Appropriately named - a true GEM

It is a wonderful hotel. Very modern, great room, generous tv, big comfy bed, rich cotton sheets, great location. Couldn’t ask for more! And the attached restaurant - terrific meal! Not cheap - but FAR above the average. Highly recommended if you enjoy a luxury stay.

I stayed in the Standard Queen Room and it is very small and noisy. When i asked the staff about it they confirmed that all the standard rooms on the side are smaller and noisier (because they are next to the hotel's air cons) than the king size rooms that face the street. Level 2 is the quieter rooms. Very disappointed that they didn't tell me this when i booked and hardly slept because of the noise.
