Nice stay however hotel too big for my taste
Pros:

Very close to airport and on the edge of district 3. Pool was incredible and rooms comfy

Cons:

Didn’t realise the size to the hotel when booking, very big with 25 floors, a casino and cinema. Not my vibe a hotel but still very comfy and clean.

Pros:

Beautiful big hotel, all staff were polite and smiling, always happy to help

Cons:

Seemed a little out dated.
Decking at pool was being repaired in parts, bar area up there was small and hot. Chairs stacked up, like they didn't want anyone there.
Prices in restaurants and bars were the highest we had seen at any hotel in our travels.
Curtains were no black out.
Trouble with key in elevators, we weren't the only ones.

Très bel hôtel
Pros:

La suite était très belle, la vue également.
La chambre était très propre, le personnel très agréable. La piscine incroyable et la vue est dingue !
Buffet petit déjeuner immense, qualitatif.

Cons:

L’isolation n’est pas super, on entendait ce qu’il se passait dans les couloirs mais également le bruit des Klaxons incessants alors que nous étions au 20e
Absence de savon près de la baignoire (uniquement dans la douche) et au niveau du lavabo.

Un très bel hôtel et un séjour très agréable
Pros:

l'emplacement proche centre et lieux de visites, la piscine en rooftop avec le bar et restaurant. Beaucoup de restaurants à proximité. Un bon buffet petit déjeuner avec énormément de choix.

Cons:

le prix des restaurants dans l'hôtel. Excessif par rapport aux restaurants aux alentours. La prestation pour les ongles, cher par rapport à la qualité. La personne qui a fait les ongles pour ma compagne était très gentille mais elle manquait de savoir faire.

Pros:

The pool is really good as is the breakfast

Cons:

Rude staff at the check-in counter manager didn’t realise I understand Vietnamese and was talking very poorly about. He should not be in Managment Or customer service type roll. I didn’t catch his name but he was the manger in duty when checking out in the 30th at 6:30pm.
Note this was my 5th stay at the hotel wint be returning unfortunately:

Cumple su función
Pros:

El hotel cuenta con una enorme piscina en la azotea que, a pesar de la falta de mantenimiento, merece la pena visitar. La habitación amplia y cómoda, los desayunos tipo bufet con buena variedad.

Cons:

Cómo he dicho antes, el aspecto del hotel, a pesar de que tan solo tiene 6 o 7 años, parece algo falto de mantenimiento sobretodo la azotea con la piscina infinita enorme. Por lo demás es el típico hotel de ciudad enorme y sin alma.
