Staff was very friendly and went out of their way to make sure all was well. Also nice touches, like the candies, the breakfast snacks, and various wine and cordial hours were lovely. The room itself (at Enclave) without windows was a little eerie; next time I'd get one with windows.

Staff was very nice. Construction noise was irritating outside at 7:30 am. Not being able to park nearby was irritating but understandable as parking is limited downtown. Our room was fun. Big enough for two of us. Thanks for a lovely stay.

I have decided the Vendue is probably my favorite hotel in the continental US. The main reason is the service. From the welcome champagne, to the bottle in my room, to the breakfast hung our doors each morning and ice and macrons delivered at nite...its just a great stay. When you add the art work, rooftop bar and great staff that meet your every wish (along with another glass of champagne), I will try to stay here each time I return.
