Thanks again for sharing!
Much the same as you. Their restaurants and Top of the Mark looked very enticing. The rest of the hotel (from what I saw) looks like its due a refurbish. Mentioned this to the manager whom I met, and was met with a "it's happening soon". Nice place to have a wedding though, nice ballrooms.
I didn't get to see the St Regis - didn't even notice it while driving/walking around, likewise with Four Seasons. I also wanted to check out Hotel Vitale but unfortunately did not have the time. I'll have to map these to see where they are located - probably right under my nose as I was walking around.
Copy your sentiments regarding Campton Place - it's a real shame, the property has potential. They have the service sector down, and its naturally boutique nature can really push it towards the top.
