The last time we mentioned the Boca Raton Resort & Club in Florida, it was because Regis Philbin was annoyed that he'd tipped the bellman before he found out tips are all included. This week the New York Times checked it out, and came out with a fairly lukewarm conclusion too. Reviewer Geraldine Fabrikant writes:

The Boca is the hotel version of the everything bagel. It offers whatever you need, but it has no striking personality.

What it does have is 80 years of history, and 80 years of various renovations and rebuilds which enables it to offer different styles of accommodation depending on your vacation needs, so it's suitable for families or couples or groups all at once.

However, all this leads to staff and service being stretched just a bit too far.

Fabrikant says:

Like a woman who does her face, but neglects her neck, parts of the hotel seem to have not gotten the help they need.
