We enjoyed our stay very much. Loved the idea of choosing our pillows. Toiletries were very nice. High tea was lovely, and our interaction with the chef was unexpected, and appreciated. Room was quiet, as we had requested in advance, as theres a construction site right outside for the new metro station. We thought the staff were very professional and attentive. Room service food was of a good standard. We would definitely stay again.
