Service is over the top. Daisuke, the guest services manager runs the hotel with precision and never fails to take care of his guests. The rooms are beautiful and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Dyson hairdryers are just the beginning. A beautiful spread of hors d’ oeuves are serves every afternoon in the lounge. We are grateful to have found this hotel and will definitely be back.

The staff was amazing! On a scale of 1-10, they get an 11! It is obvious that the Fauchon brand puts a lot of emphasis on training their staff and it shows. From the cleaning staff (room was spotless) to the concierge staff (special shout out to Momoka and Daisuki) who greatly care about meeting the needs of guests.
