Ongoing Renovations
From April 2023 to October 2026, the hotel is renovating rooms across all floors, with work occurring between 7:00am and 6:00pm weekdays. During this period, varied noise levels, lift delays, and very limited carparking are expected. No access to the 3rd and 4th floors is available, and the lobby area remains unaffected.
