I’m truly sorry to rate this hotel only three stars, but I cannot give a higher score after staying three days and having to sleep with a fan in my room because the AC was not working properly. I reported the issue to the front desk three times, yet nothing was done. It was clear they were aware of the problem, as a cheap fan was already in the room upon my arrival, which did not match the comfort level of the rest of the accommodations. Aside from that, the hotel itself is gorgeous, and the location is perfect. The room appeared to have been recently renovated—spacious, with an excellent view, beautiful décor, modern style, high-quality linens, excellent toiletries, and top-notch amenities. It was fantastic. Improving the minibar temperature would be a welcome upgrade. The service was also first-class—everything you would expect from a five-star hotel. Unfortunately, the failure to resolve a guest’s issue prevents me from giving the rating this property could have easily earned.

The hotel itself is great. Room configuration, size and amenities were amazing. However, the room was extremely dirty, housekeeping was poor. Concierge services could not be reached, housekeeping didn’t bother to check that the body wash was running put, floor was filthy, could have been at least vacuumed and cleaned. Overall, the issue with the hotel is the poor management / if there was good management and sufficient supervision, this would be a great place to stay, considering the luxury level and the top location. Unbelievable also that in the morning during checkout there was nobody to help with my luggage, as the shifts were changing so the girl behind the counter just nodded. At the price point I pay, this means that usually the customer is wealthy and knows what he wants, so the management and guest services offered was not acceptable. I don’t think I will ever stay again there; which is pity due to the location and history of the place. Next time it will be either Radisson or Intercontinental. I recommend to look elsewhere if you Re considering to book this hotel

The room was not clean. In fact someone had drawn a smiley face in the dust above the tv. It also seemed that the sheets had not been changed as there was fit and debris under the made comforter.

Taxi drop off was a long walk on uneven surfaces. Lobby was very nice. Help at restaurant was bad. Server was very rude. Made us feel like we were bothering him by entering to have lunch. Wine bottle that we ordered had turned sour. Probibsky due to poor storage. Hotel room was akward with different level and hard to understand lighting. No fan in bathroom. Fitness was mediocre.
