Excellent Romantic Break
Our welcome to the Hotel was warm and very helpful with great advice on local attractions. The Hotel is very comfortable and extremely clean and well presented. Situated at the Chain Bridge we had an excellent view of the Chain Bridge and Royal Palace, which was a picture at night. A big thank you to the staff as we had a very enjoyable stay. I highly recommend this Hotel

Great amenities but they did not
Great amenities but they did not work. The music system looked great but did not work I reportedbthis only to be told there is nothing they can do as it was Sat. The air con did not work 36deg and the room was unbearably hot again there was nothing they could do it was after all Saturday. English tv consisted of CNN sky news and BBC news. Pay per view $20.00 movie old movies Mini bars are always expensive but this hotel takesmthis to a new level. We spoke to people staying at the intercontinental who were veer happy. So I guss I will stay there next time. Can not recommend his hotel.

Great location
This is an excellent hotel and the service was great except for one exception. To get ice, you had to call room service. One night it took 1 1/2 hours to get the ice. By that time, my guests had departed. I called several times but nothing seemed to work. The Business Center staff was exceptionally helpful. They let me use the services for short email checks and helped me when I couldn't figure things out. The concierge staff was terrific, helping me with tours, church information, airport transportation, etc. The breakfast buffet was very expensive with no alternative. I ended up going to the grocery store and eating in my room.

The shuttle bus from the airport and return is a good value compared to a cab. On each trip there was only one other stop.
