The outside terrace are not clean. And at the bar upstairs you have to reserved as people come from outside, as a hotel guest you don’t find a table and they let you know that they have a waiting list.

Pleasant stay but not sure if it's of 5* grade

The hotel is in a decent location within walking distance from the main shopping street as wel as the old city etc. Upon entry the hotel also has a good, clean interior with attentive and helpful staff - however, not all of them seemed very experienced, which, normally I wouldn't think about twice but still would not expect at a 5* hotel. For some reason the decor throughout is quite China-centric which I found curious. Whilst the rooms were being maintained and cleaned well, I still noted many scratches on the desks to the point that it actually looked dirty when it wasn't. Anything with a wood surface looked quite tired and one of our two dressing gowns also had tears on seams.

a smart but over-priced hotel

This is without doubt a nice hotel to look at once you are inside. Unless you get it as part of a package deal, it is ridiculously over-priced both to stay in and to dine at. 26 Euros for breakfast!!

Seuls les 3 premiers étages sont rénovés. La chambre 518 que j'ai occupée est vétuste, pas digne d'un 5 étoiles, un 3 étoiles tout au plus. Le petit déjeuner est parfait. A recommander pour son emplacement et pour les étages rénovés.
