My room was located on a non-smoking floor, but when I got into the room I smelt cigarette smoke. This was bad, as I hate the smell of cigarette smoke in my room. This happens sometimes when you...

The room we had was amazing, large, luxurious with a huge bed and great en suite. Purchasing it through Expedia meant we got a really good deal and when we got to the hotel there... More

The breakfast, with big variety of different cuisines, was very memorable, also because of perfect service. I... More
