"We travelled as a couple and our entire stay was exceptional! The rooms are large with modern and luxurious amenities, and have a great view of the city. We were also able to eat at the Chinese restaurant, which too was a very good meal. Breakfast was great! The gym has modern equipment and the rooftop heated pool has a great view. Overall we can’t recommend this hotel enough, and we’ll be back."
