Expensive breakfast with plenty of choices didn't bother to go again It's a little bit out the way from the city and if you wanted to do stuff in mind don't get a hotel closer

It's not good staff and service.
Yu, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is amazing, and for the most part the staff were great. We stayed with a baby and requested a crib, but they said all they had was bed railings. But then on our last night we did get a crib so I guess they just didn’t have one available? Also they don’t allow any inflatables for babies in the pools. Food was great, the groceria was affordable and delicious. Buffet was very pricey which was a little surprising but the quality is there. Obviously the chefs table and Michelin star Chinese restaurant were the pricing you would expect. Overall we loved the hotel, and the view from the rooms was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Very nice all round

I don't stay in many hotels but this is the nicest I've stayed in! The view from the room was amazing, food was very nice, the bed was very comfortable, and it had a very modern feel to it which I liked. The service was great too.

6/10 Good

Room comfort was good. Throughout my stay housekeeping replenishment was poor. had to ask almost daily for towels, coffee capsules etc. no more umbrellas to hand out on rainy day. I asked about VIP benefits on check in but was told they were NOT an Expedia VIP hotel.
Tze-Ming Kelvin, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hotel. Breakfast delicious. Kind of weird that any normal changes to the room is only done through a third party booking system. Which they never returned my 3 phone calls while there. Lunch buffet I did not do because I was stopped at the door and told ahead of time is was $80.
Jeffrey C, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

Everything was great except the noise from hotel's renovation. Hotel did notify but it bothered me for all 4 days of our stay.
Sung Hee, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice place

The location was ok, not very far from the metro station but the airport busses don't go directly to this hotel, like it is the case with other 5* hotels in town. The rooms were clean and well equipped, the hotel felt very well maintained and cozy. Breakfast was really great, the only thing that my daughter was missing was toast bread as there was a toaster so people were just toasting baguettes, which became too hard. There were a few minor weaknesses, like having to ask for an iron twice but these things happen in every hotel and they were so small that they didn't ruin the whole experience. What I would change though is the additional charge for using the outside pool - this hotel is expensive enough so that both pools should simply be included for the guests. It's not about the money, it's about the feeling of exclusivity and of a 5* place, comparing with a cheap stay, where every service costs extra.

Wince, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice hotel however, my only complaint would be the poor explanation during check in that the outdoor pool usage was an extra charge. We weren’t made aware of that until we went to use the pool and were told it was reserved for certain guests. The next day when I went to the front desk to inquire I was told my room didn’t include the pool, didn’t even know that was an additional fee when booking.
Sherman, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotelli oli jo hieman kulunut. Maksullinen ulkouima-allas oli suuri pettymys ja törkeän kallis. Lapsen lisävuode tehtiin sohvalle, kun dänkyä ei järjestynyt.

10/10 Exceptional

Good to stay

위치도 훌륭하고 워낙 편안하고 좋은 호텔로 알려져 있어서 부담없이 고를 수 있었던 곳이었다. 침대도 편안했고 방과 욕실도 훌륭해서 묵기 좋았다. 특히 남산뷰를 바라볼 수 있는 곳이었고, 방에 정수기가 있어, 편안하게 보낼 수 있었던 것 같다. 조식의 경우에는 가짓수가 많지는 않아, 개인적으로는 디너를 즐기는 것을 더 추천한다.
