Location is OK. Central but loud. Doesn't matter which floor you are in, you will hear street noise. Same if you are in the spa room. However the inside of the hotel was overall quiet. Room was spacious and great bathroom. Overall most of the staff I encountered were pleasant. Breakfast buffet was plentiful but the quality was ok. Ask to have the food made fresh it taste better than the food in the big trays. Some staff was attentive while others weren't. No tip is required for the breakfast buffet. Room service food was overall good. The only part I think that needs improvement is the ladies bringing the food; should be a bit friendlier. Pool is very small and dirty. Also filled with kids so you won't be doing much swimming and relaxing. Gym was a good size. The spa was horrendous. I booked 3 treatments and was laughing internally most of the time because I felt like I was having a child giving me a massage. If you have done spa treatments especially in the states you will not be impressed with their spa. Also the lounge area is next to the front desk and the staff was so loud. It's not a quite relaxing spa experience. Check out process was very weird. It took more than 1 hour for them to come to pick up my luggage. Once we go outside I see three porter guys by the front door. Not sure what was the hold up, but every time I called the front desk they would just say soon. Thank God I was going early to the airport and had spare time. Also those porter guys by the door never open the door. What's the point of having so many bell hoppers (usually is 3-5 men) just hanging around. They should be opening the door for each and every single person.

This hotel surely deserves 5 stars. From arriving here to leaving, staff pampers and looks after you. Booking in was flawless and room was perfect. In-hotel dining at the Mint restaurant is fantastic. Well worth the visit. Most enjoyable and will return.

I had a great experience here. They have beautiful, spacious rooms with big bathrooms. The staff is friendly and quite helpful. I didn't get to use it but they have a heated indoor pool. The breakfast was quite delicious. Only downside is the view. But the location is perfect.

Overall the stay was very nice. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I did have a few concerns about the cleanliness of the room for a 5-star hotel. The mattress pad was urine and blood stained. I also had flies in my room upon on arrival but it was quickly resolved.

Everything was great except few things in the spa. There were no towels anywhere, jacuzzi was cold, nail polishes were thinned out and old….. these little things do matter and I hope you take steps to fix them. Other than that, everything was immaculate, the room, linen, staff and food…. The Indian restaurant there was outstanding as well as service.

A real 5 star hotel and service. I love my stay. The rooms were beautiful and well looked after. Gym was never packed. The heated indoor pool was great. 5 star experience it is. Breakfast was the best.

I was welcomed so beautifully and accommodated on a very professional friendly high level way and all the staff on each department was exceptionally friendly and helpful!

I can most definitely say, this was my best hotel experience and I will most definitely book there again!
