Everyone is so friendly and courteous here at the hotel. Dining experience in the hotel is excellent. Food is top notch. Security is good. The only issue is the glass doors for the room toilets. Feels weird/awkward. Even though it's obscure glass, it still feels weird - unless your staying by yourself.

If I could give 6 stars I would. This hotel is an absolute marvel. The staff here are wonderful, so friendly and helpful. The rooms are delightful. My bed was comfy and the room spacious and well laid out. The decor throughout is fantastic. Small note is that as an older building you may hear some noise from guests in other rooms but I was not at all disturbed in my stay. The food is excellent, there is a lovely breakfast included. there is a great onsite restaurant with a rooftop terrace. I was unfortunately taken sick with a chest infection I picked up on the plane, and the hotel were really very accomodating for me during this difficult time. Nothing was too much trouble for anyone. Really this place is a template for what a good hotel should be.
