    This is a nice hotel in Boca Raton. I had a nice lunch poolside while visiting relatives in town. They have a beautiful pool and pool bar and there's also the meat market restaurant inside. This hotel is close to the town center mall and many nice restaurants and things to do in the area.

    One of the best hotels we stayed in in Boca Raton. There's parking, a spacious lobby, a gym, and a large outdoor pool. The room was clean, spacious, and the shower had good water pressure.

    The location of the hotel is great! I used the mobile check in and by 12pm on the day of, my room was ready, so early check in was great. The pool was beautiful, the Cuban girl that worked the pool was also very nice and helped with all of our needs. The food at the bar was not so great because it comes to an attached restaurant so not many options, but it was pretty decent. Overall great staycation for my daughter's birthday!

    Mold in shower UGH !

    Marriott is always a go-to for us. I rarely ever choose any other brands when booking a stay. This was an impromptu staycation for our anniversary. We literally decided at the last minute to get away to another local city to just enjoy a different scenery for a few days. The online photos were not impressive nor disappointing but I didn't look through them all. In the photos though I did notice that it looked a bit dated but I thought it was intentional like it was the look they were going for...I mean it is a Renaissance so I wasn't expecting a bad experience at all. I was mainly impressed with the pool photos which looked very modern and made me feel the hotel was a modern vintage (if that makes sense). Welp! I was wrong. This hotel is just old. The decor reminds me of Golden Girls with the 1980's wicker fixtures. The rooms are absolutely in severe need of updating. The walls are dirty, the bathroom has mold, and overall, the rooms don't even look like they belong. The halls also have an older look and feel. Our bathroom door could barely open or close. It sticks badly making it a task to get in or out of there. The carpet had stains and the room has an old, kinda musty smell. Unpleasant stay for us and I wasn't happy at all but I was exhausted and dealing with a pinched nerve as well and didn't have the energy to ask for better (if that even exists here). I'm a fan of Ritz Carlton, Renaissance, JW from the Marriott brand but this one feels nowhere near as nice. Also, upon check in, I mentioned it was our anniversary. We stayed with other Marriotts on our anniversary and when we entered our room there was always some sort of sweet acknowledgment. A little note with a plate of chocolates, a small basket of fruit, a cheese plate, and even a mini bottle of Prosecco and a homemade chocolate bar at one of the hotels but this one didn't acknowledge our day at all and the young woman at the front desk even told me so. She said, "oh no...we don't do that here." I know this isn't mandatory but it is a nice touch and made us feel so special and recognized at the other locations. Upon check in at the front desk, they actually did have a Hershey bar for me with my name printed on the label which was cute for sure. The beds...my back felt like a MILLION BUCKS of chiropractic adjustments were going to be needed when I woke up. I really didn't want this review to sound harsh because it seems to be well liked. However, this was my experience and you can see by my photos that my room was not what you'd expect from a quality brand like Marriott. The location is okay. Lots of restaurants nearby, Mizner also not far and Town Center Mall was very close. But truthfully I did feel like most of the buildings in the area were in major need of renovations which I didn't expect of Boca because I used to work here years ago and it was always very nicely maintained as you drove around but it now feels run down. Even Town Center Mall exterior (especially around the parking garage area, just looked beat down. Overall I likely wouldn't stay again though unless it has a major overhaul. Definitely was not an Anniversary Worthy reservation!

    I'm not one to complain or be very picky, but when one is paying for certain services and when those services are expensive you would expect the very best, right? Well, the complete opposite happened at this hotel..., correction, a motel. I've traveled to various hotels around the globe and this is not a hotel, this is a motel. Everything is completely run down... moldy vents, moldy windows and awnings. I checked in a bit late, around 10PM and it was meek customer service. The woman was quick to get it over with and never explained rates, never verbalized that my room was attached with a package and didn't check me into the correct room. I had paid for a specific package at a room where you could look out at the pool and that was not what I received. If you can see from the picture I added below, the green on the floor is algae build up from lack of maintenance and care. Even after trying to rectify the situation at the front desk I was treated like a baby, as if what I was saying was gibberish and I didn't know what I was talking about. I felt as if I was bothering them to do the job that they're there to do and they basically told me that there was was no such thing as a package when in reality the website explicitly states there's a package to be in a room that looks into the pool and comes with all these other services. I rarely ever rate places one star... but this left me speechless in the most negative way possible. Especially as we're living in a pandemic you would expect the establishment to be extra clean, but this is not the case here. The hot tub doesn't work, the pool is full of grout, the drinks at the pool are basically full of juice and diluted and your charged $32 for absolutely nothing. There's absolutely no upkeep at all. Come at your own risk or don't come at all.

    This is supposed to be a King size room in a 4* Hotel?!?! It's an old grubby room in a Road side Motel!

    See all

It's locate in a warehouse building in a business plaze because it's just a Venues & Event Spaces and not a restaurant, so they do not serve food or drinks here. However, we had arranged caterings to bring the food in, and we brought wines and cocktails which their staff helped serving them. So basically it is what it is, a very simple empty space which you can make what you can make of it. I am not sure the management provided the backgrounds and curtains as they looked simple but nice. The IT staff brought in the screen for presentations and the loud speakers for music and announcements. As the meeting getting to the end, I felt it went smoothly and thought the staff was very friendly and helpful. The only thing I thought was parking could be a challenge. If you plan to have a large group of people attending a event here, there will not be enough parking spaces in front of the building. Your guests may have to park out in the back and walk around the building to get in.

Big bright green iguanas prancing around the property. It is a wonderful day trip, you can have lunch at the cafe on the outdoor patio and enjoy a variety of Asian dishes, boba tea, and other cold treats. There is a short movie that tells visitors about the inspiring life of George Morikami, the man who created this place and dedicated hundreds of acres back to Florida. There was an exhibition on Japanese Bridal Kimonos, Japan's efforts in American wars, and a model 16th century tea house with a very informative diagram explaining the traditions and build out.

We spent our time visiting the Japanese gardens. It was excruciatingly hot the day we visited. We were glad for the frequent benches to stop and rest. We enjoyed the beauty of the various gardens. Especially liked the bamboo grove as my husband got to explain to a few folks a bit about bamboo and the ingenuity of his grandfather using bamboo on his farm in Georgia as irrigation conduits. The sign saying don't carve the bamboo next to a carved stalk was ironic... In addition to the various plant gardens, there were the rock gardens, the waterfalls, and the pine forest. Liked seeing the koi fish and turtles. Another highlight was the bonsai exhibit. Throughout the winding path, there were stone lanterns and small wooden huts. At the entrance to the area with the original 1977 museum is a laughing Buddha statue of Hotei, the god of happiness. Smaller than expected, you might miss it the first time you pass by. As a caveat, prepare for lots of walking. Wear comfortable shoes, a hat or carry a parasol, sunglasses. They have a couple areas with steps, but there is an alternative "easier" path for strollers or handicapped. And if possible, come when it's cooler. I'm glad we walked the entire perimeter. But for someone very much out of shape, I know I'll be feeling my achy muscles. I'm glad we got this brief glimpse into the history and culture of the Japanese in South Florida. It's one of the most distinctive tourist attractions in our area.

Every question I asked about, no one working at The Boca Raton seemed to have a real answer for that solved a problem. The staff seem to make up answers on the spot. So service is 1/5. Facilities in the new renovated tower were nice but we paid upward over $2k per night that did not deliver the luxury of a $2k per night stay. I have stayed in more comfortable Hilton and Marriott's and even Airbnbs for far less. The sheets are not soft. The bed was not firm. The space was quiet though and the bathroom was nice. However toilet paper was the cheapest brand I've ever seen. So definitely far from luxury. Food 1/5. The snacks in the room and all over the resort for kids all had red dye and carcinogens. There is no care for healthy truly good quality food here. So you pay a premium for the cheapest food in America. I have seen most all businesses, even basic businesses, move away from fake junk food, dyed food and those with carcinogenic links, but not The Boca Raton. So we paid a lot for food that we never you touched. No organic options either. High pesticide load as well. I have to say overall this is an overpriced resort striving to be luxury without the ability to live up to luxury. Overcrowded. Overpriced. Pesticides and Carcinogenic. Poor quality. Poor service.
