Rooms were good, spacious, great bed. Breakfast was a mess, and the staff was unorganized. There were plates missing, food trays were empty, no waiter service. I understand the hotel was fully booked but a 5 star hotel needs to know how to handle this.

Staff were amazing. Opportunities for improvement: - Hire more staff during busy periods as there were lack of staff at cuisine restaurant. -Improve the breakfast selection. - Don’t overcook the Lobster and meats during New Year Eve Gala.

Outstanding service and exceptional staff Despite experiencing some inconveniences during our stay, what truly stood out was the outstanding professionalism, kindness, and commitment of the entire staff. Every issue was handled with genuine care, efficiency, and a clear willingness to help, always making us feel heard and supported. The team went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, showing a level of service that reflects true hospitality. Situations can happen anywhere, but the way the staff responds makes all the difference — and in this case, they did an excellent job. Special thanks to the management and all team members for their dedication and customer-oriented approach. This level of service makes us confident in returning and recommending the hotel without hesitation.
