Great location. A very good tidy clean hotel with a good breakfast. Rooms small'ish but good comfortable bed and clean
Staff are helpful but unfortunately I did get my Bose Headphones stolen from my room during my stay so be careful with leaving valuables.
This is in a great location to be able to step out of the hotel and have a number of shopping and dining options. Hotel itself is lovely and rooms are well appointed.
The room was modern and perfect for a single traveller. Well maintained hotel with great reception staff. Super professional concierge and nice pool area with great dining and lounging areas. The location is sublime.
Location is excellent with multiple restaurants and the mall in walkable distance. The hotel is across from the Marriott. Hotel restaurant menu is limited, not so much of fruits or yogurts option.
This hotel is in a safe and accessible location within Melrose Arch. The retro decor takes a while to get used to but don’t let that put you off. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast’s spectacular. The best part of the hotel is the people. From the front desk to the restaurant to the laundry facilities, everyone is incredibly friendly and efficient. I have stayed here multiple times with my family and alone, and will keep on coming back. Very good value for money.
The staff is absolutely phenomenal. From the moment you enter the hotel every single person no matter the position is ensuring you are well taken care of. The front desk was so amazing. The dining room staff could not have been more accommodating. The servive was top notch and the food was incredible. The omelets were my favorite, cooked to perfection. The chef remembered my order the next day
Impressive!!! The bellhops were very efficient and friendly. Try this hotel you will not be disappointed. Also the decor is straight out of a architectural magazine, very beautiful.
It is a very decent and comfortable hotel. Location is excellent and near the shopping mall and spa. Security was excellent too. Check in was fast. Room service was good and they allowed a late checkout without extra expenses. We had 6 pieces of luggage and they allowed all to be stored in their luggage room, after checkout. The restaurant in the premises was excellent and overall the hotel was very good value for money.
I like the location of the hotel , close to shooping center and lots of good restaurants around it.
what I didnt like about the rooms, three wasn't enogh sapce to store your clothes and in the bathroom no room to leave your toiletery which made it very inconvenient.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
When we booked we asked for a room with bath and they accepted our booking. On arrival we were given a room without a bath and were informed that all rooms had no bath except for 3 in the entire hotel which are booked long in advance- we booked over 6months ago. Hotel looks tired and rooms very small. No toiletries were available in the room. Staff were outwardly friendly but totally matter of fact and not helpful at all. Was not told that parking was included by reception and the porter asked me why I was paying for parking since I was a guest. He directed me to reception where happy to then stamp the parking ticket but were not forthcoming as to why I wasn’t offered the same.
