Guest Score 2 out of 10
Poor
Unfortunately, the stay was disappointing overall.
* The extra bed was in very poor condition.
* The bathroom shower door would not close properly.
* The in-room Nespresso capsules were non-original, low-quality alternatives, which was disappointing.
* The sauna is far too small, accommodating only two people — inadequate for a hotel of this size.
* Breakfast was extremely crowded and noisy, making for an unpleasant experience.
Overall, the hotel did not meet our expectations, particularly given its positioning and reputation.

Wasnt impressed overall for the cost wish id stayed somewhere else, wouldn't return
Had booked a room with a view of the castle which on photos had a double window with two seats to sit and look out at , our room had one small window you had to stand up to look out of to see the castle when I questioned reception about this she said that was the nature of the building pity it didn't reflect the nature of my bill, thought this was a false representation of what I was getting and not happy with excuse or price I had paid,there was also a droning thumbing noise that happened on and off from somewhere in the building at all hours when I asked about this she looked at me as if I was mad even though my husband said it was definitely real

Very disappointing experience. The windows did not close properly, allowing strong winds and cold air into the room, making it extremely cold. Street noise was so loud it felt as though everything was happening inside the room. When I requested a room change, the staff justified these issues by saying the hotel is 120 years old. This is unacceptable for a luxury hotel, especially since none of these conditions were disclosed when booking. When I decided to check out after 2 hours because they didn’t solve the problem and without any refund , the staff refused to take my luggage to the car and told me to take the 6 luggages myself .

Excellent location, staff were very kind and and helpful.
Our bathroom door handle was broken and the toilet paper holder was also broken. For this high quality of a hotel, very disappointed in that.

Central location. Staff were super friendly. Breakfast was amazing.
Staff took a while to take our orders and forgot about our drinks twice. We did eventually speak to them and they got them sorted ASAP and were super friendly and apologetic so I think it was just due to the busyness.

I have been here before when it was the Waldorf Astoria, and it was absolutely stunning, with perfect service and exceptional rooms. and amenity. This time, I was pretty shocked at how rundown my room was. There was no option for me to move rooms, so I was stuck in a room with a broken window, a duvet that had very little warmth in it, and a terrible pillows, and a very worn out chair. The bathroom was very good except for the fact that there was no shower cap or toiletries of any kind.
What made my state exceptional was not the hotel or the perfect location, but the staff. It started with being welcomed by George, who is just a wonderful guy, Emma and Naomi, who were amazing and so helpful, and Katherine, the night manager who went above the call of duty to help make sure that she could do whatever was possible to make my room a little bit better than it was. The staff in the beautiful tea room was fantastic as well. As a Hilton honor member, I think it would be really smart to offer free breakfast. It doesn’t take a lot, but it would sure make people like me feel a little bit more special rather than just a number.
The location is spectacular, and the hotel is very safe. What makes this hotel stand out from all the hotels I’ve been at around the world in my 68 years, is the staff. The people who were there when I was there three years were so empathetic and helpful that they made the discovery of the terrible little room acceptable to me
My room, 528, had terrible pillows, a duvet that had no feathers left in it, a terrible mattress, and a broken window. The little chair in the corner was worn out and in pretty bad shape. I was surprised that the bathroom was clean and very nice though, and I was happy about that.
