I think EVERYONE should splurge...

Liked: You can take the long island railroad with luggage and walk to the hotel it is that close and it's a lovely walk across the street. They have absolutely everything you could want or need at the hotel and it is absolutely gorgeous. Definitely book your spa appointments ahead of time that is no pop in service :-). Anthony, Luis, Jillian, Connie SO SO good at what they do, thank you! There are so many little outdoor spaces, the patio bar is a little garden bar with live music & cocktails, there are Adirondack chairs and picnic tables in the grass all by themselves. Dinner at the King Bar was sublime and I didn't get to experience the Speakeasy Whiskey Bar but if you go in the winter I would say go, it sounds like so much fun!
Disliked: This is such a minor odd thing but the shower is narrow, I'm not huge and I bumped my elbow on the shampoo bottles, my butt or hip on the soap dish/ grab rail and the shower curtain won't stay open, it keeps sliding to the center of the rail. There is zero sound proofing on the door leading to the hallway so if you have a noisy neighbor and you are a light sleeper you will hear it!

Superb

Liked: It was clean, well kept, staff is attentive, and it’s very close to the Long Island RR train station for a trip to New York City.
Disliked: We had booked with them two months in advance. At the time of booking, the policy did say it was nonrefundable. Despite my asking several different times for consideration of our extenuating circumstances, they did not change their mind. Be aware that you probably won’t be able to either if the same situation arises.

Ok but service offerings could...

Liked: Great stay overall. Facilities were good, the restaurant food was good and spa was lovely.
Disliked: I did not like the fact that when I arrived (which was almost midnight), my taxi dropped me off right in front of the door and the driver helped me with my very heavy suitcase out of the car, however there were 3 hotel staff waiting by the door and not one of them offered to help me with my suitcase! I had to drag it by myself all the way to reception. I just felt it was a bit strange because hotel staff usually help with luggage, even the taxi driver said they would help me, but they didn't. Breakfast is not included in your booking and they don't offer room service during breakfast time, so it's almost like you are forced to pay extra just to have breakfast. They have a snack shop which sells a few bits including coffee so I always ended up going there to grab a coffee. There is a coffee machine in the room but no kettle should you want to make a cup of tea!

A beautiful treat in Long...
