Andaz has a better appointed bathroom, if that's important to you. At GH, it's luck of the draw in terms of amount of counter space available.

As a diamond member, Andaz offers $15 credit or 1000 points for diamond amenity. GH offers the typical bottle of wine + small bites. Andaz offers up to $75 for breakfast, including room service, while GH offers the lounge option with breakfast and evening hors d'oeuvres.

GH charges $2 for luggage storage, which is waived for GP elite members.

+1 for Andaz.

Good to know. I ended up at the Kimpton Eventi which was just fine. Very hospitable but no lounge was a bit of a bummer. Was mostly a place to crash during the conference I attended.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions
