Lisa, Dec 2017
Pros (+) I always stay here completely love it great beds, rooms is large and comfortable and the onsite restaurant is top Notch! Will be back for sure
Cons (-) Room was a tad cold this time but only because it's winter and the room was on the outside facing wall of the hotel. I'd recommend an extra blanket if you're street facing with a few windows.

Pros (+) We were in town for a wedding and gifted our reservation for Hotel Palomar to the newlyweds for the evening after their wedding. The staff at Hotel Palomar was fantastic- they quickly and easily added names to the reservation and a bottle of prosecco and lovely note was in the room when they arrived. They loved the room and we loved knowing they were well taken care of!
Cons (-) No complaints!

Joanna, Nov 2016
Pros (+) Absolutely LOVED staying here. My boyfriend and I stayed here after the marathon. Bottled water when we arrived, champagne and the staff upgraded our room! We got there 3 hours earlier for check-in and because our Queen room wasn't ready yet and my boyfriend was visibly exhausted from the marathon, they gave us a King room that was ready. The rooms are the perfect size, comfortable bed, clean bath...
Cons (-) 18% gratuity and 5$ service charge placed on the food service is a bit excessive. The lady (who was so sweet) brought the tray into our room and had me sign a receipt that had a tip option on it. Just mad it a little uncomfortable. It didn't take away how amazing the food was though!
