5. I really debated whether to rate this 4 or 5 stars due to the noise issue and the lack of bathroom wow-factor compared to Ritz Carlton, but the staff is so competent and the little extras like the Keuring and Kindle provided in the room won the day.

8. The latter looks good, buzzy and with a nice bar but we did not get to eat there because of the booking issue so I can't comment on the food.

9. Admittedly 1 occasion was because we had a booking issue at the ES restaurant and they did a great job at the Oyster Bar accommodating us on one of the busiest nigths of the year.
