extra waterodd discount
I found some aspects of my stay disappointing. The in-room water cost extra a detail I dislike at a so-called 5 star hotel. I also got offered restaurant menus lacking prices and a guest discount which felt odd. Consequently I chose not to eat at that restaurant. It made me doubt transparency of pricing at this hotel.

the staff were very kind and caring to our needs, it really made a difference! the bed was very comfortable with very clean and high-quality bedlinen. it felt so luxurious! i loved the fresh sheets!
the way the private city tour was promoted was a bit misleading. it felt more like a chauffeur service than a guided tour. i expected more historical insights!
