Decepcionado. Sou cliente da rede riu a muito tempo. Confesso que não esperava encontrar ar condicionado desligado. O pareamento estava quente e tivemos que dormir infelizmente 4 noites com janela aberta, barulho a noite toda e claridade. Comprei e paguei por um serviço que incluía ar condicionado. Não recebi. O máximo que consegui foi uma informação do funcionário que era assim e e não teria o que fazer. Secador de cabelos uma lástima.

All was great except the checkin process. We reserved through Expedia for a better room rate and that delayed our checkin time.

Staff were excellent, breakfast great however very busy as such a large hotel. Dining options a little disappointing. Roof Top Bar so busy with queues of, mainly locals, staff do give hotel guests priority however the area is packed - I imagine summer will be unbearable. I don’t feel it was worth the price unfortunately

Riu muito bom

A estadia foi ótima, os funcionários sempre muito gentis e educados e dispostos a ajudar. O único incoveniente é que achei que a cama de solteiro para o meu filho no quarto poderia ser melhor. Outro ponto também é que o cofre do quarto não estava funcionando.

Great central location

We loved our stay. This is a busy hotel with lots of floors in a tower and hundreds of rooms. The photos of the rooftop restaurant (VERY popular) me to believe it was a little more of a boutique property, as the rooms were super basic, but it was comfortable all the same and I slept great.
