The whole team had been really helpful during my staycation there with my partner.
Also love the room which is well designed and decorated. There was a minor issue with the drainage in the room and we got it fixed so effectively after reporting it to the front desk.
We will definitely stay again.

Two points because the room was okay and the staff was friendly. But the absence of coffee amenities and the discussion about this matter with the staff affected my whole stay in a negative way. I paid serious money to stay 12 nights and their only answer was: it was not included in your package. I asked for a quotation for a standard room, and a standard room includes coffee amenities. Nobody ever mentioned that the quoted package excluded coffee. And this is supposed to be a five star hotel. Very very disappointing. Nobody wanted to solve this problem for me and mentioned the name of a colleague who was on holiday. I was supposed to wait for this person to come back. Why? Because in such a big hotel from a huge company there is only one person that can solve this problem concerning a coffee machine and a couple of coffee capsules? There was also no bathrobe in the room, while there was a card mentioning a bathrobe. And the 2 cups that were in the room I used them for 12 days. They didn’t replace them with clean ones during my whole stay. It was ridiculous. Avoid this so called five star hotel.

this is my second time stay, last stay almost a year ago, hotel keeps well in the standard, they have lights in the entrance and outside bar area, it was so comfortable to eat and drink in this weather.
staff checked me in professionally and knew my stay record and my preference. so efficient and polite.
love their environmental efforts, no bottle water, but glass bottle for me to take water from floor water station, no much paper in room which is good.
the large TV is great with many channels and never feel boring.
Must try the roof top Japanese restaurant, very good quality at affordable price

I have been here for long stay and this is my third time stay.

This is a non smoking hotel. But each time i came to stay. There were some people smoking in their rooms. The corridor was full of cigarettes smoking smell. And the ventilation system was unable to clear up.

I complained every time and they only provide me another room on another floor , but this didn’t solve the problem, because there was someone in that another floor smoked and they could not detect. Cigarettes smell everywhere again.

They did not have the capacity to detect, to control, to deter people smoking.

In my previous stay, just adults, but this time , i have my children together. Children felt cigarettes smoke so irritative , they also had allergic reaction to the chemical fragrance spray. severe running nose , sneezing and blocked nose all night .
Need to take medication to decrease the symptoms.

And this time i stay for 30 days. So I must do my best to protect my children .
I complained to the front desk and he just refer to the in charge.
But the manager just called me back and said they could do nothing to stop people smoking tonight but to wait for tomorrow morning that the housekeepers would search for evidence of cigarettes smoking when they make up rooms.

This is ridiculous to me.

I said “ if you cannot provide a truly non smoking area to occupants as what the hotel promise to provide during booking, I have no choices but to leave the hotel for my children health sake, and the remaining unused nights should be refunded “

This location is good for me to visit my relatives so i choose this hotel again although price is higher than other nearby hotel. But, if this time , same fault without correction, i must leave and never come back again.

Room tip: don’t come if you don’t like smoke or have young children
