I have a pair of poplin suit trousers that need to be let out 2" in the waist. I've been considering asking the hotel butler service to send them out and ensure that I get them back within 24hrs or less, but I don't want them outsourcing to some cheap alterationist who will make a mess of my pants. Can anyone recommend a reliable and FAST tailor who can do this, preferably nearby the hotel? It's a simple matter of letting out some of the fabric at the waist, so I don't even really need a fitting and coul potentially leave them with the hotel while out one day, but I'd like to get some suggestions and feedback from others first.

Thank you!
