    Best location, impeccable service - I adore this hotel

    I have now stayed at the Hay-Adams twice in the last two years, and this is one of my favorite hotels. On this trip, I stayed by myself in a very reasonably priced room on the 6th floor. My sister stayed in a HUUUGE suite on the same floor. Why...
