I stayed in one of the refurbished rooms with a rear outlook. The room itself was beautifully appointed and very luxurious - I loved the lighting and decor. The lack of a view was compensated by the room being very quiet
However, these positives are outweighed by negatives associated with othe aspects of the hotel.
1. The bathroom is not in keeping with the quality of the bedroom - the tap was hanging off the wall and the shower head was pretty old and ineffective.
2. The food in the lobby was awful - an omlette was the worst I've ever eaten
3. Apart from the lobby - there is no bar to enjoy a relaxing drink - a personal preference but sitting in the lobby to have a drink did not appeal
4. The housekeeping in the room was pretty poor - there was little effort to tidy things up - plus no turn down service
5. Some of the staff on the ground floor were distinctly unhelpful
I know that the above may sound picky - but when paying $400+ for a room - these things should be done as a matter of course and service.
I think there are better places to stay for the money
