I had an experience at a boutique hotel the other day and wanted to ask what you guys thought.
Since the the person I was meeting was an out of towner agency girl, her assistant gave me the general area of the hotel. In fact, it was a three-call system rather than your typical two-call system.
The assistant tells me the hotel is in downtown, and to call when I get there. No, problem, I know most of the chain hotels there, so I got there and gave her a call. She then tells me the name of the hotel - which I've never heard before and have no idea where it is either. Besides the address, the handler had no other info as she was not local. So it was a pain finding the hotel on the fly. Finally when I get there, of course it was no parking because it is downtown, so I had to spend another 10 mins finding parking, which of course was taken out of my hour.
So after finally getting there, on my third call, I call for the room number and am told the girl will come down and get me, because the elevators are all card access. I'm starting to get a bit weary, but since I went through the whole hassle decide to stay and wait. So, I'm waiting and waiting, which itself is a bit conspicuous as its a pretty small hotel and the desk staff probably knows everyone staying there. She finally comes in from another side and gets me. Oh, I forgot to mention that the girl has done porn and been in some big name magazines as well. Not to mention she has a DDD rack. So if that didn't draw attention, I don't know what did.
Anyway, we go up to the room, and anytime there is a noise next door or something we have to be cautious about something going on, she's a bit paranoid about staying there too. And we had to have the TV on full blast during the session. She tells me during the session, she chose the hotel because it was very cheap for downtown. All this pretty much ruined the session.
Needless to say, I didn't enjoy it a bit. So I want to ask if anyone has had a similar or better experience with boutique hotels.
Ladies - do you ever actively book boutique hotels? If so why? Or do you try to avoid them?
Guys - would you ever feel comfortable seeing a provider if she stayed at a boutique hotel? I'm kinda leaning towards the not side for now.
Thanks for the help.
Cheers!

For all the reasons you just said. Sure, they're fun when you're travelling solo or with your SO, but for a rendez-vous (or two!), the bigger and more anonymous the joint, the better.
Give me a Westin or Hilton any day.
Boutique Hotels are nice, but if you chose something like the Hilton, a bit busier hotel, then you dont have the 'eyes' watching you constantly or have to give a blood test at the Front desk in order to see someone.
Every hotel is different, and I've only encountered 2, in 7 years, that I would avoid, due to possible privacy issues. Boutique hotels usually offer added ambience that you don't find in a large chain, and if the girl is tactful and knows how to handle herself, there should never be an issue with her business - key card access or not. I stay in boutique hotels all the time, and often the same ones repeatedly. Some of them require cards for access, some don't. I frequent some of these hotels so often, that the employees even know me by name. They recognize me as a pretty, young single woman who is super friendly, respectful and *tips* really well! Maybe they know what I'm doing, maybe they don't. But if they do, it certainly isn't because I enter the lobby dressed like a sexed up porn starlet! Discretion and tact is key, no matter where you stay.
Edit: I'll re-phrase the last part of my post, so as not to sound offensive. If a provider's niche is to dress extremely provocatively for her clients, then certainly she needs to take that into consideration, when choosing a hotel. I, personally, do not have to take such considerations, so a boutique hotel will usually suit my needs quite well.

In fact, I like them so much I intend to take Mrs. Luethor to all of the ones in DC. I just won't mention having been there before.
Just kidding, Mrs. L. That was the first time I'd ever been there.
but what you described seems more like a fleabag.
They are not good for any kind of high volume type situation, but for an overnight with a nice provider at a hotel with wonderful amenities, then they are wonderful.
The Penisula in NYC stands out in my mind as one such, if you can afford it these days.
So do I, like the Solamar in San Diego, my favorite downtown hotel anywhere.
That's a Kimpton. They all are among my favorites but not good for biz unless you're holed up (no pun intended) with someone special for the duration.
One of my favorites is the Morgan in Dublin. Contemporary, unpretentious and a VERY sexy hotel.

I agree with you, Anneke. I prefer the Kimptons but recognize that they're only good for an outcall to the guy's room/suite and spending some time there. For a lady who does incall in any volume, they don't work very well.
The Morgan is one of the world's finest. I love it.
Sounds like youd find more comfort in TJ. I like a good night sleep afterwords, so I usually book something not real fancy but nice like a Holiday Inn, or Hilton. So I can take off in the morning, after all the sex and booze. Heh.
Also, another way to avoid this situation is only take apartmnent/condo/house incalls.

For several reasons. The staff get to know me and have things ready just the way I like them. They are also very discreet and do not ask any questions. I really like the intimacy and flavor they add to my romantic rendezvous. Boutique hotels also have the ability to provide little things that make a big difference. For instance, my very favorite spot in Beverly Hills will, at my request, bring up candles and flowers, arrange them them all around the tub, and even run the bath so it's ready when I come back from having late drinks.
Entering a sweet smelling, candle lit room with a bubble bath waiting is a great way to get your gent out of his clothes and into the mood...
