Ritz is fine, my sense from a visit a several years ago is that it is nicer than the ITC. I felt that it was more like a strong JW Marriott property if that makes sense as a comparison. I think there is also more around the RC in terms of life vs the rather sterile/luxury mall where the 4S is located.
