This is one of the most annoying hotels I’ve ever stayed in. To get cutlery delivered to your room at night, you need to pay a $15 delivery fee, or go downstairs and collect it yourself. the 5* status is an absolute joke. there is a labyrinth of fees and up charges to navigate, with plenty of stupid ways they extract $40-80 from you per night for stuff you never asked for. If you have a function here, highly recommend the hyatt next door.

We upgraded to a river view room at the hotel. The view was very beautiful and pleasing to the eye. The room was very clean and the bathroom layout was good. The hotel lobby provides free teas of all kinds. I really like hot apple tea, especially when I come back from the cold outside and drink a cup of hot apple tea in the hotel lobby. It's very comfortable. I would also like to praise the front desk staff and manager of the hotel. The service was very good. Once we came back and the room was not cleaned, the hotel waived one day's room fee and some other fees. This is what a high-end hotel looks like. I am very happy that I have always liked staying at InterContinental Hotels. I also booked Christmas dinner at InterContinental Hotel in New York. They really have good service. I will continue to stay in the future.
