Testimonials

"The evening was magical and Abby was treated like a princess! (The rest of the family felt like royalty, too.) The decor was gorgeous, the food phenomenal, the Siagel and hotel staff brought their A+ game which together made for one heck of an amazing party.

Thank you, thank you, thank you."

Testimonials

"We had an amazing time at our event...And we have received nothing but rave reviews from everyone – the couple, our family, the bride’s family, all our friends and colleagues who attended the event.

Everything was so professionally managed including the set-up and the service during and after the event. But perhaps most importantly, there is a graciousness and sense of going “above and beyond” on the part of all the staff that makes the event extra special. I was greeted by a server who had worked at my son’s Bar Mitzvah in 2003 (a testimony to how well treated your staff are, that they don’t leave!). Steve (who managed that evening) was always around and available to take care of things. On the day of the event I decided we needed to have dancing, so the DJ had to set up extra equipment, and your AV people swung into action and helped him set up...Thank you for that, and for all the big and small ways you accommodated our crazy multi-ethnic family and helped us make a happy celebration, extra-fun, loving and spectacular. I hope to have many more happy events at the Charles in the future. And in the meantime, our heartfelt thanks for all you did to make our last event so fabulous."
