Never did we think to have an affordable beautiful wedding in Miami, but Adriana Rader and her assistant Ayleen proved otherwise!Adriana took her time with us to go over in detail all the specifics of having our wedding at The Doubletree. The venue speaks for itself with a ceremony terrace on the second floor and a beautifully updated ballroom adjacent.Adriana and Ayleen were always prompt with follow up and there were never any communication issues. Both of them were very patient with the multitude of questions we had. The vendors they recommended, i.e. DJ and party designers, only enhanced the overall experience.As we went through the process, I kept saying, 'this is too good to be true' and that phrase held true to the very end of our wedding event.Even in Adriana's absence, Ayleen was right there to fill in the gaps.Our guests started raving about the event, the night of our wedding and the days followed. The food and service were superb. Liz who was our wedding liasion the night of the event was calm, cool, and collected and guided us most appropriately throughout the night!We highly recommend The Doubletree Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay!

I can not recommend this venue enough! We celebrated our wedding on September 16, 2023 and it couldn't have been more perfect!! Adriana and Ayleen were always so helpful. They would answer any questions or concerns instantly. They food was great! Lis was there on the day of our event making sure we had everything we needed in regards to the reception and getting ready. After working with many vendors the staff here exceeded our expectations. During our wedding, we had our own individual waiters. As soon as we arrived at our reception they provided us with appetizers and drinks. After entering they would constantly make sure my husband and I were taken care of. They provided us with drinks and their services all night! When I was changing my shoes, even one of the girls asked if I needed assistance. For past events we have worked with different venues, and have never received the service we received at the Double Tree. They made our dreams come true and made our day extra special.

I can not begin to express how fantastic the service, space, views, and FOOD is at DoubleTree Grand for your wedding day!!!

Between my insane allergies, the Coronavirus pandemic, and all the normal changes that go along with a wedding, I couldn't have asked for a better Manager. Little things always go wrong on your wedding day, and she fixed them all in the blink of an eye. On top of all that, the Doubletree really gives you great bang for your buck. My event was elegant and beautiful, which is saying a lot on a teacher's salary. To top it all off, the view was everything we could have asked for. If I were to do it all over again, I would still pick the Doubletree. Reviewed on 09-01-2022

And the view that our guests had of the bay during the entire night was such a plus! I can’t thank Adriana Rader enough for making our wedding weekend a dream come true. She helped and guided us through the entire planning process, even with us being in another state. She answered all of our questions, listened to our concerns, and responds to emails/calls promptly.

The main contact point is Adriana, who is the sweetest and most organized person. She had sample photos of everything, and was on top of everything venue related. She also gives you a list of preferred vendors who are all also amazing, who have worked with her and the hotel for years. So everything is pretty seamless. We didn’t have any vendor issues at all. The sales team at the Hilton is also fantastic and helps you with anything hotel related (room block/reservations etc). Day of, there’s someone on site who’s basically like a day of coordinator, there to make sure everything runs smoothly. Shout out to Sebastian, our awesome day of banquet manager for coordinating everything!! We also had to reschedule due to covid. I thought venue would be the hardest but Adriana handled it all in pretty much under 15 min while at the same time being so incredibly kind to us. We had friends whose venues were not quite so understanding with date changes/deposits/price per plate etc. Even the sales team helped us move our room block to the next year. As for the space itself, it’s beautiful. You have a view of the bay at sunset. If it rains, it’s no big deal, they just put down the coverings. It can get a bit loud because it’s over the marina and next to a busy restaurant, but the music mostly covers that. Everyone had a great time! And loved staying at the hotel because of its great location (and proximity to MIA). Totally recommend!!! Reviewed on 22-11-2021

Elcka Rangel(parent)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-08-2019 It’s been just 2 days since we celebrated at the DoubleTree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay and we are trying to make an excuse to do it again! Not only that the venue location is a privilege one, with breathtaking views of beautiful Biscayne Bay and Miami Beach in the background, is also that you will count with an amazing team of experienced people with Ms Adriana Rader, Senior Event Manager at the head of it. We look at different places, some really beautiful, but you can beat all this place offers for such an amazing price. After a couple conversations I realized that letting them do their part was ok, I just needed to do mine, and it was fun! They reply almost immediately to every email and phone call, answer every question and cater to all our requests. The list of vendors they offered is on point, we use them all except the DJ (we used @soundcrashersc ) The day of the party, Michelle the event manager follow the timeline impeccably. The person in charge of the ballroom rearranged the cake table and some of the seats just minutes before the party, they set up the tables beautifully together with Beatriz from A Blooming Touch. And the food! The chef did such an amazing job our guests are still talking about it! Special mention to the bartender, pleasant and willing to custom the mixes, he actually pulled all the Mojitos from scratch even grinding the mint individually in each glass!!We were able to enjoy the party worry free and at the end we were welcome with champagne and chocolate cover strawberries in the most beautiful suite (included in the package) All in all I highly recommend this venue. And hope to celebrate again there soon! Reviewed on 22-08-2019

My wedding day started off stressful before i even got to the venue, however the minute i stepped foot in the hotel, they were extremely accommodating and made me feel at ease. The food was absolutely everything. I wish i could have taken some home. The staff, the food and the willingness to make sure our day went smoothly is something my husband and i will never forget. I honestly just want to come back so the chef can whip me up a good meal LOL. The space was very open and spacious but it also felt intimate at the same time. (Our Party was about 80-85 people).

Karelia Sleiman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-07-2019 We had an AMAZING experience making our wedding at the DoubleTree. I am very grateful to everyone on the team for giving us a wonderful time. I did not hire a wedding planner, my sister, being my maid of honor, helped me a lot. Together with my parents, we found the DoubleTree, we had our first talk to Adriana, the senior catering manager, and it just felt right, she is very organized and loves to keep on track with details, and trust me, you need someone who takes care of details because there is so much to do the day of the wedding that you get lost. She made space in her agenda to show the ballroom to my fiance, which was the last step to say yes to the venue.Adriana is very kind and would help you as long as she can. My husband to be and I decided to change the menu and added a dessert table last minute, Adriana always listened to our requests and never gave us a no as an answer, she spoke to the chef and suddenly everything was approved. Later on, we met Michelle who was going to be the catering manager on the day of the wedding, her punctuality and professionalism were incredible, she also had a smile on her face all the time, inspiring confidence, so you feel relieved of any chaos. We hired a decoration company outside their suggested vendors and Adriana and her team got along with them with no problem.Let me tell you! Everything was stunning! Once, we entered the ballroom we were surprised, the dessert table was gorgeous and the taste was amazing. The cocktail area was beautiful, nobody complained about not having the change to try the appetizers or drinks before dinner. Dinner was delicious and the different kinds of cocktails and drinks surprised our guests. The cake was made by Todo Dulces, one of their vendor, I LOVED IT. Our guests were very excited and satisfied.On the day of the wedding, we got lucky to be served by Luis Felipe, he is such a sweetheart plus he took care of us so amazing, always making sure we ate and drank water or cocktails before anyone else, our glasses were never empty. He treated us like royalty, I couldn't stop thanking him.Also, if you are having family coming out of state like us or a destination wedding, Jessica would be more than glad to help you, she even helped me to reserve the suite for the night before the wedding to get ready with my bridesmaids in the early morning, and if you don't want to book a room, don't worry! They give you a Hair & Makeup Bridal room.They also give you a suite for the night of the wedding and set champagne and strawberries with chocolate for your new hubby and you. The process was not as stressful as I thought it was going to be, the team at the DoubleTree make it pretty easy, whether you have a wedding planner or not, they would be very happy to help you. I just remember feeling glad and grateful for choosing the DoubleTree, I still feel that way. I would highly recommend them, not just for weddings but for any other events you would like to celebrate. Dear Future Brides, Give it a try! You won't pick wrong. Thank you DoubleTree for being part of our beautiful day. Reviewed on 27-07-2019

Carmen Perez(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-03-2019 Excellent service by Adriana from day 1 until 3 months post wedding! If you're not sure where to book, look no further, this is the best in Miami! Best food, best location (you can't beat that sunset over the bay), amazing service and I'm talking about above and beyond! The cake options are from Miami's very best cake makers! Adriana showed us the location as many times as we needed prior to booking till I was satisfied, went over every detail of the contract without hesitation, was responsive to answer every question any given day throughout all of our planning EVEN when she was off work. I never once felt unattended by her. She was tremendous help with layout accommodating every request. The tasting was exquisite the VERY BEST food I've tried at a wedding! We opted for the filet mignon & french chicken as the two offerings and the fondant cake from Divine Delicacies. Chivari chairs were included which were perfect and elegant, lots of fantastic linen colors to choose from. The cheese table was so delicious that it quickly disappeared bc our guests loved it so much I have no pictures to prove it existed but it was fabulous, the hors d'oeuvres were so amazing my guests can't stop speaking about it. Drinks were also FABULOUS the bars wouldn't stop flowing with alcohol! Nothing broke everything was in order beautiful and done in a timely manner, exquisite. The ballroom looked perfect and my guests had such a wonderful time that they're asking me when the next party will be. As far as us as a couple, Adriana had our fave drinks ready upon arrival and a selection of all hors d'oeuvres for us to try prior to opening the ballroom for our guests. The room included was a beautiful left corner on the 7th floor, spacious, comfortable, and a bottle of champagne and strawberries with a loving note from Adriana was left for us. We received Hilton Honors points for our event as well and for the rooms we booked for our families. All my vendors had a pleasant experience with the hotel. Any small discrepancy or question throughout the year I spent planning or day of the event was dealt with the upmost professionalism and solved in an efficient manner. I will certainly highly recommend The DoubleTree Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay and most importantly Adriana Rader as the very best location for a wedding reception in Miami. They give you the best value for your money and their customer service, quality of food, beauty of venue, quality of service by every waiter and person in this team is 100% 5 stars. I would choose them over and over again! It was a pleasure doing business here! I look forward to referring others so that they can enjoy this great venue too! Forever thankful!

Rafaella Medeiros(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-04-2018 Beautiful venue, best view of the bay in Miami. Adriana and her team were very attentive and professional throughout the process, giving tips and going beyond expectations to attend our needs. The Chef and dining menu was excellent, overall the wedding package provided is at a great value. This would have been a 5-star experience if it weren't for the terrible experience we had post-wedding party, due the hotel's overall bad management & maintenance of hotel rooms. We arrived at our room after our wedding party and we had all our things there already from their in the day. We saw that the AC was not working well and there was water leaking from the ceiling the bathroom creating flooding and unsafe environment. We grabbed all our luggages, I was still in my wedding dress and the only room available was in the Condo section. After we settled down in this new room in the Condo, we found the carpet to be very old and my now husband had really bad allergies to it and nose clogged up- we couldn't stay in that room.Then, we had to go downstairs AGAIN and switch rooms for a third time. This one was not a suite, much smaller standard Queen bedroom for our Wedding night.To top it off we ordered breakfast the next morning at 9am and called several times to complain until it finally arrived almost at noon. There were misunderstandings due to us moving in the middle of the night and had several people knock on our door asking us to check out since room appeared vacant in the system. It is definitely was not the way we planned to end our wedding night and we were looking forward to spending it in the Corner suite - which we finally got as our 4th room on the following day. As you can imagine, moving four times in between two days was a big headache especially with the amount of luggage and things we had from the wedding. We also experienced a lot of delay in ordering room service during getting ready at the Key Largo room and had to complain several times for the breakfast and lunch to arrive as we were on a schedule- both took almost 2 hours to arrive. It is a shame that the Wedding Planning team & service is 5 stars, but overall hotel Service/Accommodations is 1 star!Hence, my overall review for this venue for a Wedding is 3, due to all the trouble we had with the rooms and food service.

Nicole Soto(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-11-2017 This was the first venue we visited when we went searching for our wedding venue. Every venue after that we continuously kept comparing to this location and none seemed to match up in comparison. First off we were dead set on having a view and being able to have some outside aspects to our wedding the DT offers exactly that thanks to their ocean view terrace which the view is breathtaking. We also opted out of having our ceremony at a church and had our ceremony on the outside terrace. BEST IDEA EVER! We did very little decorating (chairs, runner, 2 column with a floral arrangement on each, and a simple alter with 2 floral arrangements at the corners) and it looked amazing thanks to the backdrop. Adriana the catering manager is AMAZING!!! and soooooo patient! I know I continuously emailed back and forth with her for the year and a half and she answered all my questions and was so easy to work with. That is the exact person you need when planning something so hectic she is amazing at what she does! The food is unbelievable!!!! All my guests have not stopped raving about the food (filet mignon and salmon were our meal choices). I am not a meat eater and I have never loved a dish more than I did there. The chef is on another level the food was at the perfect temperature when it got to the table, the presentation was perfect and of course the taste was perfect. We also upgraded to have caprese salads. My husband who does not like tomatoes loved the salad! We also added late night bites (angus burgers, milk and cookies, and mini cuban sandwiches) they literally went flying our guests loved them all. The milk and cookies was by far the favorite since the DT is known for their amazing cookies (try them and you won't regret it - they are delicious we had guests taking 4-5). The open bar was amazing I did not get one single complaint about the drinks being too strong too weak or tasting bad. We made signature drinks and they were delicious, shots were also a part of the open bar which our guests really enjoyed. Another amazing thing was the service at the DT. We are speechless everyone we encountered was so pleasant and strived to please us as much as possible. One big plus is that right after the ceremony they make sure to have a waiter or waitress with a platter of appetizers waiting for you once you are done with the ceremony and while you take pictures. One waiter named Luis who I am guessing is the head waiter (and if he is not he should be) was amazing!!! He was so sweet and took the time to get to know us. We met him at our food tasting and we loved him we were so excited to see that Luis would be a part of our wedding to serve not only us but out guests! Once again, another member of the DT was great! The only negative to mention was the valet, if you are not aware the valet service is not part of the hotel but a third party so it is not the DT's fault but I think they should DEFINITELY consider a new company. Their current company is pretty bad. They gave me a hard time when it came to validating parking and for the free parking for the BRIDE AND GROOM for the rehearsal (seriously?!?!?!). They were rude, dismissive, argumentative, its their way or no way. I argued with them on the night of the rehearsal and the day after the wedding. I had to go back to the lobby to get the hotel to deal with them. Luckily, my guests didn't tell me they had issues. Reviewed on 27-11-2017

The location is beautiful, right on the water overlooking Biscayne Bay. The ballroom is on the second floor, with great views of Miami, from Downtown to Miami Beach. First off, Adriana Rader, the Banquet Manager was super attentive, accommodating, professional, and prompt with her responses, and made sure that everything leading up to our night would be perfect, and let me tell you it was. We also did the rehearsal dinner there and the food and service was amazing! The night of our wedding, everyone was giving awesome feedback on the great food, the premium open bar, and how breathtaking the room looked. When I tell you I reviewed and compared almost every venue in the Miami area, The DoubleTree Grand Biscayne Bay came out on top, not only for location, amenities, but overall exceptional value. With the 126 guests we had total, it was well worth, and a lot less than other similar hotels and venues in the area. We did the ceremony on the patio and it was spectacular, they even had a back up plan in case of non-ideal weather (this is Miami afterall), but luckily the weather was perfect and the ceremony came out beautifully and accommodated all of our guests. For the reception itself the room looked beautiful and even with 14 tables, never felt cramped. We also booked room blocks with the rooms manager, Jessica Rosario, and she made it easy to ensure our out of town guests got accommodations at a reasonable price. We highly recommend Adriana and her staff at the DoubleTree, from the complimentary room stay for the wedding night, to the complimentary bridal suite that the bride and the bridesmaids got ready in, everything was perfect and I couldn't have asked for a better night!!

The food was delicious! And the entire banquet team was nice, with good manners and excelent customer service. I have no words to express my gratitud to Adriana, Freddy and their entire Team. They truly exceeded our expectations! Reviewed on 08-07-2017
S Monestime(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-04-2017 Pros:Prices:Great price in our book and it allowed us to reduce the amount of vendors we worked with because of everything the package included. Event coordinating:Adriana is so professional and organized. Every time we met, she took notes, asked the right questions, and followed up with any action items. You truly feel like you are the only bride she is working with. Food:We were so worried about how the food would taste, because we did not enjoy the food that we selected for our guest during the food tasting. We told the chef to make the chicken tender, change the sides, and the sauce we wanted for our salad. The day of our wedding, our food was delicious. We received many compliments from our guest. THANK YOU!!!!! Cons:Day of wedding communication: I paid for an extra night to stay in the hotel the night before. Imagine a bride waking up, and not being able to find your coordinator (Adriana) to address the concerns of your vendors. The secretary told us she will not be in until later, so my party and I had to improvise until Adriana arrived at 1 pm. Once she arrived, she solved our problems. Parking: THE ABSOLUTE WORST. Adriana was nowhere to be found to provide the discounted parking vouchers for my vendors who left before 1pm (So we had to paid $30 for the vendors instead of $10). When Adriana arrived, she stated they needed a blue ticket for discounted parking. This was not communicated to us prior to our wedding, and the tickets were not visible for any of our vendors. I thought this issue was fixed, but my other vendor faced the same issue when leaving the venue. Tip: Make an announcement during the reception for the guest to get a discounted ticket for parking and get discounted tickets for your vendors the night before.Directions for our guest: Limited directions and signs were provided to my guest to find our wedding in the hotel. Adriana explained that there was a sign on the reception desk, however, the reception desk is not the first desk you see upon arrival. This hotel really needs to improve on internal communication with other employees. Location for pictures: After the ceremony, they aren’t really nice places to take pictures except for the docking area with all of the boats (crowded with people). Aesthetics of venue: When we saw it in person, we knew we could have done better, but honestly, it is worth the price. It truly depends on your taste. The aesthetics were not on the top of our list.Over priced rooms: Most of our guest stayed here spending 200 a night, but you could definitely find places or venues where you could get a package deal for guest. The room block was 10 dollars off the room and if your guest did not book, you are responsible for paying for their room. Ceremony: We loved our ceremony at this venue because it was on a terrace overseeing the water. However, it is really narrow, and we had a large bridal party, so we were tightly compressed. If you have a large bridal party, it may be best to have them to sit.Rehearsal and food tasting schedule: Wedding rehearsal and food tasting can only be done on Thursdays. However, if no one books the venue on the Friday before your wedding, then Adriana will notify you a week before your wedding. Tip: consider out of town guestOverall, our wedding was the best night of our lives, and would book this venue again if we knew what we knew now. Reviewed on 20-05-2017
Nicole McGrath(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-01-2017 The Doubletree Biscayne Bay is the ultimate wedding venue in Miami! We had our reception here in January (the ceremony was next door at the Trinity Cathedral) and I'm so happy we choose them! Adriana and her assistant Zaita (and the other gentleman whose name I forgot, so sorry!) all went above and beyond to make sure we had a great event. You can tell they've done so many events because they are consummate professionals. From the very beginning, Adriana and her team were responsive, kind, and helpful. Adriana or Zaita would respond to e-mails within 24 hours (usually sooner) and were always available to meet in person. Adriana, her team, and the head chef were also very accommodating with our requests, including customizing an excellent vegetarian entree (more than just the boring pasta primavera) and including a special order beer in the beverage order. They also provided a secondary conference room to stage items and get ready the day-of and they kept our centerpieces locked in their offices to make sure they would be safe until the event. The night of the event they entire staff was kind, polite, and super prompt. They even ensured that the bride and groom had our own server and plates of hor d'oeuvres available during the cocktail hour. And whoever decorated the tables made them look so beautiful! Just having the linens and table settings alone would be enough. My one complaint (which isn't even a complaint) was that they were a bit too quick to clean up drinks from the table. The food was DELICIOUS (seriously, people were impressed) and there was just so darn much of it! No one went hungry that night. My one true complaint is about the woman who handles block rooms in the hotel. She is very unaccommodating and honestly, the rooms are not worth the contract and price. Many of the condos are available on Airbnb MUCH cheaper so I would definitely look into that for your out of town guests. Also, keep in mind that the Food and Beverage minimum that you must guarantee DOES NOT include tax and service charges so you may get a bit of sticker shock when you sign the final papers 3 days before the wedding. Overall, you cannot beat the view, the location, the food, and the service of the Doubletree Biscayne Bay. Adriana runs a tight ship and you won't find any Miami venue as beautiful as the Doubletree for the same price. Reviewed on 04-04-2017

Arianna Ventura(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-03-2017 From the moment that we got engaged, we were determined to have a fun and vibrant celebration for our families to gather and enjoy. Picking the DoubleTree was the absolute best decision. Not only were we put into contact with the most incredible party planner and decorator, every detail far exceeded even our most unrealistic expectations! We had the most incredible experience working with Adriana Rader, the catering manager. Every step of the way, she was patient and accommodating. We were not always the easiest bunch, but Adriana was graceful and kind, making everything extra special and trying to meet our needs, wherever possible. My new husband and I are immensely grateful to Adriana, and everyone at the DoubleTree for making our wildest fantasy a reality. Our special day was perfect thanks to them!!! Reviewed on 08-03-2017

Michelle Brady(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-06-2016 My husband and I could not have imagined a better backdrop for our special day. The food, the ballroom, the scenery, and the staff – everything was perfect! Six months later and our friends and family are still raving about how much fun they had at our wedding – and that is EXACTLY what we were hoping to achieve! Adriana Radar and her staff truly give their clients the VIP treatment from the moment you call to schedule your first visit. Also have to give a huge shout out to Freddy and the catering staff. The food and drinks were absolutely AMAZING! Could not have asked for a better selection of hor d'oeuvres and dinner options. We absolutely loved the outdoor terrace overlooking the bay- not only did it host the cocktail hour, but guests had the opportunity to enjoy the South Beach skyline views and fresh air. The clear retractable roof came in handy when we had a 10-minute thunderstorm (very typical to Miami summers). Overall, we could not have been more thrilled to have our wedding at the Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel in Biscayne Bay! Thank you for the incredible experience! Reviewed on 08-01-2017
Sandy Hernandez(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-12-2017 I want to thank Adriana Rader and all her team at the Doubletree for the amazing customer service and guidance they gave me while planning my daughter's 15th birthday party. From the beginning that I stepped into the ballroom I knew this was the perfect place for my daughter's special day. The beautiful terrace that overlooks the water and beautiful Miami iconic bridges. The flexibility that even if it rained, the terrace doesn't get wet and you still enjoy the beautiful views is a huge plus. Once you enter the ballroom, I envisioned that perfect day with our family and friends and that is exactly what took place. From the vendors that are preferred on their list and now I know why. The decorations from International Party Designers were top of the line. Our theme was Moroccan and everything from the gorgeous drapery to the lanterns on my daughter's main table, the tablecloths, candles; everything was purely perfect. Another extremely important item is the food. We chose a buffet for the kids and a sit down dinner for the adults. Both, top of the line, truly delicious and everyone was satisfied and impressed with the taste and presentation. Anyone that has ever planned a party of this magnitude knows that when you have people to work with that you trust, support and guide you is the utmost experience while you are in nerves. I truly found that in Adriana Rader, her team of professionals and I will be truly grateful for the experience and amazing memories that will last a lifetime.Sincerely,Sandy Hernandez, Miami, FL Reviewed on 11-10-2016

Katherine Gonzalez(groom)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-08-2016 I will first review the banquet hall, below that is the more important hotel review.Adriana, the banquet hall manager was a pleasure to work with. She explained everything well, was very friendly, and was accommodating to our requests. The staff during the event I was told by the guest were extremely nice, and the food was served promptly, and the lines at the bar were short. The only negative about the banquet hall is a large column that is in the middle that doesn't allow certain tables a good view, but otherwise the balcony with the bay view is nice. That is why it gets a 4 instead of a 5 for me, as well as the hotel experience which I will review below.To begin with the blocking of rooms was annoying, because I had to continuously tell them how many more rooms after the initial 10 rooms I agreed upon my guest need, this made me literally the travel agent. Secondly the double charged my credit card for the valet. The people in the front desk need to be retrained, the service the front desk provided was not even close to the doubletree/hilton quality. They were actively painting and fixing the 8th floor, and they still placed guest in the floor that wrecked of paint. The hallways, multiple times had marijuana throughout, and one of the guest rooms wrecked of marijuana as well. The AC to on the guest room did not work, and it wasn't until the next day they were able to change the room. Then there is the extremely rude and not helpful valet people, that don't allow you to park your car 5 minutes to allow the bell boy to bring down a van full of stuff, without yelling at you.My suggestions: Book the banquet hall at the double tree, it is cheaper and has a nicer view and Adriana is very helpful, but book your rooms next door at the Marriott, they actually know how to run a hotel.

I must say that it was probably the best wedding I have ever been to. The service that we received was second to none.
