Beautiful lobby, attentive staff, excellent customer service. Room was spacious and clean. Indoor pool required all guest, female and male to wear a swim cap. Only down side was that I could smell cigarette smoke on two nights but not noticeable any other days/times. Location was not as convenient to subway, although hotel sits between to stations.

The buffet breakfast caters for western, Korean, Chinese and Japanese palates and is high quality. The high tea is a fun experience in grand English antique surrrounds. Pool looks like it could use an upgrade. Single sex hot baths an unexpected bonus. Overall a luxurious stay in a convenient location.
