or mini bar, which I found quite odd. Instead there was a menu on the table and the room came with full butler service. Whenever you felt like a tea or coffee or a soft drink then all you had to do was order over the phone and your floor?s butler would deliver this within minutes. Whilst certainly different and a nice touch, sometimes you just want to lock yourself in your room and look after yourself. There is a little too much of a good thing and I feel this service could get like that.

The drinks
We were offered a choice of red or white wine with the meal, as well as sparkling and still water. Glasses were kept topped up without having to ask for a refill, which made it a little difficult to keep up with how much we were drinking; needless to say, it was quite a lot during the course of the evening.
