It could be better
The room we were given (up grade?) was a corner room (windows on two side of four walls) on the 16th floor, so it was very bright with a good view of the city. The size of the room was generous. However, it was surprise not to find tea/coffee making facility in the room, which would been very useful, since our stay was a-week-long one.. A couple of occasions, we found our bedroom and bath room not cleaned and rubbish bins weren't emptied after we came back from being out. As a five-star hotel, the facility and decor of the hotel could be more modern, we felt.. However, the service of the staff was pretty good. We liked the large bedroom and enjoyed special Japanese New Year's day breakfast!

Not great value for money!
Hotel in good location, near tram lines and the RAI Conference centre - aimed at business travellers. I was disappointed to find that the room cost did not include - city tax (payable on departure) or use of the pool / gym - this required a daily extra membership fee. Room service was not great, food cold, and breakfast exhorbitant cost for average meal. Suggest eating elsewhere - the good tram links make this easy! If I had been paying full price for the room, I would have been very underwhelmed - as it was, it didnt feel like good value for money.
