1. Having stayed @ the Belvedere, it's hard to understand why it's only rated as #112.

2. We were part of a tour and I think we were in the cheap seats(on the 6th floor in a dated double x 2 room with the air-con unit in the window with a bit of board around it) that being said it was quite comfortable although it was hard to get used to being in a double bed when you are used to a queen, my husbands feet hung out the bottom.

3. (Patience isn't a virtue I am blessed with) ;-)If you like a bath after a hard days exploring give 1505 a miss as the plug in the bath is non-existant meaning its a shower only.

4. We looked at other hotels but all things considered we decided that this was as good a place as any to lay our heads after a hard day pounding the concrete.

5. Even though it was January and pretty cold outside the hotel overcompensated and put the heating on full whack making it uncomfortable and hard to sleep- even without any covers on.

7. We were there during the unseasonable warm spell 65 - 70 degrees in November and at night had a hard time regulating the thermostadt, and eventually decided on just opening the windows for fresh air.

8. the room was OK, beds were a bit hard and just a thin sheet as a comforter.

9. Room although renovated and very pleasing on the eye, the air conditioning system is really not up to standard and the bed is rock hard.

"Great Location; The room is lacking " Read full review on TripAdvisor 9/4/2011 Vote

10. Once in the room it was hard to believe you were in such a busy city as we did not hear traffic noise at all.
