Nice building but for 5 star expected more

Our stay was ok. We booked the premier king room and bed was Superking which was great but everything else felt a little tired including the carpet. For a 5 star hotel I expected a lot more from the room, amenities. The bar was lovely for drinks, but at 1pm in the afternoon the chilled music dj was very loud, couldn’t talk at normal level, had to really speak loud…
