Fantastic luxury hotel with exceptional service
This was one of the best hotel stays that I have ever had. The room was wonderful and completely soundproof. The bed was comfortable, the shower was amazing, and there were so many special little details (like a motion light near the floor and in the WC for when you get up in the middle of the night.) The rooftop deck and pool were stunning. The location was near everything I needed and walkable to the old part of the city. Above all, the service was above and beyond.
