Liked: Staff & service, amenities
All the staff are brilliant, friendly and courteous. We were disappointed with the room, for a premium king, the room was small with very little storage for two people's clothes. Whilst the room was clean, it appeared 'tired' and needed some TLC. We had to request bathrobes and ask them to hang part of the curtain that was hanging off. Great location and fabulous staff.

Great location with an amazing rooftop bar. Comfortable bed, plush furniture, surprisingly quiet, felt the reception staff could have been more helpful and friendly, parking price reasonable, loved the art deco and NY vibe. Celebrated hubby's birthday which I advised in advance but hotel didn't make any efforts like other hotels have in the past, small touches would bring the hotel to the next level. Would be nice to gain prefered access to The Pink Lady. We loved our stay though and would stay again.

The staff were very friendly. The room was clean and looked just as advertised in the pictures. The thermostat worked fine, so room temperature regulation wasn't an issue. Also, I didn't hear any construction noises, like some of the reviews mentioned. Overall, a very good experience! The only area of improvement for the hotel is the water pressure and temperature. It was fine for me, but my partner prefers it a bit hotter. We were looking forward to using the rain shower, but due to the lack of water pressure and temperature, it was quite an underwhelming experience. With that said, I'll happily book a room in the Muse Hotel again.

We enjoyed staying at this property, although cleanliness could have been better. For example, we noticed the extra blanket given had stains all over it which was pretty gross as it was obvious that it had not been washed for some time. The location was great and it had everything we needed but thought attention to detail could be better. The rooftop was great too.
