I stayed in this hotel two years ago and it was perfect. I was disappointed this time around as it seems that everything, including the service, has deteriorated over the last couple of years. No more complementary sparking wine upon arrival, seating in the dining room and bar areas were worn and dirty, windows were malfunctioning, hairdryer was old and functioning poorly, shower had stains, service was slow. Not worth the money in my view.

What an awful experience, the service and standards are not anything I’ve known about this establishment. From security levels where lifts were not working or had access to anyone. The fire alarm going off in the middle of the night endlessly which increased my anxieties and stress levels ended up cancelling my meetings as I was sleep deprived and worried for my safety. I am not sure about returning at this stage it was such an utterly bad experience.

At least 4 people in the double room next door playing loud music. Complained to staff three times. Only when we complained at 1am did the staff move us. No VIP Expedia benefits. Just rubbish.
