Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It's a trip back into an imperial past, that is now open to many. High ceilings, a mix of wood floor and thick carpets, and staff in a range of uniforms. The level of English is good (sadly, my poor French wasn't up to the task of testing the staffs'). There is a good selection of eateries ranging from 'stuff yourself silly' to light bites. I highly recommend the Thai restaurant downstairs. I would avoid the coffee shop, where I was unsuccessful in attempting to buy over-priced cakes to take out - after the guy "serving" me walked off twice, to deal with other people, I decided that two can play the walking away game. So, overall good, if uneven.

A lovely comfortable stay
A really lovely stay in a comfortable, clean hotel. The swimming pool is amazing and the gym is good too. Our room was very comfy and we had a good night sleep. The evening buffet and breakfast were also really nice.
