The Empress is now owned by the Sahara Hotel. Sold 2 years ago.
I have been staying at the Empress since the 1970s. Check in was the worst part, you have to go back to the Sahara to check in then back The Empress for your room. There is absoutly no organization to the check in process, and worse if you check in early.
SAHARA you have a lot of changes that need adressed with your new addition of The Empress.
I am sorry to say this is not the orderly and clean respectable hotel it was when the sisters owned her.
The only good thing about the Empress now is the location only.
Sorry but I will not be back to the Empress after 50 years of great service by the last owners.

This was the worst decision I've ever made, staying at a place with such disgraceful cleaning. I hope the manager knows that the people cleaning and organizing everything are doing an awful job. There was a yellow snot on the shower curtain, a cigarette burn and stain on the bed. Do not go to this hotel.
