Fantastic hotel location and great breakfasts. Could get an early check-in. I wish the beds were more firm. Staff worked hard at 3AM to arrange a taxi to the airport when the booked taxi did not show up due to the Wold Cup game the earlier night.

Very convenient location and helpful staff, and great restaurant and bar. However, we were there during a few very hot days and the air-conditioning in the room was not able to keep us cool so we had to sleep with the windows open at night.

The hotel was grand but also quite dated. The floor numbering was confusing, with several half floors, making it difficult to navigate. We had requested adjoining rooms, or at least two rooms on the same floor, but our rooms ended up being quite far apart. That said, the location was excellent, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.
