This hotel is very close to being perfect and I would certainly stay again. I tried to communicate prior to my stay via the email address listed on the website but unfortunately they went ignored. On arrival it was busy but the staff were welcoming, and they worked hard to prepare a room as soon as possible for my early arrival. The lobby is beautiful with some decent seating and plenty of reading material to help pass time if you need. The hotel is as beautiful from the outside and in a brilliant location - a short walk to all the key sights and surrounded by great restaurants. ||My room was on the first floor, reached by two of the slowest elevators ever, but it was seriously impressive. Large and modern, with four poster bed, living area and all the amenities and facilities you could want. Electric sockets were at both sides of the bed along with control for the decent lighting, air-conditioning was effective without being noisy and the drink facilities were of a good quality. The only issue with the room I could mentioned is the mini bar could perhaps have been stocked better with drinks.||The bathroom was equally as impressive - dual sinks, toilet and bidet, nice toiletries and spacious pleasant shower. Everywhere was spotlessly clean, robe and slippers were provided and there were plenty of towels too.||One highlight of the room was the small balcony overlooking the street outside. It wasn’t large enough to sit out on, but stood watching the world pass by was delightful and also a great way to get some warm fresh air into the room!||The rooftop pool is a great space with wonderful views across the city. There’s loungers, towels are provided and there’s a good number of general tables too. It’s a shame that there’s no bar service present but there are showers and toilet facilities. There’s a couple of restaurants on the ground floor which I didn’t sample for food, but despite being quiet late one evening it was a shame they didn’t allow a drink-only order, instead pointing me to the ‘cafe’ which wasn’t as relaxing as I was hoping.||Overall it was a very comfortable hotel in the perfect location, and I’d certainly stay again. With a few improvements to the softer service it’d be perfect but I’d still highly recommend.
