The staff at the Joule is absolutely amazing! The facility it’s a walk through art exhibit with beauty everywhere you look! The rooms are nice, clean, and worth every penny. The restaurants in the hotel itself were delicious and convenient. The highlight for me though was the staff. They are super friendly, extremely accommodating, and show genuine interest in you and your stay. Have a question, ask the concierge. Their knowledge of local food and attractions is endless and extremely helpful if unfamiliar with the area. I highly recommend staying at this amazing establishment.

The Jewel is definitely a five star hotel to me. One of the best I’ve ever stayed in, the best service I’ve ever had, and love all the art and scenery in the area and in a hotel. I will be back to stay there again.

The hotel is beautiful and well maintained. The highlight was the front desk. Alessandra (hope I spell her name right) and her colleague were so lovely since I arrived at the hotel. They were exceptionally attentive and did more than any hotel staff would do to make me feel welcome. When I said I didn’t have anything to eat the whole day, they suggested the food and ordered it for me. If I was based in Dallas, I would hire them to work for me. Remarkable customer experience.

Don’t drive your car to this hotel!

Everything was fine except the mattress was not comfortable and the bill for valet parking was outrageous. I was not informed of the $65/night charge at the front desk when I checked in so I was astonished at checkout. I stay in hotels all over the world and country and have NEVER paid that much for a valet. And never will!
