Five Star Alliance Client Reviews - The Ritz Hotel

Ed Mc, Dublin, Ireland. January, 2007

"The attention to detail was the most surprising thing about our stay at the Ritz. Even the small thing like baths robes being hung instead of folded like in other hotels, and weighing scale in the room I am sure is to make sure you do not note get carried away enjoying the great food at the hotel"
