Tolles Hotel wenn man nahe an der Oper und beim Stadtzentrum sein möchte, preislich am oberen Limit.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr gut.
Der Valetservice hat hervorragend funktioniert.
Der kleine Geburtstagskuchen für meine Partnerin (vom Hotel offeriert) inkl. einer Karte war auf dem Zimmer bei Ankunft, haben wir sehr geschätzt.

Cons:

Als Geburtstagsüberraschung wollte ich eine Flasche Champagner und einen kleinen Kuchen auf dem Zimmer haben bei Ankunft.
Es war für mich eher gewöhnungsbedürftigt, dass ich diesen (Champagner) bereits im Voraus zahlen musste und nicht während dem Aufenthalt.

In einem 5-Sterne Haus würden wir aber frischen Orangensaft ohne Aufpreis erwarten, zumal die Zimmerpreise im oberen Segement (einfaches Zimmer bei CHF 1'000.-- pro Nacht) waren.
Evtl. auch bedingt, durch die Konferenz welche zu diesem Zeitpunkt statt fand.

Die Wartezeiten für den Einlass ins Restaurant (Frühstück und Abendessen) waren eher lang.

Das tägliche Guthaben, welches als Konsumation verbraucht werden kann (so wurde es uns beim Check in gesagt), wurde bei der Schlussrechnung nicht in Abzug gebracht.

Basically it was a quite experience
Pros:

Its location and coziness

Cons:

Room is a little too dark. Since our room was rushed to be cleaned, quite a few things in the bathroom were not placed properly. The worst experience was to find water boiler which was stuck in the drawer, so hard to boil the water. Should find a better place for it. We went to the 7th floor bar and was told no hot water there since it was bar… no flexibility.

Great location. Extortionate!
Pros:

Location.
Staff.
Food.
Comfortable room.

Cons:

Being charged extra for breakfast when you’re paying almost £1000 a night is beyond a joke. The hotel is massively overpriced.

Pros:

I recently stayed at this wonderful 5-star property, and in almost every respect, it lives up to its luxury reputation. The amenities are world-class, the dining is exquisite, and the front desk staff went out of their way to make my stay comfortable.

​However, my experience was tarnished after checkout. I accidentally left a pair of pyjamas in my room. When I realized this shortly after leaving and contacted the hotel, I was informed that housekeeping inspected the room and found nothing. Given the high standards expected of a 5-star establishment, I am disappointed by how this was handled. Either the room was not thoroughly cleaned before the next guest arrived, or personal belongings were mishandled without accountability.

​While the property itself is beautiful, this lack of attention to detail and failure to recover lost property leaves a bad impression. I hope management addresses their housekeeping protocols, as a true luxury experience requires seamless service from check-in to post-checkout.
