You expect in a hotel like the Rennaisance a restaurant that would have a menu choice and food quality that does not disappoint. You can see where this is going. We had tortilla soup. It was awful. We've lived in southern Arizona for 25 years and know what tortilla soup is. This was an over seasoned peppery broth with beans that were soft and disgusting.
The menu was reduced for the week, we were told because of all the events they were having. The reduced sized menu was supposed to improve service and efficiency. It did neither. The hotel, wasn't much better.
PS. We spend 60-70 days a year in hotels around the country. The Renaissance in Glendale is off our list.
