Radisson

This hotel is a good value for the money - very nice rooms and a beautiful lobby and garden area. However, it is definitely a lean operation. While the service is friendly, the hotel seems relatively understaffed and not particularly well organized.\n\nIf you are willing to put up with some service wrinkles, it's a nice place to stay.

This Japanese hotel is located in the heart of Japantown. Surrounded by Japanese gardens and priceless art work, this hotel makes you feel like your in Japan. With a staff of vast cultural backgrounds you get special attention all around fronm the greetings to the goodbyes.

Pros: Japanese deep tub, Japanese massages, inexpensive

Cons: location, no lunch service

I've only stayed in a garden-view suite (the priciest), so I don't know about the normal rooms. The bathroom (if you can call it that) had the deep Japanese tub, a shower you could have played racquetball in, a sauna (yes, wooden with hot rocks. I'm not kidding), dual vanities, etc. Amazing. The rooms are well-appointed. Here's a tip: If you leave the living room lights on and shut the rice paper screens separating the living area from the bedroom, you get a really great light quality. Just a tip. I'm returning there in a few days with my fiance, and we can't wait.
