...My first experience of this hotel was back at the end of January 2006. We we're thinking about booking this hotel for one of our stays on our honeymoon in August. I emailed the hotel for some general infomation about the hotel itself, the location for transport from the airport and tourist infomation. As there we're numerous email addresses on the website I sent the same email to two addresses, one to the front office manager and one to the general front desk email. Later the same day because of the time differnce I recieved two email's back from the Delta Chelsea with more infomation than I'd asked for. This seemed like a very good start to us that they bothered to reply to our inquiry even though we had said that at that point we hadn't even booked anything. A few days later we booked our honeymoon and the delta chelsea was... Read review

...In April this year I made the decision that I was going to take a sentimental journey back to the US next year with my daughter. Living in Edinburgh, I wanted to try and find a relatively straightforward way of getting to the West Coast, without complicated connections in countries I had no desire to visit.
