Pros:

I really liked the location, the wonderful staff and amazing breakfast .

Cons:

I made the reservation for 3 people though the room was set up only for 2 people and there was no room to bring in another bed so had to downgrade us to another room in order accommodate 3 people and but no credit was giving to us!

Clean, well appointed, centrally located luxury hotel.
Pros:

Perfectly maintained. Jazz bar. Stunning pool and great exercise facilities.

Cons:

Had to discover many of the local, walkable attractions by sheer luck. No local map provided with suggestions for coffee, desserts, restaurants, etc. Concierges struggled a bit.

This is my favourite hotel on the entire planet
Pros:

This beautiful, luxurious hotel is located at the entrance of a subway startion and directly across the road from late-night malls and two historical and culturally important tourist destinations/walks. You could not ask for a better experience or location. The staff are incredibly attentive and kind and stepping in from the street to the hotel is like being transported to heaven!! The buffet is very reasonably priced given the quality and variety of food. Could not recommend enough

Cons:
