out all the time

ok… so this is my first negative post. I went here recently and I was stunned by the ego of this hotel and staff. I have travelled and stayed at many international hotels, but I have never been treated so poorly as I did at this hotel bar. i decided to go for an after dinner drink on a tuesday night with three girlfriends and headed to the hotel garden bar which was empty except two tables. We asked to sit outside, to which we were then asked with a bit of an attitude if we were guests at the hotel. When we answered no, with a bit of a confused look, we were told he could seat us outside but if a hotel guest wanted our seat or it got to crowded outside to accomodate us we would have to move indoors. OK? wait a minute? In a city that does not rely on their hotels for the bar scene, like LA for instance, where do they get off? I have been to every trendy hotel bar in LA and have never been asked this question, especially in an empty bar! I found this to be the most insulting way to treat a customer. There loss because I know enough people in advertising who spend weeks on end at hotels and I now will never recommend this hotel.
