Fodor's "This large but unassuming hotel is a good bet for visiting businesspeople, but leisure travelers can also find deals on weekends or during slow periods." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Attached to the Convention Centre, this hotel provides attentive service and excellent business facilities. The eighth floor is reserved for Priority Club business guests."
Star Service "Near the livelier, more polished Ritz-Carlton, this hotel is a leader on the second-tier that works well for conferences and FITs." Full review
