My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location was superb, just across from the Parliament building and close to the inner harbor. The rooms were freshly renovated with a very comfortable bed and all the conveniences needed for a great stay. The service was exceptional with helpful staff offering dry cleaning, housekeeping, and laundry services. However, the dining options were limited to sweet rolls only. Despite that, it was a great value for the money, and I would highly recommend it.

The hotel is conveniently located across the Parliament with easy access to tourist attractions and near the harbor. The rooms are freshly renovated with a very comfortable bed but do not have cooking facilities. The dining includes Japanese dishes with a rate exclusive feature for the guests. A pleasant stay overall, but some limitations were noticed in the room amenities.
