8/10 Very good

Facilities, room size, breakfast were great. Marred only by large noisy tour groups which were stranded for a couple of days. The wait staff were good. One receptionist and concierge less so - refused to extend our check out by an hour. We asked someone else the next day and didn’t have a problem.

I only experienced breakfast at the cafe. The beef empanadas and cappuccino was great. I didn’t eat at the restaurant. The comfort of the bed was ok, not the best for my preference. Everything else was clean, great location surrounded by shops and restaurants. It’s safe to walk around. It has an Italian feel with grand columns, and crystal chandeliers

I'm not sure that I have ever stayed in a hotel that felt as "grand" as this one (and I have stayed in many luxury hotels). Our room was fantastic (it was a Mirador junior suite; the view was outstanding, and I hear that you really want to stay in the recently-renovated area of the hotel). The pool was relaxing, rooftop bar great, and breakfast the best I've ever had. Next time I come back to BA, I won't stay anywhere else.
