- bathroom finishing was not up to known kempinski standards - staff were not so helpful, e.g. after check in I had to wait one hour for my luggage to be delivered to my room , another example staff had to reach out after check out to bill me for 4 $ ( yes you're not mistaken, it's four USD) worth of peanuts, although I paid almost 700 USD for 3 nights

The property is very small and outdated for the rate and a "luxury" category. It is a very nice "boutique" hotel with great location and view, however, you can see a lot of wear and tear. The cleanliness was also disappointing, the carpet was obviously dirty, there were a lot of finger prints and stains on the high touch areas, also we were scheduled for a linen change but they skipped it because we were checking out the following day. The water pressure was very weak as well. The bed and linen though were very good quality. Staff are very nice however they are very selective to allow certain cars to pull in for drop off/pick up which was not expected from a luxury hotel in this area. For the price I would rather stay at Four Season or Intercontinental next door.

Overrated & overpriced
I spent almost a week at this hotel and it is definitely not a 5 star hotel — for these reasons: 1/ the bed mattress is uneven and has a huge dent - I called reception, a guy came flipped the mattress and said mattress was bought a month earlier. 2/ the bathroom sink and bathtub get clogged every single time you use them. And the hair dryer doesn’t work. 3/ upon arriving - reception insists you pay all your stay upfront. I paid three days upfront and said on fourth day I would pay the rest - i was awaiting a transfer. They proceeded to lock me out of the room every single day. Apparently this is a common practice. I’d arrive exhausted late night after my conference - and find my key card disabled. 4- the noise level inside hotel is pretty bad. Around 5am the service doors in each floor start opening and slamming as hotel employees begin moving around. This is in addition to noise from traffic on the busy corniche road. This hotel is not worth $250 a night — should be half of that.
