Nobu is a truly lovely hotel. We Particularly loved the Zen Garden, and of course the fabulous restaurant. Our only difficulty was with understanding the lighting and blinds system in our room, which was a bit complicated.

Bedding, rooms first class. Staff not as attentive during breakfast. Lots of staff around... just our particular waitress was a bit missing. Never got a 2nd cup of coffee, nor offered a cup. I found myself looking around for her.. then just gave up. At time of payment... it seemed to lag, there were other conversations with her and the staff that seemed to prolonge her assertiveness to the task. There were only 2 or 3 tables in the whole restaurant.. so it was not that you guys were busy.

Modern luxury with great decor
Upscale, clean, comfortable. Bed was great, but bed pillows were not firm enough. On the 3rd floor closer to street was somewhat a little noisy from workers very early at 5:30 am. But overall a great stay!

Nice room but the staff need support
it very clear that the front desk staff has not been properly trained. When I check out they went rude but it seemed as if I was an annoying task that need to be dealt with when they where trying to do their real work. Not focus on the check out process or me the guest.
