The room itself was also very "old world" and not modern at all. I wasn't expecting a new modern Park Hyatt room but the room we had was not even close to the pictures shown on the Hyatt website. The wallpaper was white with green, blue, gold and brown patterns. The room was very large so we didn't get too bothered by the decor since we were only there for one night. I just can't understand that the rooms have not been updated to match the decor of the lobby area. What a hodgepodge of colors and designs! Diamond Amentity was a bottle of Cab and a box of brownies.
Didn't get a very good nights sleep due to noise in the hallway and a fire alarm at 4:30am. The fire alarm announcement continued for over 30 minutes before they finally announced that it was a false alarm. Evidently this is a common problem at the hotel if you search the forum.
To summarize...hotel rooms need to be updated to fit in with the lobby area and the Park Hyatt vibe. Beware of fire alarm issues!
I hadn't been to this property in quite a while - thanks for the update. Do you know if they are still renovating the property? Perhaps that could explain much of the disjointed nature of the property. I just looked at the pictures on the website and actually find the "lobby" pictures rather startling since the decor really doesn't fit with the architecture of the building. I'm not a fan of the "traditional" decor but it works in this property - much like the former PH Stanhope.
I do agree that the fire alarm issue really needs to be corrected - this has been going on for years.
