The hotel lobby and reception area are lovely- well decorated and the bar is cosy. However the service was odd- never seemed to be anyone at the bar to get a coffee in the afternoons. One man I dealt w at reception was cold & a little rude. However the young lady (trainee) who checked me in was great. . Room was comfortable with nice large bathroom counter. However rooms were starting to look tired in parts & was dusty when I arrived. (Although they did send someone asap to clean around the bed specifically when asked). Also you cannot call down directly to the receptionists, it’s an automated system which was frustrating to use. The pool area is pleasant and the gym is well equipped, as is the ladies changing room. Walking distance to pike market and other landmarks in the city, be prepared for the hills! Overall a comfortable stay, bellboys and door staff were exemplary - specifically the lady with a headscarf, apologies I didn’t get her name. I didn’t eat at the hotel so cannot comment although there didn’t seem to be many vegan options when I browsed.

The room was beautiful, as always. The breakfast at George was delicious, great service as well. I was confused as to why the bar situation changed this visit. I went down to get a drink to bring up to our room on Saturday night and we had to wait in a line and couldn't just stand around the bar and order a drink. I hadn't experienced that during my last visit there and I decided to just get a drink at Shucker's instead.
