The Chesterfield is a Boutique Hotel. As such it is small, quaint, and very themed. This one's theme happens to be fertility gods... So if you're embarassed easily or homophobic, you may want to avoid staying here. I loved the place!
The lobby doubles as a Safari Bar. Wooden statues, tribal masks, animal prints, oh my. FUN! This place is a blast just to look at. They had a decorator with an outlandish, decadent sense of humor and it works delightfully well for folks like me. heh. At night you can get free drinks at this bar if you show them your room key. Another major plus. And you can smoke in here. That's what I'm talkin' about! So sit and sip your free drink while trying not to glance at the nekkid wood dude in the corner. The plasma TV set to the Fashion Channel is a nice diversion...
The bed was quite comfy and I flat adored the soft downy duvet. The pillows (4 of them) were the kind you just sink right in to. mmmmmmmmm nice.
I'd never heard of a rain bath before but I've now been convinced. This is a huge shower head in the center of the ceiling pointing straight down and fairly strong. It's heavenly. I should warn you though: do remove anything from the bathroom that you don't wish to get soaked first. heh.
No pool, but it does have a sun deck with a hot tub on the roof.
Rack rates run around $249, but you can find deals down to $39 during low season.
PROS: Fun! Great location
CONS: May offend some folks....
