3. What makes Epic stand out is the friendly and accommodating service throughout the property (except the overhyped, overpriced, phony & pretentious Zuma Restaurant off the lobby, which is leased by a third party and not under Epic management's control).

4. Don't get me wrong a lot of other hotels are nice in an old money, pretentious 'allow me to change into my smoking jacket before you hand me my my brandy and pipe' sort of way but Kimptons have a different and better feel with the same level of luxury.
