While not having stayed at this opulent masterpiece of faux-everything, I have frequented its lobbies, lounges and resstaurants. If you don't have the bucks to stay here (and it does take a lot), it's worth it just to walk through the lobby and have dinner at one of this hotels excellently overpriced dining establishments. Thhe theme of the hotel is a craftsman style luxury lodge, ,complete with massive fireplace and giant faux wood beams and faux-rock embellishments. The Napa Rose is a great fine-dining room but priced a bit above that category as everything is a la carte. It's worth it just to go see.
