Hit and Miss Service
Though most reviewers find front-of-house staff at this hotel worthy of its five-star status, several do not and have complained about the lukewarm reception received on arrival. Serving staff in other areas of the hotel also come in for flak, usually for slow and disorganized service.
negative:
Bothersome Breakfasts
A handful of travellers have expressed disappointment at this hotel's breakfast offering. Common gripes include the cost per person, poor presentation, unwiped tables with dirty tableware, serving staff not replenishing popular items on the buffet and long waiting times for hot drinks to be served.
negative:
Waterworks Woes
Several guests have found their sleep disturbed by noise from neighbouring rooms and corridors, leading some to bemoan the thin walls at this hotel. The sound of neighbours draining baths, running showers and flushing toilets seem to be the most irksome for noise-sensitive reviewers.
