Excellent hotel; very modern and new. Only drawback was the check-in. Our flight arrived at 10 and we were at the hotel at 1045. Staff said room was ready as there is a queue for cleaning. I do understand that, but we finally got our room at 2PM. It would have been nice to perhaps bump it up for people waiting. Otherwise, hotel was excellent, food in the restaurant was lovely, in room massage was great. Staff was attentive and friendly. Highly recommended.

Loved this stay. The breakfast buffet is amazing and the staff was very informative about restaurant and helpful in making reservations. Bonus, the tram runs right by the hotel and in addition to flavored water in the lobby there was a small selection of Haribo gummies, so yummy!

Stayed in the junior suite and had breakfast included. Great spacious room. Buffet breakfast had it all including omelette and fried egg options. My only complaint was the trams run all night and are loud. Sometimes difficult sleeping.
