Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has clean rooms with huge windows offering great views, but there was a strong cigarette smell initially and bright morning light. The service was top-notch, with helpful staff like Sally and Vivi. The location is mixed, being near a metro station but noisy for sleeping. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of delicious food. Overall, a good stay with minor drawbacks.
The hotel had very airy and bright rooms with a simple but elegant design that was very clean. I was attracted to the ambient vibe, but it was a bit uncomfortable due to the loud room and the small Asian style bed that was cramped for both my wife and me.
Staying on the 10th floor, the room was very airy and bright, which was very nice. The room was a little bigger, so there was more floor space. The service of the hotel staff, whom I had met in Taiwan, was so friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, only a 10-minute slow walk to the MRT. The dining experience, consisting of a sandwich and coffee/milk/juice, was the only thing we were disappointed in.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautifully modern and clean, with a fantastic view. However, the distance from public transportation was a slight inconvenience. The service was outstanding, making my trip planning a breeze. The dining options were varied and delicious, but the price was a bit steep.
The hotel offers spacious and well-equipped rooms with a great view, but it lacks soundproofing, so noise from neighbors can be bothersome. The staff provides excellent service and goes above and beyond to cater to guests' needs. The location is ideal for those with a car and provides easy access to nearby attractions, though dining options are somewhat limited. The dining experience, while featuring a nice mix of Western and Chinese cuisine, could benefit from a bit more variety. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly service.
