Pros:

Very nice view and decoration. Finally the buffet was nice but not really intercontinental. Overall we had a nice stay but not up to the standard of a 4 star hotel.

Cons:

Ley points for a 4 stars hotels were missing: cleanliness, we noticed several stains on the pillows, carpets and bed sheets… Noice we can clearly hear the noice of the train just down the hotel (we were on 23rd floor). In the bathroom necessary items were missing s : no hand towels, no sleepers, no bathrobe, no head towels…

Lovely hotel with amazing sea view.
Pros:

The hotel is located right opposite the sea and has beautiful unobstructed full view from the room. It was a pleasure to watch from the room. The bathroom was plush and very nicely done.

The sky lounge on the 27th floor is perfect with a small infinity pool and amazing views of the sea and the city.

Great service from the staff at the lounge. The breakfast and dinner buffet are good value for money and have a decent spread.

Overall great value for money and worth staying in this lovely hotel.

Cons:

Nothing comes to my mind.
