إقامة جميلة ومريحة، الغرف نظيفة والخدمة ممتازة، لكن ركن القهوة في الدرج يحتاج عناية أكثر من ناحية النظافة
Pros:

إقامة فاخرة جداً، الغرف واسعة ونظيفة، والخدمة ممتازة من جميع الموظفين. الإطلالة على المدينة رائعة، والموقع المرتبط بالمول كان مريحاً للغاية

Cons:

الأسعار داخل الفندق مرتفعة نسبياً، والموقع بعيد قليلاً عن الأماكن السياحية، كما لاحظت أن درج القهوة يحتاج إلى مزيد من العناية بالنظافة

Great Hotel
Pros:

Very polite staff, available to solve anything at any moment.

Cons:

I believe the space for hair, nails, and makeup could be elevated to better reflect the luxury standards associated with a Raffles-level experience. In my opinion, it currently falls short of that benchmark, and enhancing it would help maintain the overall level of excellence expected.
