First off, I want to be clear that the hotel and the staff were very good. We had one of the junior suites (room 1020 on the 10th floor) and the room was brilliant... apart from the fact that one of the windows was not sealed properly, and this meant that the street noise kept us awake. If it had been sealed then I doubt if there would have been any noise.
Also, on the first night, I discovered someone asleep in the corridor near my bedroom door. It seems they had somehow got past the first locked door and their mobile phone alerts also work me up. I needed to tell them to go away. Not great.
On the plus side, the breakfast buffet was really good. The rooftop bar was fantastic.
Other reviews have mentioned the area around the hotel. There are a lot of people hanging around, but we didn't have anyone approach us, or try anything (aware of the pickpocket threat). As above, if the window seals were good, then it wouldn't have bothered us at all. There are some great restaurants and bars in the local area. Also good if anyone needs to be gluten free.
In summary, this was really close to a fantastic stay, but the window issue and the person sleeping did take the edge off it. A shame.
