IrelandVery friendly staff, great service all round, room really nice, clean and comfortable. Spa is small and a bit crowded but fine if you don’t mind waiting a bit. Had half facial, half body scrub treatment which was excellent. Lunch at Galvin restaurant was very enjoyable with excellent service again. Will certainly stay there again.
United KingdomThe bed and pillows were so comfortable and the mirror in the bathroom was completely heated therefore, when we both have a shower it didn’t steam up. The staff are so friendly and accommodating, we will most certainly be returning. The highlight of our experience was the fact we were upgraded upon arrival, the room was luxurious had robes and slippers.
United KingdomVery nice boutique luxury hotel Excellent location Friendly staff
CyprusStaff were so helpful and could not have been better. Our room was amazing as we were given at upgrade and although we were only there for a very short space of time it was the best experience .

United Kingdomexceptional service, great location but very expensive.
United KingdomGreat location across the street from Green park, even though it’s located on the busy street it isn’t noisy. Polite and friendly staff, always checking if we didn’t need anything. Room was always nice and clean.
SlovakiaVery comfortable with good facilities and helpful staff. The food in the restaurant was excellent and there was a variety available to cater for all tastes and dietary needs.
United KingdomThe location of the hotel was perfect and the staff on the front desk couldn't have helped any more than they did. Bar was lovely with beautiful cocktails. Slept really well in a very comfy bed and room had everything we required.
