Star Service "The staff too is professional if somewhat cool, and as emotionally detached as the Secret Service agents who shadow some of the guests staying here." Full review

Avoid rooms facing the Crystal Terrace, as it is often raucous with functions and parties.

For best views and spaciousness, ask for a room with two queen-size or one king-size bed facing Union Station and/or the National Postal Museum. For the quietest rooms, request a room on the top floor, to escape both the sounds drifting up from the Dubliner (live music nightly!) and traffic noise.
