The hotel was centrally located near Republic Plaza. Was able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Room was very nice. Asked for a quiet room away from elevators which they handled for us. Staff was very attentive. Breakfast was sit down and order which was a nice change from other self serve that we experienced. Overall a nice hotel

The hotel is beautiful. We checked in early to find out we had been assigned 302 across from the elevator which according to the map of the floor as the noisiest and the smallest room. We asked to be moved and the desk said they would “try”. Sorely disappointed.

We loved everything about this hotel! The stunning room, the beauty, the breakfast, the drinks, the spa & the kindness of every staff member we spoke to! Everyone went completely above and beyond to make sure our visit was the absolute best! We have travelled quite a bit & I would honestly say this is one of, if not the, top hotel we’ve ever stayed in. The bed & the pillows are a great test of a good hotel, and believe me, they did not disappoint! Please do not believe the negative reviews you read regarding this beautiful hotel; they cannot be from anyone that stated here. We cannot wait return to La Gemme!

This was our fourth and final time staying at this hotel. Front desk staff was not helpful (almost rude)and it would have been nice to get some kind of recognition for our loyalty. All high end hotels are proud to say that their guests are loyal. Not La Gemma.Our room was tiny and extremely noisy . Still a very well maintained hotel in an excellent location.
