I've stayed here 3 times now. My first stay this year was as a platinum, got upgraded to a "cool corner" suite, which is one room, but is very nice as the desk faces the water. (Well, half the cool corners face the water, the other half face a construction zone). The decor and floor-to-ceiling glass is great. But there are several construction sites around the hotel which does lend to dirty glass! The only other issue is the lighting in the room, which is overly complicated.
Service has been good to excellent for me.
Valet parking is free, which is fantastic. (and its the only option, there is no self parking). The valet attendants always seems a bit surprised and/or awkward when I tip them - so they don't even seem to expect the tips.
The restaurant are excellent. I agree that The Market just has fanstastic menu items, including two good Hamour dishses (the local fish).
Overall I'd totally recommend this place, especially for those who like modern design.
