KuwaitThis is an exceptional hotel! It is perfectly located next to the train station. The staff goes over the top to make sure everything is perfect. We had room service in the middle of the night and they brought it right up quickly. The food was amazing and I wish we had more time! My mother-in-law even left a couple things behind when we left and they were able to locate it and ship it to us in a day or two. 5 star hotel for sure!

United Arab EmiratesThe location of this hotel is excellent. 2 mins walk to the main railway station and close to the Cathedral and the Christmas Markets. Very comfortable room.
United KingdomEVERYTHING! Staff was super friendly, especially Ruth! We travelled with our 8 month old and they put a crib, rubber ducky, baby towel, and baby wash in the room for him! The jet tub was great! The bed was comfy and the pillows were okay BUT room service will bring an extra pillow for you! Parking was decent. We parked in a parkinf Garage about...10min walk from the hotel and it cost 20€ per night. The hotel is literally across the street from the X-mas market! There were about 6 markets to visit! Along with the Cathedral and Info center! We will definitely stay again!!!
