Rooms to avoid

Best views
Guests may be able to enjoy views of the surrounding cityscape from higher floors (4th and above), although the views may be partially obstructed by other buildings.

Floors 3 and 4 are likely to be relatively quiet, considering the hotel's layout and the fact that they are not the highest floors.

Insider tips
Consider requesting a room with a window on the west or east side to enjoy some natural light and a glimpse of the city, while minimizing the impact of street noise. If you're sensitive to noise, consider arriving early for check-in to secure a room on a higher floor, or ask the hotel staff if they can accommodate your request.
