I have stayed here many times but not since the renovations and even then it was a great stay! The Staff was fantastic and welcoming, we received an early check-in, food and beverage credit PLUS a room upgrade. The room was spectacular, The Pfister King Suite ... we hardly wanted to leave it. The history and overall vibe of this hotel is wonderful, plus a great lobby bar with several dining options on-site. We can't wait for our next stay and will be back.

The Pfister is a classic place to stay with very convenient amenities and located well with restaurants, etc. I love the Spa services; top rate, reasonably priced (make sure you put in a reservation - they are busy). The staff seem happy - we see the same employees and it is A pleasure; what tells me the hotel is doing them right. Thank you. I look forward to our next stay at the Pfister! šŸ˜Š
