Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This was the worst hotel I have been to in years. My room phone 1624 was not working for the whole 5 days I stayed there. I could order anything from the room. If I needed anything from toothpicks to an emergency kit, I had to go downstairs from the 16th floor. I reported it every single day, sometimes twice a day. They wrote it down on papers and never did anything about it, like never. It was the worst trip and stay asides the gym facility and friend staff that bit was terrible considering I paid more than $1k for 5 nights in a junior suite that was broken. The hotel is not worth it at all.

Disliked: Staff & service
The public areas are lavish but service levels for a 5 star international hotel were dreadful. It felt like a load of concessions rather than a joined up business. I was told I couldn’t sit in the bar area by the spa as I had bought my drink at another bar. That’s absurd. A few weeks of training could solve a lot of the problems.

The staff around the hotel do not acknowledge the guests. House keeping do not come around every day and i had to make a complaint to have my room cleaned, and only got a sorry from the manager. The restaurants and Japanese garden within the property were the best parts of my trip.
