    The location, decor, staff, and amenities

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    Location, buzzy atmosphere/sophisticated and tasteful decor, the staff, very comfortable room, nothing appeared to be too much trouble. Communal areas a bit limited for space. Lovely if no one else around but there always are people around.

    I found that the staff were ok , not great . I just felt their service was perfunctory and not the standard expected . Breakfast was again just ok . It could be so much better . Three people on a table designed for two is eminently unsuitable, especially when staff were so slow at removing dirty plates . Also the pastry and bread choices were very limited. Absolutely not value for money . Poor.

    It appears to be an American trend not to include breakfast in the rates as a given? All the taxes that are added on at the end, rates should include the taxes, after all they don’t change?

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Beautiful, boutique feel hotel in the heart of mid-town. The bar/restaurant played live jazz on the night it arrived and a trio the following night. My room was a junior suite and it was spacious. Bathroom had. a deep tub with a TV. Room service-breakfast eggs were cold.
