Customer reviews of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel
|
"Good value, good location and friendly staff
" |
|
"This is a good hotel. Everything that you would expect from a prestige
brand. The one complaint is that it does not have the same character or
feel as some of the other Manadrin Hotels where I have stayed. For
example I was expecting a captains bar similar to that in Hong Kong.
Insted there was only a piano bar in the lobby. It is a shame that not
more had been made of it oriental and colonial past.
"
The best thing about Mandarin Oriental was:"The buffet was good and the staff well trained and extremely helpful.
"
The worst thing about Mandarin Oriental was: "Not having a proper bar.
