My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable and had a TV, but lacked simple touches like a dressing gown or a toilet brush. The initial stuffy and smelly atmosphere was off-putting, although the excellent air conditioning helped. The service was absolutely fantastic, with friendly and helpful staff, particularly Eamon. The location was very convenient, connected to a shopping mall and close to all amenities. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with good food but some cold dishes and limited breakfast options. Overall, a great stay with a few drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was amazing! The rooms are spectacular, with a massive bed and a huge bathroom, making it very comfortable. However, the location at the end of the corridor was a bit of a struggle due to the limited lifts. The service was excellent, and the hotel was spotless, offering a perfect experience. The location is ideal, right in the center of town with easy access to major landmarks and a large shopping center.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic overall. The rooms were gorgeous, and we stayed in a spacious and clean standard classic room. However, I was a bit disappointed as we didn't get the full wall of windows as shown on the website, which I wish we had booked instead of our general room. The service was excellent, with the staff being wonderful ambassadors for the hotel. The location was perfect, within walking distance of major landmarks and with parking included, making it super convenient.
