Summary: I was very disappointed in my stay at the Shangri-La. There were hidden charges for poor service that you feel you had to pay and the food was definitely average. Foods kept running out at breakfast and the hot buffet was often cold. We weren’t offered drinks the first day and also weren’t explained you could order an a la cartel option. The expensive afternoon tea - standard London prices was poor for what you got. Standard bread and very bland cakes that were very samey. It really was the most disappointing luxury / 5 star stay I’ve had. I would not return.

Summary: Beautiful modern hotel. Service was fantastic and easy to communicate thru WhatsAp. Plenty of space for a family of four in the suite and views were unbelievable. Had brunch one day and that was excellent as well. Only issue would be the location was not our favorite and felt like it was a bit of a hike to get anywhere.
