This is a beautiful hotel, with very tastefully decorated rooms, lobby area and restaurant areas. We found the room on the 7th floor to be quiet with very effective blackout blinds and draperies. The air conditioner unit was a bit overly enthusiastic in its output but quiet about it. Security to the room was entirely lacking. Anyone could use the elevators to access any of the floors. Parking was very convenient to access from the street, with a bit of a curious maze to get from the underground parking to the lobby but they reward you at the check in desk with a nice chocolate when you're successful. The hotel was easily walkable to the waterfront area, citadel, gorgeous parks and dozens of restaurants.
Incredibly unique ceiling in the lobby area

Great hotel.

Comfortable room and seating area and big plus a kettle in the room. Not so good was the extremely small bathroom with no ventilation or space to put anything. Hotel staff were all amazing and friendly a good stay overall.
