Absolutely one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in. We moved here from another luxury brand hotel after coming for dinner and drinks, and were completely blown away — so much so that we changed our stay. The hotel is spotless and beautifully new, with stunning amenities. The infinity pool is fantastic, and the breakfast selection is huge. What truly sets this hotel apart is the service. Everyone was exceptional, especially Tuan and his team in Gatz, Nipun at reception, and DJ Groove Rider, whose music in Gatz created a brilliant atmosphere. The rooms are outstanding. We had a beautiful double-aspect room with views of both the sea and the city. Everything felt fresh, modern, and incredibly well appointed, and the bathroom was exceptional. We honestly couldn’t fault a single thing. A truly brilliant hotel — we will definitely be returning and wholeheartedly recommend it.

We checked in and asked for an extra bed before check in and it took until 9PM to get the extra bed. We called reception multiple times and had to go down and follow the receptionist to have it brought up. The elevators had long wait time even with multiple spots with them, they also give you the wrong direction on the lights. It's hard to go to bed, there is a lot of noise even 15+ floors up. It's a beautiful hotel but the service and utilities are mediocre. Breakfast Buffet was really good.
