Thank you for your very kind words, hope to see you again soon.
Lovely hotel, very comfortable bedroom and facilities, accommodating staff. However a few things could be better.
Invest in a doorman, those extremely large doors to the hotel are a chore for some people to open, as noticed over 3 day stay e.g. elderly guests, people with buggies.
Have a segregated area in front of the hotel for taxi drop offs, 3 taxis we got to the hotel were 1 or 2 deep into the busy street, check out hotels in New York on how to deal with this.
Different guest’s Name on the TV system throughout our 3 day stay ??
Couldn’t find a hard copy of the Room Service Menu in the room. Rang reception and was informed it was on the TV system, after 20 mins of searching, it wasn’t!!
Rang reception again, a poor photo copy of the bar food menu was delivered by hand 30 mins later. We went out instead but would have ordered drinks from Room Service. No mini bar!!
Very noisy behind the scenes area adjacent to the bedroom, so had to be prepared for an early rise, as a lot of banging and clattering of trollers and doors.
