Perfect location, historic hotel, great staff, walk to movies, great places to eat, free parking. Just excellent! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r578664 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r448458 This Hotel was like a dream come true. The staff were most helpful and curteous of any I have even encountered. Rooms were marvelously large and well appointed. The little special touches like the monogrammed Towels were a wonder. Bathrobes were luxurious, soft and toasty. We got the Romance package were presently surprised by all the detail. Our bed was turned down and strown with fragrant rose petals. The Restaurant is quiet and the chef does a wonderful job. Everything we tried was past our expectations. I have wanted a trip like this for years and now that I have experienced it we will continue to be patrons of this Marvelous Hotel. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r448458 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r448459 poor conditions overall. they are going thru and extensive remodel they told us in january , but i have to say this is at best 2 star place. if you are used to 4 star properties and have discerning taste do nto stay here you will be very disappointed. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r448459 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r1129427 pros: location, staff, clean comfortable beds & roomsWe have stayed here twice and each time have enjoyed our stay. The lobby is very cute & the staff has always been very helpful. The rooms are very spacious. Though, they are rather dark and the furniture isn't what you would expect after being in the lobby. The beds are very comfortable. The location cannot be beat for location to the plaza. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r1129427 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r578665 I have been staying at the Raphael for years. I used to come when I was very little. I have great memories from then and recent trips. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r578665 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r578666 This is billed as a fine boutique hotel. In location, architecture and hype, it is. In actual reality the room was dingy, the facility was not up to the 'attitude' and the restuarant was remarkably snobbish for a merely acceptable dining. experience. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r578666 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r448460 I hated it because it was way to much money you Guys need to lowar it just a bit and I will come back every weekend, but the rooms were very nice. Thank You http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r448460 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/The_Raphael_Hotel/r1129437 The suite we stayed in at this hotel was surprisingly spacious and beautiful (there was even a separate sitting room). The staff here were very nice and courteous. The breakfast here was great. The beds were very comfortable. The price is pretty affordable. The location cant be beat. I will return.
