but what really distinquishes this hotel is the service. The entire staff goes out of their way to assist you. They even loaned me a laptop to use when mine personal one couldn't get internet. I would stay again.
I was set up to stay at the Taj Residency Bangalore and stayed there for about 3 1/2 weeks, with weekend stays at the Taj Exotica in Goa and the Oberoi in Agra. The Taj hotels practice what they preach; excellent customer service, delicious food, gorgeous amentities and reasonable prices. You'll have higher rates in peak season, but these hotels are well worth it. Some hidden surprises where how helpful the staff were, running to get souvenirs for me that I couldn't find, setting up DHL to come to the hotel to coordinate shipping items and providing reccomendations on things to do and places to see. I plan to go back to India and stay at the Mumbai/Dehli locations.
Until this year we found the restaurant to be one of the very best in SF and dined there many times. In May '06 we had one of the finest dinners ever--on a par with Michael Mina and Gary Danko. In May '07 we returned and were terribly disappointed. The new chef has ruined it. The choices on the prix fixe menu were limited and oddly priced. A $10 surcharge for lamb and no beef unless for a table of 3 or more. Bizarre! I prefer small portions but not the skimpy ones we were served. Our captain/waiter was knowledgeable and gracious but over-extended with too many tables. She wasn't able to give us the service we expected and which, I am sure, she would have liked to give. We shall certainly not return until and unless they find a new and competent chef.
I'm from San Francisco, but have been living away for quite some time now. I've always wanted to try the Campton Hotel, and so this last trip home a few weeks ago I did. What a great hotel. Obviously, the location is perfect. But from the bellmen greeting you at the door, to the VERY helpful and gracious front desk staff, to the beautiful open-floor hallways, everything appears first class. While I received a room away from the elevators (as requested), some of the other rooms nearer the elevators appeared a bit small and may be noisy. But my room, while also a little small, was beautifully appointed. At finer hotels, I like to order room service and just relax, and so I did here. The room service food was surprisingly unbelievable. I ordered a light meal with a glass of wine, and the wine came in a very expensive, beautiful fine wine glass. With so many top hotels seemingly worried about in-room theft, it was refreshing to see a top hotel actually trust and treat its guests with respect and fine appointments. There are many top hotels in San Francisco and other major cities which could learn a lot from this hotel and the way it treats its guests and operates its business. Unfortunately, these other hotels will never do that, choosing instead to live off the laurels of their past or try to hood-wink us with run-down furnishings, phony accents and obnoxious attitudes. This hotel is the real deal, and I highly recommend it.
This lovely hotel was not just a place for my family and I to sleep. It felt like an actual home, with its kind staff,understanding maids, beautiful view, and organized rooms/bathrooms. My family loved this hotel. It was a great experience too. Also, it was so incredibly cheap, that I was amazed at the quality! I loved it, and you will too!!!
The location was perfect and the staff went out of their way to assist us with information on ski packages, tours and shopping. The service was great! The complimentary breakfast was a real treat and a money saver. We met other guests from all over the United States and enjoyed visiting with them.
The service at Campton Place was almost over the top - they simply wanted to do everything possible and then some! The room was large as was the bed (I'm quite tall) and everything was very luxurious. The location was truly amazing.
What a relaxing weekend we had when we went back to San Francisco, our hometown for a family reunion. We stayed at the Campton Place and boy, what a treat. The rooms were comfortable, the beds helped you melt into sleep. Service was impeccable, they anticipated our needs before we even knew it was a need.... If I had a greater budget, I would stay there everytime I went back home for a visit. Maybe they'll let me earn credit for a stay everytime I write a great review or refer a freiend, lol (I should be so lucky). If you have a very special occasion coming up, an anniversary, a honeymoon, a second honeymoon, a secret liason; or a not so secret liason, stay at the Campton Place, you can't go wrong.
Very seldom restaurants perform the same quality of food in Dine About Town event as their more expensive charges, Campton Place is the exception. Although Campton Place only offered lunch in the program, it lived up to its good quality of work. The ambience was roomy and bright. Although the restaurant's not that big, with abundant space between tables, diners like me feel very comfortable in moving around or having a normal conversation. So I had a cocktail mixed with Red Bull, vodka and Cranberry juice to start and Wing had an appletini, they both were good. Then for appertizer, we tried Butternut Squash Soup with Toasted Almonds and Goat Cheese and Spinach and Persimmon Salad and Candied Pecans. The soup was very creamy and the toasted almonds provided the extra crunchiness and aroma. The salad was all right, but nothing too special. For entree, we had Glazed Chicken with Ragout of Wild Mushrooms, Brussels Sprouts, Bacon and Pearl Onions and Striped Bass with a Warm Chicory Potato Salad and White Anchovy Vinaigrette. I personally liked the chicken more since the glaze added crispiness to the skin, and it mixed well with the juicy soft chicken breast meat in the chicken sauce. The veggie was also very tasty submerged in the chicken sauce and the bacon bits added so much more flavor and texture to the entire dish! The bass was made the same way with crispy skin and soft meat, but somehow it was not too enticingly well mixed with the salad. For dessert, we had Chocolate Hazelnut Mille Feuille and a mixed selections of cheese. The mile feuille had a creative pineapple brush on the plate, which brought out nice smell before we tasted the dish. The selection of cheese was also nice and amazingly even Wing liked it. I was particulary pleasantly surprised by the awesome quality of coffee. Overall, we both agreed that Campton Place was much better than Bonchou in LV.
