Honest review

What could be better

  • The hotel needs to streamline its afternoon tea service to prevent delays where guests wait up to 45 minutes for their orders to arrive.
  • Management should ensure a higher standard of craftsmanship for pastries, ensuring visual details—like clean edges on cakes and smooth finishes on scones—reflect a luxury experience.
  • Staff must be more diligent in honoring anniversary or birthday requests, ensuring celebratory plates and gestures are delivered proactively rather than after the guest prompts them.
