Breakfast was of high quality.

I stayed there through a referral, and it was a wonderful stay with a welcome drink, a warm greeting from the GM, a late check-out until 6 PM, free laundry service, a delicious breakfast buffet in the executive lounge, and access to the rooftop bar and gym.

The room itself was so spacious and clean, and the view was beautiful.
Tripadvisor, October 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
Cramped in a 1970’s ambiance with dirty velvet chairs and a vinil carpet dirtier than a small Bangkok alley.
Booking network, August 2026, rated 2/10 by this guest
Too few mentions to judge: beds, pool, room condition, quiet at night and value.

Unfortunately, Vertigo the topmost skybar was under renovation when we were there, but having been there before, I can tell you it lives up to its name.
