Did not get the room I paid for!

I would have rated this hotel much higher if I had gotten the room I paid for. I paid for a Royal Room and that is NOT what I got. Very disappointed. I left a note for the manager when I left but so far no luck on getting the difference in money back. Never heard from manager. Otherwise the hotel is fine. The guy running the rooftop area was great. Don’t order the sushi though. They get it from down the street and it is not good. I would have rated this place higher if I had gotten the room I paid for.

I booked a high-end room. When I got to the hotel they put me in a basic room. They told me Expedia made an error and double booked the room and someone was already in my room. After multiple chats with Expedia nothing could be done. The hotel refused to honor a partial refund for the room I never received. I'm more upset with Expedia as I paid them and expected them to provide support.

The hotel was amazing. I had a good stay and everything surrounding is easily accessible. The Hotel Rooftop is Amazing! However Expedia needs to communicate the booking to the hotel quicker as I arrived and they had no knowledge of my fully paid booking. Only after really searching did the hotel find it. It really dampened my arrival spirits but otherwise all was well.

Stay was ok generally speaking

Generally speaking OK Staff really friendly at the reception Close to supermarkets and restaurants Close to market Bed quality was ok 5min car to victoria harbour Fresh bottles of water given on daily basis Wifi was ok Points needing improvement: Bedsheets not changed on regular basis. Breakfast minimalist - not the freshest croissants, hot food limited choice AC didnt work No international channels on TV + remotes system complicated
