Pros:

At the heart of Old Town, ATH was excellent. A hotel fit for magazines, the lobby staff was professional and welcoming. I had a large room with the balcony facing the church and it was a great experience. Any outside noise was minimal surprisingly even with the church bells right across the room. Love it and would definitely stay again!

Cons:

Nothing. Loved my stay!

Great experience, but did not love the surprise fees that I was never able to get back.
Pros:

The hotel was absolutely beautiful and it was in a great location. The staff was friendly, the food was delicious, and very reasonably priced.

Cons:

There is a lot of noise from the neighborhood especially in the evenings. Lots of loud music from other venues.
The thing that was most aggravating is that I was charged a $250 incidentals, $50 a day for 5 days. I was told when we were checking out that I was going to get an email from the hotel showing that the refund would be processed. I have yet to receive any email, and have been unable to get anyone on the phone as the phone number listed online is inaccurate. I feel like I got cheated.

Hôtel pas sable mais le vrai 5 étoiles c'est le Hayat à 2 minutes à pied
Pros:

Le service

Cons:

C'est un 4 étoiles pas à 5 étoiles et il n'y a pas de concierge, l'hôtel gagnera à être rafraîchi et l'architecture est délaissée, les employés ne connaissent pas les points d'interaction principaux ne savent pas où acheter des chapeaux Panama ne savent pas où acheter des cigares ne savent pas où acheter des chakabana, à ce point de vue aucun soutien du personnel

Servicio destacado y personal profesional y muy agradable
Pros:

Sin duda la atención del personal y el mismo personal. Super colaboradores, buena actitud, proactivos, educados. En verdad que el servicio fue nivel TOP y la comida excelente.

Cons:

La ubicación es buena, solo que tiene Iglesia cerca y esos campanazos no dejan dormir tan bien, lo cual no es culpa del hotel. Esta un poco caro el costo por noche considerando que casi en frente tiene un hotel a la mitad de la tarifa y muy lindo también.
