Very Good
The staff, the food, the bar and restaurant are stunning.
The room location. 048 felt like we were too far from reception and didn't feel like a part of the beautiful main area.

We did ask for an upscale room and it was definitely worth the upgrade . The hotel has lots of charm . All staff were very outgoing and provided exceptional service . Room was immaculate, very clean, great A/C. Nice high ceilings to give airy feeling. Close to shopping , points of interest and restaurants. Easy check in and out . Their breakfast buffet was exceptional as it offered a wide variety of choices .
There is nothing I can say that I disliked. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a more upscale establishment

The staff were helpful, and the location was not far from the town.
But the hotel is starting to show its age and we were disappointed with the number of things. Firstly the room size, secondly The view was very bad, thirdly The in-bath shower was challenging to use because of the glass door and it was hard to reach The taps, the hot water took a long time to heat up again probably because of the old plumbing in the building. Other things that we were disappointed with included, drinking water was only provided on one of the two nights that we stayed, the bathroom sink was very small and you had to be a contortionist to clean your teeth face or wash your face because you had to put your head under the glass shelf and bend yourself down very low to manage this task. The bed was bordeting on uncomfortable and the pillows were big enough for a monster human. Why are they so big? We also couldn’t get the air conditioning to work properly so we had two uncomfortable nights as a result. The creaking noises when you walk could be seen as part of the heritage nature of the building but we were rather unaccustomed to that.
Overall whilst it was fun to stay in a rather famous heritage listed hotel and be looked after so well by the enthusiastic staff at all levels, The actual room on offer was a very big disappointment particularly considering the high price that we had to pay.
The room was very dark with poor lighting and was very small with bad views, no drinking water on second day, as above for the rest

Fantastic location.
Completely overpriced for the size of the room which had a massive (and noisy) generator directly outside the window.

The property is situated in a prime location at the heart of the city. The room was clean, quiet, and spacious. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating.
The toilets were small, and there weren’t many available parking spots at the location.

Location is great in New Town away from tourists crowds. Decent lobby.
Decor is old office building boring grey. Light levels in hallways, wake up early and you are in the dark, dangerously.
Beds are not comfortable at all.
They bill themselves as a four and half star, more like a three.

Beautiful hotel, lots of quality amenities in room such as hot pot,
tea set, glass glasses and complimentary bottled water. Room was very nicely decorated, comfortable bed, and bath had high quality fixtures. Wonderful location in New Town and very close to Old Town!
