Reviews

• Exceptional – J from Canada (10/10)

  there is very little to dislike about the whole experience but I have made a few comments below. huge room with wonderful comfort and everything anyone would need. lovely helpful staff . lots of options of places to eat. swimming pool was lovely. good room service.

• Amazing – thank you! – Simon from Singapore (10/10)

  Historic, has been beautifully renovated. Rooms are great, service incredible.

• I loved the way you have preserved the historical feel of the building, magic! – Catherine from Singapore (10/10)

  Room: Loved the room, and the bath tub. My only reservation is with respect to the bed-side light. I think it would be helpful if it could be operated by a simple manual switch. When one needs to get up to go to the bathroom, it's confusing to have to look for the i-pad, and it causes an interruption to the pattern of drowsiness. Also, please provide milk or creamer. I particularly commend housekeeping on the scrupulous cleanliness, very much appreciated.
  Breakfast: Okay, I will be frank – would it be possible to have butter and marmalade made available, without having to ask for them specially. And I suggest that the coffee was too strong, and once again why no milk. It's good to be offered milk when the coffee/tea order is given.
  Location: Could not be better. Thank you for the wonderful gardens in the courtyards.
