club lounge access afternoon tea presentation warm welcome closed restaurant dirty tables luxury hotel
the club lounge access was great i especially liked the afternoon tea presentation. theresa provided excellent service. hashani and askandar gave me a warm welcome on arrival.
the hotel advertises multiple dining options yet one restaurant was closed for a private event. breakfast felt chaotic with dirty tables. the overall organisation did not match a luxury hotel i would expect.
