The Kingsley is close to everything. I could not fault the staff for impeccable service. Though it has listed soundproof windows, it was still not immune from outside noise. One thing that customers should check, is that the quoted price from wotif matches the price paid at check-in. I am still following this up, hopefully there will be a good reason why I paid more than wotif's price.

Disappointing Stay at Crystalbrook Kingsley

I previously had a great experience at Crystalbrook Kingsley during a business trip, so I was looking forward to my stay this time. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. The room configuration was a bit unusual but manageable. However, the bed was not comfortable, which made for a restless nights. I was also surprised to find that there were no robes or slippers in the room. After requesting them, only one set was provided. Another frustration was the lack of a bottle opener in the mini bar. I called to request one, but it took over an hour to arrive. By that point, I had already gone up to the rooftop bar to ask the bartender for help. Overall, a disappointing experience compared to my previous visit. I expected better attention to detail, especially for a hotel of this standard.
