Overall Score5.0/ 5
In an age when civility is far from the norm, you can find it alive and well in The Berkeley Hotel. Even more than that, I felt welcomed. I met and spoke with several of the staff, which left me with a distinct impression that they cared about the Berkeley. “Translation” They cared about me and my friends. My wife and I will be back.
