The Chanler at Cliff Walk

We stayed here for our 5th wedding anniversary and it exceeded expectations. The ocean-facing room was beautifully decorated and incredibly quiet. Waking up and walking straight onto the Cliff Walk with coffee in hand felt surreal. Staff left a handwritten note and complimentary champagne, which made the stay feel personal. Service was attentive but never intrusive.

The Chanler is our go to place for personal celebrations-our anniversary, birthdays, "We need a break" days. Everything about the place is so well done. Attention to detail is evident everywhere. The staff is personable and gracious. The decor is beautiful and the restaurants are special. Cara, the main food attraction is the best we have ever encountered (and we have been to all fifty states and many countries around the world looking for fine dining). The food of the nine course Chef's Table dinner was simply the best we have ever had. Each course was beautifully presented (as food, not sculpture!) and just delightful. Chef Jasinski and his staff explained each preparation and his pleasure in his work and his interaction with his staff which we observed from our table enhanced the whole

Hands down the nicest place I’ve ever stayed! The staff was very well mannered, very courteous and professional with amazing hospitality from everyone we interacted with! The hot tub outside was very lovely and clean, even in the cold months, the jets in the tub made for a bougie-feeling bubble bath, the shower was very spacious, bed was the coziest I’ve had at a stay away from home, and the fireplace made the whole room feel like home. The hot chocolate bar was a nice addition for the holidays, and the complimentary gifts brought joy each time they were handed to me. Would definitely stay here again:) the cost of the room and experience is worth every penny!

I have stayed in many fine hotels all across the country but this one really stands out. Every member of staff we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. I have never encountered such an amazing staff that went above and beyond. Especially Calvin and his mini me Jacob at the front and Annie our waitress in the restaurant. The courtesy chauffeur Craig(?) gave us a lovely tour of the city. There is such a coziness and warmth to the hotel because it used to be a Gilded Age home. The views are incredible and each room is so beautifully done, especially the Louis XIV room where we stayed. The restaurant food was truly amazing. The Chanler omelette is one of the best omelettes I’ve ever eaten. Their location is perfectly botched on the cliffs with easy access to the cliff walk. I cannot rec

Pricey but worth it for a truly premium experience. One of those rare hotels where they make you feel truly welcome and bend over backwards to make your visit memorable. We have stayed at many top tier hotels throughout the world and the Chanler is definitely in our top 5. We will most definitely be repeat customers.
