The staff were excellent co-operating and were around whole time. My room was beautifully designed & silent and overlooked mountain. The property was in the centre of the city.

    We stumbled upon this venue by chance and enjoyed an unforgettable stay. Everything was top-notch. The staff was incredibly helpful, accommodating, and always greeted us with a smile. Our room was comfortable and always kept clean. This place is situated in the bustling heart of the city with plenty of shops, restaurants, and sights to explore. We were able to take advantage of the 24-hour room service and quickly became regulars at the bar/lounge area. Additionally, the hotel staff provided a legendary level of customer service, always going above and beyond to assist us with whatever we needed.
