9.6/10 Exceptional! (470 reviews)

Room as immaculately clean. Steam shower was amazing. A little annoyed about the A/C, it turns off when you leave the room, so it didn’t stay cool in our room when we were gonna all day. Spa access was a lil confusing, it wasn’t use as you wish, you had to reserve a slot in a 3hr window which was at dinner time. This resulted in us only using the spa once. Breakfast had a wide selection, with a small cook to order menu. Was delicious and quick. Bed was extremely comfortable. Tram station for the T2 line was right in front of the hotel, when coming from the airport you have change T1 line to T2 line, but very simple.
