Reviews and Ratings
I checked into the wrong room initially, but once moved to my designated room, I found it clean, with great service. The rooms were extremely comfortable and had everything a business traveler needs, making my stay pleasant. However, there were some issues with service and preparation.
The hotel offers spacious rooms compared to other modern structures, although the entry from the elevator is peculiar as it requires passing through another door with a card. The staff is nice and cooperative, but there was a slight confusion about breakfast charges not included in the room rate. The location is convenient, with easy access to the city center and dining options. The dining experience was average, but hot wok dishes were good.
The hotel offers comfortable and quiet rooms, ideal for business travelers, but the service at check-in and check-out lacked warmth. The location is convenient with easy access to nearby attractions, however, the dining experience wasn't exceptional.
When I arrived, the hotel rooms were clean and spacious, but I found them to be a bit too dark. The service was a mix - helpful for check-in but disappointing in communicating open buffet availability. The location was convenient for us, although a bit slow at times. The dining experience had good selections but was inconsistent in taste. Overall, a comfortable stay with room for improvement.
When I arrived back at the hotel in the evening, the rooms hadn't been serviced until I called the reception, but once done, they were very clean, quite, and comfortable. The room I got in the old building matched the actual one surprisingly well, which was a bit misleading. The service here is excellent and the staff is so attentive to every request, making it one of the friendliest and most professional experiences. The location was good for my needs, and the 'Coffee shop' was a bit dark, but overall suitable for a business trip. The dining experience, though good, was a bit less than average, especially considering the cost. The facilities offered various services like room service, car hire, dry cleaning, housekeeping, grocery shopping, and laundry.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with better lighting than older structures, and the breakfast buffet is satisfactory. The staff is welcoming and ensures a pleasant stay. However, there are significant price discrepancies for services like car hire. The location is convenient, but the travel desk charges are excessive. The dining options are diverse but come at a higher price. Overall, a good choice with a few drawbacks.
The hotel's location is excellent, right at the heart of the city with convenient access to shopping centers. The rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable, although there were some unpleasant smells. The service, despite being mostly helpful and courteous, had one receptionist who was not up to par. The dining experience was delicious and tasty, though pricing may be on the higher side. Overall, a good value for money stay.
I thought I paid extra to get a non-smoking room, but ended up in the wrong room, which was still not prepared. The breakfast buffet was all right, but the food was tasty. The laundry service was speedy.
The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms, with some small size constraints but still spacious compared to other options. The service was exceptional with friendly and professional staff. The location was very good, although some found it hard to reach. The dining experience was average with room for improvement, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel offers clean and spacious rooms, despite a slight sewage odor, and surprisingly quiet ambiance for its central location. The service, while generally helpful, lacks the expected warmth and efficiency in certain areas like the coffee shop. The location is convenient, being close to major attractions, but falls slightly below expectations. The dining experience is consistent but needs improvement to meet previous standards. Overall, a decent stay with room for enhancement.
