The hotel is ideally located in a local area near District 1, offering a 5-star experience without the touristy hustle and bustle. The staff were friendly and attentive, but communication barriers were noted. The rooftop swimming pool and 25th-floor seafood buffet were highlights, although maintenance issues were reported in some rooms.

The hotel rooms were nice and comfortable, but communication was challenging with my meeting. Overall, they were dirty and had a stuffy smell. The hotel staff were unhelpful and not attentive to requests, making the experience unpleasant. However, the location was great for exploring the city and had a beautiful rooftop swimming pool view.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, though modern, had a damp smell, possibly from the bathroom curtain. The touch-capacitive controls were a sleek touch, but the lack of lighting at night was inconvenient. The service was a bit of a mixed bag with slow elevator complaints but excellent help from the staff. The location was convenient for the city center but felt a bit unsafe after dark. The dining experience left much to be desired with limited options and early closing times. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel offered good value for money.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, though comfortable and clean with a double bed, unfortunately, weren't cleaned properly before my check-in, and I found some dirty earbuds by the bed. The service was a mixed bag as the staff did a brilliant job of getting us taxis when needed, were attentive and friendly, but fell short compared to other places I've stayed at. The location, while a little out from the city center, offered a beautiful rooftop swimming pool view and a great seafood buffet on the 25th floor, although noise from neighboring guests was a disturbance. The dining experience was good overall but had early closing times, and the facilities were decent, though one lift out of order caused inconvenience during peak times.

The hotel is in a convenient location near the local area but close to the tourist attractions without the hustle, providing a top-notch 5-star experience. However, traffic can be a concern. The rooms are spacious, accommodating, and well-equipped, with a minor power point issue promptly resolved. The service is exceptional, with a personal touch like celebrating special occasions and prompt assistance. The dining offers a variety of choices but may not fully satisfy Western tastes. The facilities are well-maintained and offer great value for money.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very clean, but there was a concern about a leaking ceiling initially. However, they accommodated us in a smaller suite to address the issue. The elevators were tight, especially when sharing with others. The service, while somewhat lacking English proficiency initially, turned out to be quite good. The location was great for day tours, offering a local experience while still being close to the city center. The dining experience had its drawbacks with noise and limited options, but the hotel facilities were satisfactory.
