Pros:

Loistava sijainti, hyvä tunnelma ja mukava henkilökunta. Ravintolan ja sky loungen ruoka- ja juomatarjonta olivat hintansa arvoisia. Aamupala täytti odotukset.

Cons:

Lämmintä vettä ei riittänyt 19. kerrokseen parina iltana. Siitä pieni miinus.

Pros:

La ubicación es perfecta, la habitación estuvo bien sin mas. El desayuno correcto

Cons:

En el desayuno, a partir de cierta hora si algo se agotaba no se reponía, con lo que al final no quedaba de algunas cosas. Esperaba más de un hotel de 5*, ni siquiera nos dijeron durante el check-in que había un SPA en el ultimo piso

Pros:

There are different restaurants you may choose from. one rooftop, one Italian and one local. We were to leave very early in the morning and they prepared a breakfast bag large enough for 2 days:)

Cons:

Although we requested a non-smoking room, it was obvious that people smoked in the room. There were cigarette butts in the balcony. The hotel is decorated with very nice wood works and marble. I am sure the hotel was very chic in the day but in need of a good renovation today.
