Grand stay in a grand hotel
Pros:

Lovely hotel, very grand and incredible location. Underground car park is very good (but not cheap) and someone came to meet us to help with bags and guide us to reception. Staff unbelievably polite, friendly and helpful and let me use the reception desk phone free of charge to call UK. Didn't eat in the restaurant but the cocktails from the bar were great (try The Duke!).

Cons:

Car park is quite expensive.

Very disappointing experience.
Pros:

Close to downtown

Cons:

We booked Dukes Palace Residence after being told it was connected to the main Dukes Palace Hotel and that we could enjoy the same facilities. This is very misleading.
Check-in was already a bad start. We arrived at 2:28 PM after an 8+ hour flight and a 1.5-hour train ride, completely exhausted. The receptionist kept insisting we leave our luggage and go explore the city instead of waiting. We stayed in the lobby for 30 minutes, clearly tired, and she made no effort to accommodate us or check if the room could be ready sooner.
The biggest disappointment came on our last day. After a long day walking around, we wanted to order room service. Only then were we told: “You are in the Residence, we don’t offer room service. You can order food and come pick it up.”
For a place marketed alongside a 5-star hotel, this is unacceptable. The Residence feels more like a random Airbnb using the hotel’s name, but without the service or comfort you would expect.

If I had known this beforehand, I would have never booked it.

Pros:

Café da manhã memorável! Tem uma localização fácil de deslocamento a pé pelos pontos principais. Quarto luxuoso.

Cons:

Dá para chegar a pé na estação de trem, mas não é tão “colado” nela. O local do vaso sanitário ficava com um cheiro forte (aparentemente algum problema no exaustor), por outro lado era separado do chuveiro, o que é um ponto positivo.
