Extremt dåligt. Jag kan inte fatta att det här priset kan vara så här dåligt. Vid incheckningen frågade jag om minibaren var gratis, och personalen visste inte. Jag köpte frukost i förväg, men personalen nämnde inte frukostens tid och plats vid incheckningen, och först efter att jag påminde dem insåg de att min beställning inkluderade frukost. Efter att ha kommit till rummet ringde jag receptionen och rumsservicen, men ingen svarade på tio minuter, och ingen ringde tillbaka. Jag frågade receptionen om en kam och fick veta att hotellet inte hade någon. Jag förstår att engångsartiklar inte finns på rummen av miljöskäl, men jag anser att hotellet borde tillhandahålla dessa grundläggande saker när gästerna behöver dem. Rummet hade många dammiga, svåråtkomliga hörn. Hotellet har inget gym, och poolen och badkaret är ungefär lika stora. Frukosten den andra dagen var otroligt dålig. Det fanns ungefär sju eller åtta bord med gäster, men bara tre servitörer. Dessa tre ansvarade för att placera gäster, duka bord, servera mat, tillaga à la carte-rätter, ta beställningar, göra kaffe, fylla på buffén, etc. Så, kaffet jag beställde när jag satte mig ner kom inte förrän efter 20 minuter. När jag frågade servitrisen verkade hon ha glömt det. Utbudet av mat var också löjligt begränsat...

Beautiful hotel in an excellent location. Close to lots of great restaurants, cafes and bars. Excellent service from the staff.

Perfect for business trip! But for those who like gym, it’s in another building. Great location though

Good location but not worth the price. Hotel design is just fine but nothing special. Room size is very small (we stayed at the studio room. There is one seating . One light seems broken so we could not completely turn off the light while sleeping. Breakfast selection is limited. I have mixed feeling about hotel staffs. Staffs during breakfast were rushing (when there were a few tables at that time). Staffs during check-out seem confused (they took a while to find our luggages and kept identifting wrong luggages to us several times). Overall, one time experience!

Firstly, l have to point out to Trip.com to be more specific in your description. I saw your posting of the Urban Luxe room with the MBS facing photo therefore l booked the room. But at the hotel, l was told that not all Urban Luxe rooms face the MBS, and l should have called the hotel to request. However, l was told that my Urban Luxe room was being upgraded to Room 606. As l thought my booking was an MBS-facing room, l asked the receptionist if 606 is facing MBS, and she told me it's not. But she kindly told me she'd look for an MBS facing room for me. After waiting for about 15 min, she came back to me and informed me that she had switched my room to 603 and assured me that it's MBS-facing. But when l went up to room 603, l found out that it's facing the main road and The Central, the side which l didn't want. So, l went down to ask her to switch back to the 606, which is actually facing the side l wanted. She told me that room 606 was given to a couple after me, and she had no other room to allocate to me. She told me that all guests for the day had already checked in. So, l had no choice but to remain in 603, paying the price of other's mistakes. I had told her that l wanted to watch the fireworks from the room, and that's why l wanted an MBS-facing room. She told me to go up to the rooftop to watch the fireworks instead. However, we later found out that the rooftop lounge was closed for a private event. Not wanting to spoil our fun, hubby and l decided to go to the riverside to watch the fireworks instead. Despite all these hiccups, the hotel room didn't disappoint us (apart from the street view). The bed was comfortable and nice to sleep in. The decorations and fixtures are cosy and relaxing. And it's clean.Good TWG teabags and Bacha coffee bags were provided. We love the breakfast as well, especially the curry chicken with prata and the pancakes. The staff at the restaurant and those we met in the lifts are friendly and cheerful. Just hope that the receptionist was better-informed of the room orientation and the events that's ongoing in the hotel.

Overall convenience and user friendly

Good design, I had a wonderful stay here!

Cute boutique hotel in a very lively area. Service is impeccable. Rooms are small.

Beautifully designed hotel, friendly service and a great breakfast (the best Greek yoghurt and honey in Asia!). The restaurant Kee's was also good for dinner, plus they make a mean cocktail at the bar. Specific mention to Glynn for her warm hospitality and taking the time to chat/ The team overall were very good. Thanks for a great stay!
