Not as good as it could and should be....
The location is excellent - especially if attending a conference at the GRB. The hotel certainly believes that it is very good; the manager leaves a message in each room referring to attention to detail. But that is the problem. For such a "grand" and expensive hotel the details are absent. Polystyrene cups; limited supply of tea; no shoe cleaning supplies; no sewing kit; no mouth wash; modestly sized t.v; and furniture starting to look chipped and worn. I tried to get my room safe fixed but, in the end, gave up. And, inevitably, relatively high charge for parking; high daily charge for internet; and tax-upon-tax-upon-tax so that the final bill was considerably more than expected. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious and the bed was comfortable. Also no problem with the public areas.
