Amazing stay and Value for money
Very nice 5 star hotel. The mint restaurant was amazing. All the staff from valet, front desk and especially the restaurant were very friendly. Had an amazing dinner and wine at the Mint restaurant. They made fresh naan bread outside which was the best Naan I’ve ever had. Rooms are spacious and clean. Valet staff were very helpful and retrieved our vehicle quickly each time, the valet manager was on top of it each time.
This hotel is very well worth the price.
