    Every thing was perfect. The location, the design of the building, the kind and welcoming staff.
    And that breakfast was THE BEST I have ever had. If you are staying there please make sure you try it.

  • Maria from Japan (10/10)

    The room was spacious, the interior well thought out, the bathroom, shower & toilet were laid out smartly and the Diptique toiletries were a nice touch. I like how the small details like the floor mat stays in place when you open the shower door, the flush is automatic when you stand up and the amenities are sustainably crafted. The eye masks were a welcome & unexpected treat! The food in the restaurants we tried were very good and the service of the staff from the front desk to the concierge to the food outlets were exceptional. And the fitness center was just WOW!
