Rockefeller is nice but I would not recommend it due to the poor location, constantly busy restaurant, unruly guests and lack of cleanliness in some of the facilities.

Clean room with all the necessary ammenities. Pretty quiet, the only main noise would be the aircon or people walking past in the corridor. I ubered to the different places and back each day to ensure safety rather than walking from the hotel. I didnt use the gym or the pool, but both looked great and u was able to take a shower in the gym bathroom before my late night flight. Very safe as a solo female traveller.

Very nice modern, clean hotel with comfortable room and very friendly and helpful staff. Restaurant a bit hit and miss in terms of prompt service but the food was generally decent (the tuna was excellent, the chicken burger was a disappointing mess that fell apart). Decent wine list and the breakfast buffet was good with plenty to offer varying tastes.

The staff were nice, the rooms were lovely and clean, the breakfast was good and differed slightly each day. The location is a bit away from anything else but taxis are easy to get about. The roof top pool is more in a bar, so it’s a bit odd to try use it when others are fully clothed having drinks. I wouldn’t go expecting to use the pool at all.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is very modern. The room was very clean, but small. No desk/chair for using laptop. Only one luggage rack and no counters for other luggage. Bathroom was super small. Not well designed with a pedestal sink. No place to put toiletries and no bathtub. Shower was nice, but didn’t like only having rain shower head. The water pressure was low. Only two bath towels for two people. No extra towels for drying hair. We went to the buffet breakfast every morning, but not being from your country, enjoyed the different choices. But the food was served in “hot” serving dishes, but was not hot. Only warm at best. There was omelettes being made, but the chef didn’t understand “English”. Unfortunately, ignored us.
