For a city run on corrupt private healthcare, this building fell below expectation. The whole vibe was good for about 20 years ago. But I kept running into things that just made me feel like, this $230/night isn't worth it. The coffee machine in the room was old, there wasn't stir sticks, and the quality of the coffee and creamers etc. was 1 star hotel-esque. There was no water in the gym and I almost passed out (LOL). The pool was beautiful but the hot tub was quite dirty. There was no pen by my notepad in my room. I asked the concierge if there was anywhere to get food in the city past 10PM and they said no, but I had already found 2 places prior to asking her and they didn't offer to look for me. The person working valet parking was extremely kind and helpful however!

Kahler Grand IS Grand :)
The front desk clerk was absolutely amazing! She was so helpful in allowing us to get into our room early. We had appointments that had a very large gap of time. If she hadn't let us in, we would have had to sit in a waiting room for several hours. She helped us on our check out and held our bags, as well. The hotel was very comfortable and I was very happy to be able to just walk down to the subway level to get to our appointments.

Mixed experience
The hotel was fine in a bland generic way. The room was cold - I had to ask for extra bedding - twice. And reception was a ghost town - no one there for check out.
