So disappointing, so expensive for what was once a wonderful jewel of a hotel
Pros:

The people looking after cars, luggage and ordering taxis were very professional, prompt and friendly. The restaurant in the downstairs area was excellent - food was delicious.

Cons:

Check in staff were very unhelpful and unfriendly. For a five-star accommodation I expected much better, value for money was very poor. The room service food was cold, fries were soggy and so disappointing. I would not recommend anyone to stay at the hotel, unless they get a cheap price.

It was amazing.
Pros:

Everyone was very polite and everything was nicely designed.

Cons:

Our rooms took a while to be ready for us to check in. We had to leave our bags at the hotel at the start and go around the city in our current clothes when we were hoping to freshen up and change.

Horrible.
Pros:

Absolutely nothing. It’s not worth it.

Cons:

Everything. Room was claustrophobic. Breakfast wasn’t included. But when I checked online, it should have been. Parking isn’t included as well. This is the only place Ive gone where there’s no parking included with no cost. Bfast food isn’t special. Nothing special about this place. Bar menus weren’t clear, so if you aren’t careful, you’d be charged. Welcome gift - i had to call them 3x to get me my welcome gift lol.

I attended a conference and it was comfortable to stay in the same hotel.
Pros:

The location was great, close to the shops, train station and opera house / botanical Gardens.

Cons:

I didn't like the nightlight underneath the bedside table, it is not a subtle light.

Impersonal
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Very small rooms and bathrooms. Interactions are impersonal all round.Tildas waitress needs to hide her arrogance and intolerance better under her buttered on mask.
