I have a long pedigree with luxury/lifestyle hotels...and The State Hotel does everything right. Perfect location. Swag with out trying to hard or being precious wonderful staff (Sierra, Noah, and GM Ann). And the cheeseburger I had in the restaurant...best ever.

"Check your bill carefully"

Reviewed January 21, 2025 NEW

The hotel room was very comfortable, and the location is great. However, you need to ask a LOT of questions. There was boxed water in my room next to the bed. There were no signs indicating prices, nor was there a list of "optional" items for purchase anywhere in the room. I assumed that the water was complimentary (much like the toiletries and the bathrobes customers can use). In fact, when I received the final bill, they charged me $10 each for the boxed water. I never would have consumed it had they made this clear during check-in or anywhere in the guest room. Be extremely careful about what you use and ask lots of questions. The fact that they would charge an outrageous amount for water and not even disclose that makes me never want to return to this place. There are MANY lovely hotels right in the same area, so you don't need to settle for one that is not transparent in their pricing.

"Intentionally deceptive to customers"

Reviewed January 16, 2025 NEW

They leave bottles of water on your night stand with a sticker on the back that says $10. The obvious goal of this is to have customers not notice the sticker and then open the water so they can squeeze you for an extra $10 per bottle. 16oz of Boxed Water. One of the slimiest tactics I've ever seen and am genuinely curious how they think this is acceptable. Feel bad for the staff who have to enforce this. Mr. Krabz from Spongebob wouldn't even sink this low.

"Beware the $10 16oz boxes of water!!"

Reviewed January 10, 2025

It seems odd that management of this hotel apparently thinks it’s ok to risk their ratings over $10 small boxes of water they leave ON YOUR NIGHTSTAND they don’t bother to tell you you’ll be charged for if you open them! You’re supposed to see the little $10 sticker on the box before you open it! Oh, ok! I’m guessing the hotel probably spends maybe 25 to 50 cents for these boxes of water. When you check out, you’ll also be charged the extra $25/day resort fee for your stay. We did know that upfront however. You’d think with that fee they might be able provide a couple of 50 cent 16 oz. water boxes. It’s a nice little hotel, great location, and a great staff. But when you feel like you’re getting gouged, it leaves a bad taste. I’ve seen other reviews regarding the $10 gouging for boxes of water. The hotel’s response: “We have drinking water available in the lobby.” Ok, fine. That does NOT address the $10 boxes of water in the rooms. It’s not the money, I can afford the water. It’s the principle. If you really want to continue your price gouging policy of charging $10 for a 16 oz box of water, and risk more irritated customers, at least make the $10 stickers on the boxes bigger and red so we might actually notice we’ll pay $10 before we open it. Bottom line: it’s underhanded. If it wasn’t, you’d tell every guest about the $10 boxes of water when they check in. And you don’t do that.
